                        Tuesday, April 13, 2010

  Mr. LATHAM. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Humboldt 
Area Arts Council for being the recipients of the Cooperation Award at 
the 2010 Humboldt County Spirit Awards.
  The Humboldt County Spirit Awards were established to recognize and 
honor outstanding groups and individuals who have worked for the 
benefit of all citizens of Humboldt County, to celebrate the 
accomplishments and activities of our communities, to acknowledge the 
value of volunteerism in the county, and to have a positive impact on 
community spirit.
  Annually included in the Spirit Awards, the Cooperation Award is 
presented to an organization or entity which led an effort or event 
that benefited and filled a need in the community through volunteerism.
  Madam Speaker, I am honored to represent the Humboldt Area Arts 
Council in the United States Congress. I know that my colleagues join 
me in commending them for their sincere dedication to establishing a 
better community and wish them continued success well into the future.
