House concurrent resolution in memory of Elana Grace Korey and recognizing August 2, 2026, as 802 Day in Vermont

This legislative resolution honors the memory of Elana Grace Korey, a Vermont resident who died in a fatal crash caused by impaired and reckless driving. It officially designates August 2, 2026, as "802 Day" to raise awareness about the dangers of drunk driving and to support the Ollie's Angels Foundation, a nonprofit established by Korey's parents. The measure directs the Secretary of State to send a copy of the resolution to the foundation, which promotes sober driving and provides safe ride alternatives to young people.

MINOR
This is a purely formatting change between two official versions of the same concurrent resolution. The text content of all Whereas clauses and Resolved sections is identical; only line breaks, header layout, and document template changed from one official format to another.
TECHNICAL

Header reformatted from a simple 'R-357 / 2026' label to the formal House of Representatives layout with 'State of Vermont,' 'Montpelier, Vermont,' and 'Concurrent House Resolution H.C.R. 299.'

All Whereas clauses and Resolved sections were re-wrapped with different line breaks but contain identical text content.

Footer reference 'VT LEG #389917 v.1' was removed in the new version.
