               125TH ANNIVERSARY OF CANOVA, SOUTH DAKOTA

 Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, today I wish to recognize Canova, 
SD. The town of Canova will commemorate the 125th anniversary of its 
founding with celebrations July 4 to 5, 2008.
  Located in Miner County, Canova was founded in 1883 and was named 
after Italian sculptor Antonio Canova. Since its beginning 125 years 
ago, the community of Canova has continued to serve as a strong example 
of South Dakota traditions, especially in its outstanding amateur 
baseball team, the Canova Gang.
  I would like to offer my congratulations to the citizens of Canova on 
this milestone anniversary and wish them continued prosperity in the 
years to come.
