  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Carrie Bazewicz for her service to our community and receiving the 2012 
Mayor of Golden's Award for Excellence.
  Carrie brought the Environmental Learning for the Future program to 
Mitchell Elementary in Golden, Colorado. This program promotes the 
understanding and appreciation of the natural world to each of the 
young students. Her commitment to the education of the children in 
Golden serves as a model for teachers throughout the state of Colorado 
and our nation.
  Carrie exemplifies education and preservation of Golden's beauty. She 
encourages and empowers her students as an enthusiastic, supportive 
classroom volunteer.
  As a recipient of one of the Mayor of Golden's 2012 Awards for 
Community Excellence, Carrie was chosen based on her outstanding 
initiatives, leadership, problem-solving, and community values, all of 
which directly aided the community of Golden in its great success this 
past year.
  Carrie Bazewicz has been a champion in the community and I am honored 
to congratulate her on receiving the 2012 Mayor of Golden's Award for 
Excellence. I am sure she will exhibit the same dedication and 
commitment to all her future endeavors.
