House Resolution No. 450.
A resolution commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Detroit Racquet Club and expressing appreciation for their valuable contributions in Michigan.
Whereas, It is with deep appreciation for the significance of this milestone that we commend the management and staff of the Detroit Racquet Club as they gather to mark the 100th anniversary of this outstanding group. While the members of this distinguished organization celebrate 100 years of service, we offer our thanks for the many contributions they have made within Detroit and throughout Michigan; and
Whereas, The Detroit Racquet Club's building was designed by Albert Kahn, a distinguished Detroit architect, and its origins can be traced back to 1902. This facility still stands today and has served as the clubhouse of the Detroit Racquet Club for the past 100 years; and
Whereas, The Detroit Racquet Club has provided facilities throughout the years for a range of racquet sports, including the game of racquets. This game originated in England at a debtors' prison, where the prisoners engaged in sports to squander time. Eventually, various private schools and universities took up this game; and
Whereas, In the years that have followed since they first came together, the Detroit Racquet Club has adapted to changes in society, membership, and expectations. This ability to grow and change has shown that the members have maintained their purpose to provide a place suitable for racquets, curling, general athletic, and other lawful sporting purposes; and
Whereas, With ceremonies to celebrate its history, the members and officers of the Detroit Racquet Club remember the vision of the many people and the hours and years of commitment that have brought the group to this point. Fittingly, as they look to the past, they will also be casting an eye to the future and to the many ways in which the Detroit Racquet Club will continue to reach out in our state; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Detroit Racquet Club and express appreciation for their valuable contributions in Michigan; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Detroit Racquet Club as evidence of our esteem.
Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,
Rep. Patterson moved that Rule 77 be suspended and the resolution be considered at this time.
The motion prevailed, 3/5 of the members present voting therefor.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. Hardman, Vander Roest, Bishop, Ehardt, Raczkowski, Zelenko, DeRossett, DeVuyst, Switalski, Lockwood, Daniels, Anderson, Sheltrown, Garza, Palmer, Pappageorge, Waters, McConico, Jacobs, Julian, Lemmons, Clark, Gieleghem, Adamini, Plakas, Jamnick, Neumann, Howell, Faunce, Voorhees, Bernero, Lipsey, Callahan, Spade, Rich Brown, Wojno, Hale, Kowall, Rocca, Dennis, Vander Veen, Hager, Shulman, Drolet, DeWeese, Toy, Richner, Richardville, Hansen, Vear, Kolb, Reeves, George, Murphy and Birkholz offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 451.
A resolution honoring St. John Hospital and Medical Center's 50th anniversary.
Whereas, We take great pride in celebrating the achievements of St. John Hospital and Medical Center on the occasion of its 50th anniversary; and
Whereas, The hospital which opened in 1952, has grown into a regional referral teaching hospital and member of a comprehensive health system. The founding values and principles of the Sisters of St. Joseph have remained a common thread that makes St. John Hospital a unique health care provider, employer, and community resource. St. John Hospital and Medical Center, as a community based facility, continues to provide close, convenient, and compassionate care to patients and their families; and
Whereas, St. John Hospital and Medical Center has achieved a national reputation for excellence and has been ranked as one of the top 100 cardiovascular hospitals in America. St. John Hospital has grown from a 250-bed community hospital with 70 employees in 1952, to a 607-bed medical center with a 700 member medical staff and 4,900 employees; and
Whereas, From the first heart by-pass surgery performed in the 1970's, cardiac innovations have led to St. John Hospital offering almost every type of diagnostic, surgical, and nonsurgical cardiac treatment available. The Emergency Center of this hospital treats more than 76,400 patients annually as the major level-one emergency center for the eastside community; and
Whereas, St. John Hospital Neonatal Care Unit was one of the first units in Michigan to specialize in caring for premature, low-birth weight, and high-risk infants and is the only neonatal intensive care unit of its kind on the east side of Detroit. St. John is also a regional referral center for high-risk pregnancies. In 2001, 3,893 babies were born at the ultra-modern St. John Birthing Center, one of the largest in the country. They were able to serve 31 mothers, infants, and families for labor, delivery, recovery, and postpartum care in homelike private rooms; and
Whereas, The first laparoscopic gallbladder removal procedure in Michigan took place in 1989, at St. John Hospital. Laparoscopic surgery techniques are used in many areas. This procedure makes it possible for patients to return home the day after surgery. More than 80 of these operations have been performed so far, the most in the state. Their organ transplant program has one of the highest success rates in the country with more than 500 transplants performed; and
Whereas, The Van Elslander Cancer Center's (VECC) state of the art facility focuses on achieving harmony of the body, mind, and spirit by offering holistic treatment and conventional cancer therapies. Affiliated with the University of Michigan Cancer Center Network, the VECC, University of Michigan Hospital, and other St. John Health System hospitals, treat more than 14,000 new cancer cases every year, the most in the region. Its patients have access to every national clinical trial, which is one of only 13 such centers nationwide; and
Whereas, St. John's medical education programs are affiliated with Wayne State University. This opens new opportunities for cooperative teaching arrangements and provides a major teaching facility with faculty and resident doctors in numerous specialties; and
Whereas, Thousands of patients, medical staff, employees, volunteers, and community supporters have come together during the last 50 years to foster the mission of the Sisters of St. Joseph, "To Heal To Serve". Together, this assures that St. John Hospital and Medical Center will continue as a valued community health resource; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body honor St. John Hospital and Medical Center's 50th anniversary; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the St. John Hospital and Medical Center as an expression of our highest regards.
Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,
Rep. Patterson moved that Rule 77 be suspended and the resolution be considered at this time.
