KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE IN MEDORA, NORTH DAKOTA
(Mr. CRAMER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Mr. CRAMER. Madam Speaker, big things are happening in the small cow
town of Medora, North Dakota.
The famed Medora Musical, also known as the Greatest Show in the
West, is celebrating 50 years of entertaining and inspiring visitors
while paying tribute to American values like family, patriotism, and
faith in God, and, of course, the legacies of Theodore Roosevelt and
Harold Schafer.
Medora serves as the gateway to Theodore Roosevelt National Park,
named for the city slicker turned cowboy who ranched the Badlands of
Dakota Territory before going back East, refreshed and restored, to
accomplish big things.
Madam Speaker, tonight, I am thankful that God gave us the Badlands
and Theodore Roosevelt and that he gave a dream to Harold Schafer and
that, today, the Theodore Roosevelt Medora Foundation keeps that dream
alive in beautiful Medora, North Dakota.
