COMMEMORATING THE
2004 CHINESE TRADE MISSION'
WHEREAS, in 2002 Frederick County had the honor of welcoming members of
the Chinese Delegation, who came to our region to explore trade opportunities and
encourage continued exchange of future delegations as a means of increasing the
understanding of our cultures, education, and business development; and
WHEREAS, the Winchester-Frederick County Chamber of Commerce seeks to
continue building these relationships by sending its own delegation to China; and
WHEREAS, the goals of these exchange programs are not only the creation of
sustainable business relationships but also the creation of strong social bonds that will be
rewarding to both regions.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Richard C. Shickle, Chairman of the Board of
Supervisors of the County of Frederick, Virginia, do hereby thank the citizens of China for
the gracious hospitality that has been showered upon our local delegation and look forward
to continuing the efforts to build strong social and economic bridges between our two
regtons.
IN WITNESS THEREOF, I have set my hand and the Great Seal of Frederick
