             125TH ANNIVERSARY OF WOONSOCKET, SOUTH DAKOTA

 Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, today I wish to recognize 
Woonsocket, SD. The town of Woonsocket will commemorate its 125th 
anniversary of its founding with celebrations July 3 to 6, 2008.
  Located in Sanborn County, Woonsocket was founded in 1883 and was 
named after Woonsocket, RI. Since its beginning 125 years ago, the 
community of Woonsocket has continued to serve as a strong example of 
South Dakota values and traditions.
  I would like to offer my congratulations to the citizens of 
Woonsocket on this milestone anniversary and wish them continued 
prosperity in the years to come.
