                        RECOGNIZING JAKE HANSEN

                                 ______
                                 

                             HON. KEN BUCK

                              of colorado

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 13, 2017

  Mr. BUCK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Mr. Jake Hansen, 
owner and founder of Bricktree Customs.
  Bricktree Customs, a custom LEGO Kit Company in Longmont, Colorado, 
was founded by Jake in 2015, at the young age of 16. He has created 
over a dozen carnival-themed custom LEGO kits to date, all of which he 
designed. Jake's kits are available at local toy stores in Longmont, as 
well as online in a global marketplace.
  Entrepreneurs and small businesses are the backbone of our economy 
and communities. It is the ingenuity and hard work of Coloradans like 
Jake that make America a global leader. He has shown true creativity 
and innovation in his business and community.
  On behalf of the 4th Congressional District of Colorado, I extend my 
best wishes to Jake as he pursues his future undertakings.
  Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to recognize Mr. Jake Hansen for his 
accomplishments.
