                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, March 14, 2006

  Ms. HART. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
congratulate the Millvale Volunteer Fire Department on its 100th year 
of service in the community.
  This spring, the Millvale Volunteer Fire Department will celebrate 
its 100th anniversary. The Millvale Volunteer Fire Department was one 
of many victims in September, 2004, as the remnants of Hurricane Ivan 
flooded part of my district. Since then the fire department has worked 
hard to get back on its feet. Currently, the fire department has 
approximately 30 active members, and responds to about 250 calls per 
year.
  The fire department will celebrate its 100 years on Saturday, May 13, 
2006, at 6:30 p.m. at the Mount Troy Ballroom in Reserve Township.
  I ask my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives to 
join me in honoring the Millvale Volunteer Fire Department. It is an 
honor to represent the Fourth Congressional District of Pennsylvania 
and a pleasure to salute such an important organization like the 
Millvale Volunteer Fire Department.
