                         Thursday, May 12, 2016

  Mr. CURBELO of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate 
Harry Friedman from Key Largo, Florida for earning the rank of Eagle 
Scout, the highest honor in Boy Scouts which takes years of dedicated 
effort. Community service and leadership are the most important tenets 
of being a Boy Scout and Harry has proven to possess both.
  Harry's service project involved constructing a community garden 
located at the Keys Jewish Community Center in Tavernier, FL. Harry 
then arranged for the harvested vegetables to be donated to the Burton 
Memorial Church for their Food Bank Program. This program has assisted 
in feeding the homeless by adding locally grown, fresh vegetables to 
their diet on a regular basis.
  Many of my district's constituents have already been positively 
affected by Harry's contributions to our community. We are all grateful 
for his dedication to service and know he will go on to accomplish 
great things.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Sixth Congressional District of Florida, 
congratulations again on becoming an Eagle Scout.
