BY: M. of A. Jones
 
        CONGRATULATING  Donna  Dixon  upon the occasion of
        her   retirement   after   almost   30   years    of
        distinguished service to Clinton Community College
 
  WHEREAS,  It  is  the custom of this Legislative Body to acknowledge
the distinguished athletic coaches who serve the  youth  of  this  great
Empire  State  and  who  have  distinguished  themselves and their teams
through outstanding commitment and exemplary athletic achievements; and
 
  WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and  in  full  accord  with  its
long-standing  traditions,  this  Legislative  Body  is  justly proud to
congratulate Donna Dixon upon  the  occasion  of  her  retirement  after
almost  30  years of distinguished service to Clinton Community College;
and
 
  WHEREAS, In 1995, Donna Dixon began her  coaching  career,  spanning
almost  three  decades,  at  Clinton  Community  College  as a part-time
basketball coach until 2000, when she was brought on to coach full-time;
during this period, she also worked with  both  the  girls'  soccer  and
softball teams; and
 
  WHEREAS,  Donna  Dixon  then  changed  course  and  coached at Seton
Catholic for three years before returning to Clinton  Community  College
for two years until she officially retired in November of 2021; and
 
  WHEREAS,  In  her  almost  30 years of coaching, Donna Dixon led her
teams to great success,  including  the  2010  National  Junior  College
Athletic Association Division III Soccer Championship; and
 
  WHEREAS,  Throughout  her tenure, Donna Dixon truly cared about each
and every one of the 500 students she has worked with  at  both  Clinton
Community  College  and Seton Catholic; she has always stressed patience
is the key to  success,  and  it  is  obvious  her  mantra  has  greatly
benefitted all the student-athletes she has helped to reach their goals;
and
 
  WHEREAS,  Before  coaching, Donna Dixon played sports at Plattsburgh
State from 1985-1990, where she was selected to the SUNYAC all-star team
all four years and named Player-of-the-Year her junior  year;  in  2004,
she was inducted into the Cardinal Hall of Fame; and
 
  WHEREAS,   In  her  much-deserved  retirement,  Donna  Dixon  enjoys
spending time with her beloved daughter Addison, and continues  to  work
at Clinton Community College in admissions and as an instructor; and
 
  WHEREAS,  It is the sense of this Legislative Body to now record its
recognition and appreciation in  honoring  an  outstanding  coach  whose
dedication   and  achievements  have  been  instrumental  in  developing
character and sportsmanship in  high  school  and  collegiate  athletes,
exemplifying  the  ideals  and  values cherished by this great State and
Nation; now, therefore, be it
 
  RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its  deliberations  to
congratulate  Donna  Dixon  upon  the  occasion  of her retirement after
almost 30 years of distinguished service to Clinton  Community  College,
and  with  her  great  success  in  all  her future endeavors; and be it
further
 
  RESOLVED,  That  a  copy  of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
