                  ARCHIMEDES CLUB FAMILY BOAT WEEKEND

  (Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, I would like to recognize the 
Archimedes Club, especially its chairman, Doron Zilbershtein. This 
wonderful organization in my South Florida district will be holding its 
first annual boat race hosted by the Coconut Grove Sailing Club.
  This event will allow selected families, teamed up with 
underprivileged families, to spend time together building boats that 
they will race to the finish line.
  The Archimedes Club has shown an unwavering dedication to the 
community by developing character traits and social skills through 
boating activities. Its members will be donating their time and boating 
knowledge the weekend of July 23 to give water sports fans the 
opportunity to participate in challenging competitions.
  The Archimedes Club plans to build on this race and to donate the 
boats that are built to other communities around Florida. This act 
shows the unselfish and unwavering commitment of the Archimedes Club to 
help others, and it does not stop at the local level.
  For the sincere concern and the outstanding dedication to 
underprivileged families, I congratulate the Archimedes Club for all it 
has done. The members will inspire many more citizens to follow in 
their steps.
