 RECOGNIZING RECIPIENTS OF THE GIRL SCOUT GOLD AWARD FROM THE STATE OF 
                                MARYLAND

 Ms. MIKULSKI. Mr. President, each year an elite group of young 
women rise above the ranks of their peers and confront the challenge of 
attaining the Girl Scouts of the United States of America's highest 
rank in scouting, the Girl Scout Gold Award.
  It is with great pleasure that I recognize and applaud two young 
women from the State of Maryland who are some of this year's recipients 
of this most prestigious and time honored award.
  These young women are to be commended on their extraordinary 
commitment and dedication to their families, their friends, their 
communities, and to the Girl Scouts of the United States of America.
  The qualities of character, perseverance, and leadership which 
enabled them to reach this goal will also help them to meet the 
challenges of the future. They are our inspiration for today and our 
promise for tomorrow.
  I am honored to ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating these 
recipients. They are the best and the brightest and serve as an example 
of character and moral strength for us all to imitate and follow.
  Finally, I wish to salute their families and Scout leaders who have 
provided these young women with continued support and encouragement.
  It is with great pride that I submit these two names as recipients of 
the Girl Scout Gold Award.

                    Girl Scout Gold Award Recipients

       Miranda Jean Buck of Frederick, MD
       Carla R. Williams of Union Bridge, MD.
