                        Monday, February 1, 2016

  Mr. SMITH of Missouri. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Corben 
Crites of Farmington, Missouri for his outstanding achievement of 
receiving his Eagle Scout Award. This award is not easily attained and 
cannot be achieved without a steadfast determination to succeed.
  In order to receive this award, Corben completed an Eagle project 
that exemplifies patriotism and his commitment to serve others. To help 
better meet the needs of Farmington area students, Corben constructed a 
166-foot walkway and two benches in a designated student pickup area at 
the Farmington Senior High School.
  At a young age Corben has shown values such as honesty, loyalty, and 
civility that inspire others. He has shown commitment to good 
citizenship, physical fitness, and education. By learning important 
survival skills and first aid, he has made himself an asset to our 
community, as well as the nation. Corben is a role model for young and 
old alike and it is my pleasure to recognize his achievements before 
the House of Representatives.
