                        Wednesday, April 9, 2003

  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
recognize Millie Beall of Steamboat Springs, Colorado for her 
extraordinary service to her community. Millie has long been recognized 
as a leader in Steamboat Springs, and today I would like to acknowledge 
her accomplishments before this body of Congress and this nation.
  Millie moved to Steamboat Springs in 1971 for the ski season and 
never left. Since then she has served on the Steamboat Springs School 
Board for eight years, including four as its president, and another 
eight years as a member of the Routt County Education Foundation. Among 
many other activities, Millie has been involved with the El Pomar Youth 
in Community Service program, the Community Committee for the Arts, and 
the Yampa Valley Community Foundation, and the Northwest Colorado 
Philanthropy Days. She currently serves as the executive director of 
Routt County United Way and works to raise funds for a wide variety of 
projects. Spending most of her career in community service, Millie has 
received numerous awards, most recently receiving recognition from the 
Steamboat Ski and Resort Corporation.
  Mr. Speaker, it is a great privilege to recognize Millie Beall for 
her outstanding commitment to her community. Millie holds a key 
leadership role in Steamboat Springs, and her community is immeasurably 
better off because of her efforts. I wish Millie the best in all of her 
future endeavors.
