  Mr. CARTER of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the 50th 
anniversary of the Round Rock Woman's Club. Since its inception, the 
RRWC has been heavily involved in the Round Rock community. From 
beautifying downtown Round Rock to hosting their Soup and Bread 
fundraiser which brings in over 800 people each year, these committed 
public servants know how to bring the community together.
  Founded in 1966, the Woman's Club has exemplified the strength of 
community that Round Rock so proudly boasts. Their Soup and Bread 
luncheon and silent auction allows the Woman's Club to donate thousands 
of dollars to various charities in not only Round Rock but also 
throughout all of Williamson County. The Woman's Club also awards two 
$1,000 academic and community service scholarships each year to 
carefully selected students at Round Rock High School's Sub-Junior RRWC 
Club, also known as the Sweethearts.
  The purpose of the Round Rock Woman's Club is to further any 
interests that enrich women's lives as well as remain actively engaged 
in community participation and service, and they do a great job at 
that. I am proud to say that these ladies represent the core values of 
the great city of Round Rock and am especially proud of the remarkable 
work they have done for us. Happy 50th birthday ladies and here's to 50 
more.
