            IN RECOGNITION OF THE CAPE COD CHILDREN'S MUSEUM

                                 ______

                            of massachusetts

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 26, 2015

  Mr. KEATING. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Cape Cod 
Children's Museum on its twenty-fifth anniversary.
   For the past two and a half decades, the Cape Cod Children's Museum 
has been providing children from Cape Cod and the South Cape's younger 
visitors with entertaining memories that will last a lifetime. Founded 
in 1990 by a group of three women from Falmouth, the Cape Cod 
Children's Museum has since been a staple of the community. Guests of 
the museum immediately notice the high, vaulted ceilings that have a 
distinct Cape Cod charm. Under that same roof, children are greeted by 
wall-to-wall educational and entertaining displays. Be it the pirate 
ship in the main hall, with exhibits of nautical flags and terminology, 
or the planetarium, exposing the youth of Cape Cod to the wonders of 
the stars, the children's museum is an invaluable component of the 
community.
   Since the museum moved into its present location fifteen years ago, 
parents have eagerly brought their children, confident that they will 
enjoy everything the facilities have to offer. The museum has always 
been a must-see for any family.
   Mr. Speaker, I am proud to recognize the Cape Cod Children's Museum 
on its twenty-fifth anniversary. I ask that my colleagues join me in 
congratulating the Museum for its many years of success, and in 
applauding their efforts educating and entertaining Cape Cod's 
children.
