  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Brandon Applehans who has received the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service 
Ambassadors for Youth award. Brandon Applehans is a 10th grader at 
Standley Lake High School and received this award because his 
determination and hard work have allowed him to overcome adversities.
  The dedication demonstrated by Brandon Applehans is exemplary of the 
type of achievement that can be obtained with hard work and 
perseverance. It is essential students at all levels strive to make the 
most of their education and develop a work ethic which will guide them 
for the rest of their lives.
  I extend my deepest congratulations once again to Brandon Applehans 
for winning the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors for Youth award. 
I have no doubt he will exhibit the same dedication and character in 
all his future accomplishments.
