LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION commemorating the 15th Annual Kids Day
America/International, to be celebrated on May 2, 2009, in Oyster Bay-
East Norwich, New York

WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body that the continuing
welfare of the youth of the Empire State is greatly enriched and reli-
ably served by the good works and purposeful endeavors of individuals
and organizations committed to providing our youth with life lessons
which will help them become strong members and leaders of their communi-
ties; and
WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern and fully in accord with its long-
standing traditions, it is the intent of this Legislative Body to
commemorate the 15th Annual Kids Day America/International, to be cele-
brated on May 2, 2009, in Oyster Bay-East Norwich, New York; the event
will benefit a local charity and once again, the Police Department will
be on hand to fingerprint children for Child Safety ID cards and will
also generously donate a photograph of each child for their ID card; and
WHEREAS, Chiropractic offices nationwide participate in this meaning-
ful event, which will commence in Oyster Bay-East Norwich, New York,
with an opening ceremony to be held at 12:00 p.m., hosted by the All
Natural Healing Center office of Dr. Scott Cavagnuolo; and
WHEREAS, Kids Day America/International is a special day set aside to
address health, safety and environmental issues which affect us as indi-
viduals and as a community and was founded for the purpose of educating
families and communities about these important societal concerns; and
WHEREAS, To date, more than 2,000 communities have participated in
this event and more than 3,000,000 children and their families have
enjoyed the day throughout the world; the event is sponsored by chirop-
ractic offices to build health, safety and environmental awareness in
children; individual offices hold events for children and parents and
invite community leaders and local businesses to participate and impor-
tant information is provided on crime prevention, child safety, and
environmental awareness; and
WHEREAS, Chiropractors often give free spinal exams and information to
children, while participating police and fire departments present safe-
ty, fire safety, and drug prevention information, and boys and girls are
able to learn about healthy eating habits and the importance of exer-
cise; and
WHEREAS, The health and well-being of New York State's youth is the
responsibility of all and their safety is a significant concern for
parents, community leaders and healthcare givers; and
WHEREAS, Environmental welfare is of universal concern and deserves
the utmost attention; if started in childhood, proper health, safety and
environmental habits can be maintained for a lifetime, producing a
valued member of society and a responsible member of the community; and
WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body that when organiza-
tions and individuals donate their time and energy to ensure our chil-
dren's healthy growth and development, which will help them reach their
full potential to become the productive and responsible citizens of the
future, they should be recognized and applauded by all citizens of the
State of New York; now, therefore, be it

brated on May 2, 2009, in Oyster Bay-East Norwich, New York; and be it
