Senator Lehman adjourned in honor of all the 2008 Senate Scholars for their dedication to learning about state government this week and last week. Further, we wish to adjourn in honor of Chief Clerk Rob Marchant, Sergeant at Arms Ted Blazel, and their staff members who have so ably assisted these fine students. We especially wish to thank and recognize Erin Allers for her long hours and able leadership in directing the two groups of young citizen-scholars throughout the two weeks of the Senate Scholar Program.
