  Mr. OTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to bring to the attention of the 
House the distinguished accomplishments of Courtney Floyd of Boise, 
Idaho. Courtney is the recipient of the Salvation Army's Emily Reno 
award for service to community.
  Courtney, the daughter of Greg and Suzanne Floyd, is a senior at 
Centennial High School in Boise, Idaho, where she serves as a student 
council officer, cheerleader, and member of the Key Club. In addition 
to her extensive involvement in school activities, Courtney has served 
her community in various volunteer capacities--through her involvement 
with Special Olympics, soup kitchens, humanitarian aid projects, and 
retirement centers.
  A key element in the Salvation Army's Christmas food drives; Courtney 
has initiated the collection of more than 590,000 pounds of food for 
the needy during the past 3 years. Mr. Speaker, I wish to convey a 
special thanks to Courtney Floyd for her hard work and sense of 
community. Courtney's unselfish actions epitomize the ministry and 
mission of the Salvation Army.
