standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to commem-
orate the 30th Anniversary of the New York State Town Clerks Associ-
ation; and

with its mission to promote professional development of Town Clerks from
all across New York State by providing continuing educational resources
that are essential in helping these administrative leaders become first
