  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Tasmyn Dowd for receiving the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors 
for Youth award.
   Tasmyn Dowd is an 8th grader at Oberon Middle School and received 
this award because her determination and hard work have allowed her to 
overcome adversities.
   The dedication demonstrated by Tasmyn Dowd is exemplary of the type 
of achievement that can be attained with hard work and perseverance. It 
is essential students at all levels strive to make the most of their 
education and develop a work ethic which will guide them for the rest 
of their lives.
   I extend my deepest congratulations to Tasmyn Dowd for winning the 
Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors for Youth award. I have no doubt 
she will exhibit the same dedication and character in all of her future 
accomplishments.
