                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, June 6, 2001

  Mr. HOLT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of Flemington, New 
Jersey-based Boy Scout Troop 194's twenty-fifth anniversary.
  Troop 194 was originally chartered with St. Magdalen's R.C. as its 
sponsor. In 1988, the troop was re-chartered at the Flemington Baptist 
Church. Currently, Troop 194 enrolls approximately 100 scouts, as 
participation in its summer camp program continues to increase.
  Throughout its existence, Troop 194 has boasted a number of 
accomplishments. These include a dramatic increase in the troop's size, 
as well as the honoring of some twenty-two young men with the rank of 
Eagle Scout since 1981. Troop 194 has also undertaken various projects, 
which include cleaning up nearby Morales Park, working at local 
churches, and volunteering with the local Food Pantry. The troop 
continues to thrive as it continues to welcome new scouts and to 
contribute to the health of the surrounding community.
  Once again, I congratulate Boy Scout Troop 194 on its 
accomplishments, and I ask my colleagues to join me in praising the 
scouts' record of achievement.
