  IN ANTICIPATION OF THE UNIQUE SOUTH DAKOTA-MANITOBA EXCHANGE CONCERT

  Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. President, I would like to honor the concert 
band from Tulare High School in Tulare, South Dakota, and the Garden 
Valley Collegiate school in Winkler, Manitoba, Canada for their 
participation in a special spring concert to be held in Manitoba on 
June 2.
  This is an exciting opportunity for these band members and students 
to reach across the North American border, and together, promote the 
exchange of culture and ideas. The concert promises to be a very 
celebrated event, which should build bridges between these schools for 
a long time to come.
  I would like to recognize the leadership of Sam Glantzow, band 
director at the Tulare High School. He has dedicated so much time and 
effort into seeing this important exchange take place. Also, I would 
like to thank Paul Moen, band director, and Karl Redekop, principal, 
from the Garden Valley Collegiate School. By extending an invitation 
across the border into South Dakota, they have made an important 
contribution to international dialogue and understanding. I admire 
these teachers and administrators for providing their students such a 
creative and unique opportunity.
  I wish the students and teachers the best of luck for a beautiful and 
successful concert.
