                      IN HONOR OF SARA McCLELLAND

                        HON. DENNIS J. KUCINICH

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 4, 1999

  Mr. KUCINICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Sara McClelland, a 
National Young Leaders Conference participant and a student at Berea 
High School in Berea, OH.
  Sara has been selected to attend the National Young Leaders 
Conference in Washington, DC, this week. She is among 350 outstanding 
national scholars from across the country who are participating in a 
unique leadership development program. Since the theme of the 
conference is The Leaders of Tomorrow Meeting the Leaders of Today, 
Sara is taking advantage of the opportunity to interact with key 
leaders and news makers from the three branches of government, the 
media and the diplomatic corps.
  This week, she is also participating in a number of leadership skill-
building activities such as a Model Congress and role-playing the 
President, Members of the Cabinet, and Members of Congress. The 
conference activities get young people on the right track to achieving 
their full leadership potential. I am certain that Sara will not only 
gain knowledge and experience here, but that she will also leave with a 
sense of accomplishment and an increased ability to face the challenges 
of the future.
  My fellow colleagues, please join me in congratulating Sara for all 
her accomplishments.
