                 In the House of Representatives, U.S.,

                                                          May 15, 2000.
Whereas in 1957 the Arapahoe Rescue Patrol, a non-profit organization that 
        assists law enforcement agencies, fire departments and search and rescue 
        missions, was established;
Whereas Stan Bush founded this program in 1957 to gather volunteers for 
        community service to meet in the basement of Fire Station 12 in 
        Littleton, Colorado;
Whereas this group has participated in 43 years of public service to the Denver 
        metro area including: conducting search and rescue efforts, assisting in 
        emergencies, and aiding in automobile accidents and fires;
Whereas over a thousand students have participated in the program and been 
        involved in 2,226 rescue missions and contributed countless thousands of 
        hours of community service; and
Whereas the commitment of these youths must be recognized to promote positive 
        after school activities for today's young people: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives that the 
Congress recognizes the Arapahoe Rescue Patrol of Littleton, Colorado for its 43 
years of service to the local community, strong commitment from young adults, 
and selfless acts of community service to encourage positive outlets for young 
adults, teaching them a sense of commitment, responsibility, and belonging, all 
qualities essential to provide youth with the tools they need to succeed in the 
future.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
