                        Tuesday, March 19, 1996

  Mr. PACKARD. Mr. Speaker, I would like to bring to your attention an 
organization that has provided 50 years of outstanding service to the 
city of San Clemente, CA.
  Founded in March, 1946, the Rotary Club of San Clemente and its 
members have provided hundreds of thousands of dollars, equipment, and 
tens of thousands of manhours in service to the city, the Nation, and 
the world.
  Their accomplishments are numerous. In its many years of service, the 
Rotary Club of San Clemente has sent thousands of dollars and equipment 
to De Tuju, Argentina, San Clemente's ``sister city''. In conjunction 
with Rotary International, they have taken on the monumental task of 
eradicating polio in the world by the year 2000. Closer to home, they 
provide financial support to over 19 San Clemente charities and 
organizations, as well as, scholarships to local high school seniors.
  I would like to commend and thank them for work they so selflessly 
perform. Their dedication is an inspiration to all.
