                    in the house of representatives

                          Friday, May 18, 2012

  Mr. GRIFFIN of Arkansas. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of the 
Rotary Club of Little Rock and their members who have served in our 
nation's Armed Forces.
  The Little Rock Rotary Club was organized in 1913 and chartered as 
the 99th club in 1914.
  As well as being Arkansas's oldest civic organization, with its more 
than 450 members, it is also the largest.
  The main objective of Rotarians is serving their community, and the 
Little Rock Rotary Club carries this out through their numerous 
community projects.

  For example, they support youth and educational opportunities through 
international student exchange programs, and, each year, they award 
eight different scholarships to Arkansas's college students.
  Along with serving our community, many members of the Little Rock 
Rotary Club have bravely served in our nation's Armed Forces.
  They will be recognized next week in Little Rock, and I want to take 
this opportunity to thank them for their bravery and their service to 
our nation and preserving our freedoms.
