  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Down River 
Equipment for winning the 2016 Business Recognition Award from the 
Jeffco EDC.
   For more than 30 years, Down River Equipment has been manufacturing 
and distributing a full line of high-quality river equipment including 
rafts, catarafts, inflatable kayaks, stand up paddleboards and canoes. 
Based in Wheat Ridge, Down River Equipment is known for their quality 
frames that are 100 percent made in Colorado along with their dry 
boxes, tables, pumps and a variety of cargo gear. Owned by sports 
enthusiasts and operated by an experienced and knowledgeable staff, the 
company is known for their craftsmanship and passion. In particular, 
they specialize in custom fabrication, distribution and retail of 
equipment for all types of river adventures.
   I extend my deepest congratulations to Down River Equipment for this 
well-deserved recognition from the Jeffco EDC.
