Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 21
(By Senators Boley, Barnes, Caruth, Deem, Facemyer, Guills, Hall,
McKenzie, Sprouse, Sypolt and Yoder)
Expressing the desire of West Virginians to change the welcome
signs from the "Open for Business" slogan to the "Wild,
Wonderful West Virginia" slogan.
Whereas, West Virginia offers majestic beauty from our
glorious mountaintops to our winding country roads to our
breathtaking rivers; and
Whereas, West Virginia's beauty can be seen from the Potomac
Highlands to the New River Valley, from the eastern panhandle to
the mountaineer country of north central West Virginia, from the
northern panhandle to the Metro Valley and from the Mid-Ohio Valley
to the southern coalfields; and
Whereas, This beauty is ignored by the welcome signs that
state "Open for Business"; therefore, be it
Resolved by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That the Legislature hereby expresses the desire of West
Virginians to change the welcome signs from the "Open for Business"
slogan to the "Wild, Wonderful West Virginia" slogan; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the Clerk of the Senate is hereby
directed to forward a copy of this resolution to the Governor.
