             HONORING CLEARFIELD EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICE

  (Mr. SHUSTER asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SHUSTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the outstanding 
achievements of the Clearfield, Pennsylvania, Emergency Medical Service 
Company. On August 10, 2001, the Pennsylvania Emergency Health Services 
Council chose Clearfield EMS from among 1,000 ambulance service 
companies statewide to receive the rural ambulance service-of-the-year 
award.
  Clearfield EMS garnered such an award not only through exemplary 
ambulance service but also through their involvement in the community. 
Free flu shots and participation at county fairs and festivals are just 
a couple of the many ways that Clearfield EMS has taken the lead in 
community education and involvement.
  I congratulate Clearfield EMS on their exceptional accomplishments 
and their determination to improve their already stellar service. 
Clearfield EMS should serve as an example in excellence for other 
ambulance services nationwide.
