11 immigrants generations ago have evolved into a unique form of
12 entertainment enjoyed everywhere from our cities to the
13 campfires in the heartlands; and
14 WHEREAS, Thousands of Pennsylvanians thrill to this music and
15 dance in theater and communities throughout this Commonwealth;
16 therefore be it
1 RESOLVED (the Senate concurring), That the General Assembly
2 urge the Governor to declare the week of April 19 through 25,
