                            HON. KEN CALVERT

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, February 24, 1994

  Mr. CALVERT. Mr. Speaker, one of the things that makes America the 
truly great country that it is, is its spirit of voluntarism--the 
willingness of citizens from all backgrounds and occupations to give of 
their time and talents to make their communities better places in which 
to live and work.
  The community of Corona, CA, has been fortunate to have an 
exceptionally dedicated group of citizens who give freely of their 
energies and talents to make our city and country such desirable places 
to live. One of these exceptional citizens is Mr. Mark Costa.
  Mr. Costa has been involved in a wide range of civic activities. He 
has served on the Historic Preservation Society, the Chamber of 
Commerce Executive Committee and the Corona Public Library Board of 
Trustees.
  He is also the past president of the Corona/Norco Amateur Club, and a 
communications specialist with the Orange County Fire Department. In 
addition, he helped organize the Corona Police Department Emergency 
Communications Volunteer Program.
  Mark is a native of our county, and a graduate of Corona High School 
and Riverside Community College. He has been a successful businessman 
and a dedicated family man. He and his wife, Teresa, are the kinds of 
people we are proud to call our neighbors.
  On behalf of the citizens of the 43d Congressional District, I wish 
to extend my thanks and appreciation to Mr. Mark Costa for his service 
as president of the Corona Chamber of Commerce and for all he has done 
for our community.
