                           HON. SCOTT McINNIS

                              of colorado

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, November 10, 1999

   Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take a moment to recognize 
the dedication and accomplishments of Mr. George Weber. I would like to 
honor this individual who has managed to balance his time and energy 
between his job teaching music, his role as a wilderness leader and a 
career as a musician.
  Mr. Weber has been teaching at the Colorado Rocky Mountain School 
since 1996 and before that he taught at the September School in 
Boulder, Colorado. Aside from his involvement and dedication to the 
students in the classroom, Mr. Weber also conducts extended trips into 
the wilderness of three to ten days.
  In addition to his demanding life with the Colorado Rocky Mountain 
School, he is also a veteran of the bluegrass music community. From his 
experience in the past with ``the Medicine Bow Quartet,'' ``The George 
Weber Band,'' and ``Hot Rize'' to his current work with the group 
``Live Five,'' he has been offering his skills, passion and talent to 
his fans and Colorado in general.
  It is my pleasure to congratulate Mr. George Weber on his success and 
to thank him for his dedication as well as his willingness and ability 
to entertain and educate Colorado.
