 TRIBUTE TO BRUNO STACHOWSKE & NUTFIELD COUNTRY STORE OF LONDONDERRY, 
                             NEW HAMPSHIRE

 Mr. SMITH of New Hampshire. Mr. President, I rise today to pay 
tribute to Bruno Stachowske, a hard-working New Hampshire entrepreneur. 
His thriving small business, Nutfield Country Store, was named the 
``1999 Retail Business of the Year'' by the Londonderry Business 
Council. I commend his hard work and this outstanding achievement.
  Nutfield Country Store is well known in Londonderry and across the 
state for its friendly and courteous service to its patrons. As a small 
business, Nutfield continuously demonstrates exemplary community spirit 
through its involvement in many local and national causes.
  Bruno's commitment to community involvement has led Nutfield Country 
Store to support many volunteer organizations, youth sports teams, and 
the annual Thanksgiving food drives. Bruno is also well known for his 
fund raising efforts on behalf of cystic fibrosis. Every year, he 
participates in cystic fibrosis fund raising efforts by riding his 
bicycle for donations.
  As a former small business owner, I recognize the importance and 
value of community involvement by hard-working entrepreneurs. They help 
shape our economy and our society as a whole. I wish to congratulate 
Bruno Stachowske on the success of Nutfield Country Store and for 
receiving this distinguished award. It is an honor to represent him in 
the United States Senate.
