Senate recognizes Perry’s centennial and welcomes Girl Scouts of Utah to the floor
Summary
Senators presented a citation honoring the City of Perry’s 100th incorporation anniversary and welcomed the Girl Scouts of Utah, who distributed cookies and were praised for public‑speaking and leadership activities.
During a time‑certain on the Senate floor, senators recognized the City of Perry’s 100th anniversary and invited city representatives to the front for a citation and photographs. The reading clerk recited historical details, noting early settlers and the incorporation date of 1911.
Senator Knudson introduced Karen and Mark Cronin of Perry and presented the citation on behalf of the Legislature. "We honor the founders and current citizens of this important city in Northern Utah and extend congratulations on the 100th birthday," the citation reads.
Later, at 11 a.m., Senator Davis introduced members of the Girl Scouts of Utah, praising their mission "to build girls of courage, confidence and character who make the world a better place." Girl Scouts came forward to hand out cookies; senators thanked them and encouraged sales for the cookie drive.
Why it matters: These ceremonial recognitions provide a formal legislative acknowledgement of community milestones and local civic engagement by youth groups.
Next steps: Citations are entered in the legislative record and photographs were taken on the Senate floor.
