Honoring
the Village of Tontogany on its One Hundred Fiftieth Anniversary.
WHEREAS,
The members of the Senate of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio are
pleased to congratulate the Village of Tontogany on the auspicious
occasion of its Sesquicentennial; and
WHEREAS,
America is only as strong as her individual communities, which are
unique and which make significant contributions to the culture of our
state and nation. Incorporated in 1875 and named after Chief
Tondoganie from the Ottawa Indian Tribe, the Village of Tontogany has
experienced dramatic growth and change, and yet, commendably, it has
retained the many engaging qualities that have endeared it to
generations of inhabitants. Clearly, it has built on the best
traditions of the past to ensure a future filled with hope and
promise; and
WHEREAS,
Over the past century and a half, the Village of Tontogany has
enjoyed the benefits of a generous and civic‑minded population,
and those who currently make the community their home take great
pride in its rich heritage and its many local landmarks. Indeed, they
have exhibited cooperation, integrity, and a willingness to work
hard, and their efforts have certainly made the area a pleasant and
friendly place in which to live; and
WHEREAS,
The One Hundred Fiftieth Anniversary of the Village of Tontogany
offers its citizens the opportunity to share their memories and
experiences and to reflect on life in their close-knit community. A
vigorous commitment to public service and an earnest devotion to
lofty ideals have long been second nature to many of the village
residents, and vigilance, industriousness, and generosity have come
to typify their collective character; therefore be it
RESOLVED,
That we, the members of the Senate of the 136th General Assembly of
Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, pay tribute to the Village of
Tontogany on its Sesquicentennial and extend best wishes for
continued peace and prosperity; and be it further
RESOLVED,
That the Clerk of the Senate transmit a duly authenticated copy of
this Resolution to the Village of Tontogany.
