  Mr. SCHNEIDER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize five 
outstanding women who

have enriched our communities across five different sectors.
   The Deerfield/Bannockburn/Riverwoods and Wilmette Chambers of 
Commerce joined together to host the seventh annual North Shore Women's 
Conference in the suburban Chicago district I represent. This year's 
honorees have each contributed in their unique ways to the strength and 
success of our communities, and each is well qualified and deserving of 
this recognition.
   Mr. Speaker, I want to recognize this year's five honorees: in the 
Corporate Sector, Joy Foster of Deerfields Bakery; in the Small 
Business category, Megan Quinlisk Van Treeck of The Irish Connoisseur; 
in the Entrepreneurial category, Adriane Johnson of Populus XP; in the 
Not For Profit category, Deb Guy of the Women's Exchange; in the 
Government category, Wendy Durkin, Battalion Chief of the Buffalo Grove 
Fire Department.
   Each of these women exemplifies part of the spirit that makes the 
Tenth District an ideal place to start and raise a family as well as 
build and grow a business.
   I am grateful for the dedicated work each of them does in our 
communities, and I am confident that this honor will mark the start of 
an even greater chapter of service to the community.
