                      CONGRATULATING JAYDYN CHILD

 Mr. DAINES. Mr. President, I wish to recognize Jaydyn Child 
who was recently awarded the Girl Scouts' Gold Award, the highest 
possible award granted to Girl Scouts. Jaydyn is a dedicated Girl Scout 
and high school junior from Dillon, MT. She earned this prestigious 
honor for her service project entitled, ``Teen Suicide--Your Life is 
Worth Living.'' Through this project she spent 150 hours of her time 
working, fundraising, making bracelets and creating pamphlets to raise 
awareness. Additionally, she organized

events in local schools for an anti-bullying speaker to educate 
students about suicide prevention.
  Montana currently has the highest suicide rate in the Nation, and a 
rate twice the national average for suicide amongst teenagers and young 
adults. Jaydyn is doing a tremendous job informing her peers and the 
community and she is right to be commended. Jaydyn is exemplifying the 
best of Montana through her selflessness and dedication to 
others.
