HCR 286 Vermont House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

House concurrent resolution congratulating Wassick Tire Service of Bennington on its 80th anniversary

This bill is a formal resolution that congratulates Wassick Tire Service in Bennington on reaching its 80th anniversary. It recognizes the business's long history, which began in 1946 by Steve Wassick Sr. after he returned from military service, and notes its evolution into a family-owned operation led by his descendants. The resolution highlights the company's consistent service to the community and its past recognition from local awards and the Vermont Veterans' Home. Ultimately, the bill directs the Secretary of State to send a copy of the resolution to the business as a gesture of appreciation.
