                                 ______


                         HON. ROBERT E. ANDREWS

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, October 4, 1994

  Mr. ANDREWS of New Jersey. Mr. Speaker, I rise to take this 
opportunity to extend my congratulations on an outstanding season to 
the Gloucester Township Girls Athletic Association Softball program.
  As we all know, team sports empower youth in many different ways and 
develop skills that will last a lifetime. Cooperation, teamwork, and 
determination are some of the talents developed when playing softball. 
These skills in turn will equip these young women to face the ever-
changing challenges of the world and enable them to succeed in life.
  The girls that participate in the Gloucester Township Girls Athletic 
Association have proven themselves to be a group of dedicated, talented 
young women who tirelessly took the field with the determination of 
having fun and bringing the game of softball alive in Gloucester 
Township.
  I am also proud to be associated with an organization that has 
dedicated itself to teaching the youth of its community. The parents 
and volunteers should be recognized because without their sacrifice and 
dedication to the children of our community, sports programs like the 
GTGAA would not exist.
  It is a privilege to honor the members of the Gloucester Township 
Girls Athletic Association. May they continue to succeed on and off the 
field.
