Memorials, Recognition - Lily Shelton, Governor's Volunteer Stars Award -

House Joint Resolution 217 is a symbolic resolution honoring Lily Shelton, a volunteer from Anderson County, for receiving Tennessee's Governor's Volunteer Stars Award. It recognizes her community service, leadership as Interact Club president, and role in inspiring peer volunteerism, citing Tennessee's 1.3 million volunteers contributing $2.6 billion annually to the state economy. The resolution was unanimously passed by both legislative chambers and signed by the Governor in February 2025, but it has no legal effect or policy impact - it serves solely as a ceremonial tribute.
