                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, April 22, 2010

  Ms. SCHWARTZ. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor and congratulate 
the Montgomery County Senior Games & Expo on the occasion of this 
organization's milestone 25th Anniversary. The Montgomery County Senior 
Games & Expo will be held at Montgomery County Community College from 
May 10 through 14, 2010.
  The Montgomery County Senior Games & Expo originated in 1985 through 
the efforts of Montgomery County's state legislative delegation. 
Through the continued support and tireless work of talented volunteers, 
the Montgomery County Senior Games & Expo has been successful in 
ensuring that this annual event combining healthy exercise and 
community spirit has continued. The Games & Expo is comprised of 
weeklong competitive events for Montgomery County senior adults and 
culminates with an Expo featuring health screenings and various 
exhibits with services and products to benefit the lifestyles of senior 
citizens. This event gives seniors the opportunity to not only gain 
information about their health resources, but to come together in the 
spirit of community to engage in sports and recreation. I am proud to 
represent the volunteers who work so hard to organize this outstanding 
event, as well as the participants who take advantage of such a 
wonderful experience.
  Madam Speaker, I ask that my colleagues join me in celebrating the 
Montgomery County Senior Games & Expo's 25th anniversary and in wishing 
the volunteers, participants, and community many more years of health 
and fellowship.
