A RESOLUTION
Recognizing March 20, 2025, as Buc-ee's Day at the state capitol and celebrating Buc-ee's
and its presence in Georgia; and for other purposes.
WHEREAS, Buc-ee's is a chain of travel centers known for its award-winning clean
restrooms and abundant fuel pumps including diesel exhaust fluid, ethanol free fuel, and EV
charging stations; and
WHEREAS, Buc-ee's offers a variety of merchandise, from clever and quirky, such as
Buc-ee the Beaver inflatables with interchangeable party signs and Buc-ee's onesies for
babies and adults, to conventional and sophisticated, such as cast-iron skillets, specialty
wood cutting boards, and gold and silver jewelry; and
WHEREAS, Buc-ee's is especially known for its extensive assortment of drinks and food,
including but not limited to Beaver Nuggets, in-house made fudge, a wall covered end-to-end
with a variety of different flavored beef jerkies, and "fresh brisket on the board" that is
smoked in house and made into deliciously warm ready-to-eat sandwiches; and
WHEREAS, Buc-ee's started in Texas and has expanded to eight other states, including
Georgia, and has travel centers in Warner Robins and Calhoun, one scheduled to open in
Brunswick in June of this year, and another planned for Monroe County; and
WHEREAS, each location of Buc-ee's in this state brings jobs for the development and
construction of the travel center; adds full-time, part-time, and seasonal jobs at the travel
center; increases sales tax revenue from purchases of fuel, merchandise, food, and beverages
at the travel center; and encourages investment in the area surrounding the travel center; and
WHEREAS, Georgia travelers and travelers through Georgia deserve a safe, well-lit place
to stop, shop, refuel, and rest, and they can happily say "Meet me at Buc-ee's!" 24 hours a
day, 365 days a year; and
WHEREAS, it is abundantly fitting and proper that Buc-ee's be recognized for coming to this
state, stimulating the economy, and providing a cultural experience to remember and revisit.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES that
the members of this body recognize March 20, 2025, as Buc-ee's Day at the state capitol and
celebrate Buc-ee's for its presence in Georgia and extend best wishes for its continued
success.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Clerk of the House of Representatives is authorized
and directed to make appropriate copies of this resolution available for distribution to
Buc-ee's, the public, and the press.
