  Mr. HOLT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Timothy Copeland of 
Ewing Township, who is being honored by the Ewing Kiwanis Club as the 
Police Officer of the Year on Tuesday, May 16, 2000.
  This award is bestowed upon him by his peers in recognition of his 
constant willingness to go above and beyond the call of duty.
  In March of 1993, Officer Copeland began his employment with the 
Ewing Police Department and graduated from the Trenton Police Academy 
Basic Training Course in August of 1993.
  After being sworn into office, Officer Copeland was assigned to the 
Patrol Division where he rose to become a Field Training Officer. 
Officer Copeland is also a mentor for the D.A.R.E. student education 
program. He has excelled with many letters of commendation for his 
outstanding work as an officer.
  Mr. Speaker, Officer Timothy Copeland is a great example for Central 
New Jersey. I ask all my colleagues to join me in recognizing him.
