                       Thursday, October 19, 2017

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Marian McQuaid, of Guthrie Center, Iowa for being selected 
as Iowan of the Day at the Iowa State Fair. Founded in 1997, the Iowan 
of the Day program allows the Blue Ribbon Foundation to recognize 
Iowa's most outstanding individuals.
  Marian has been an active supporter of the Friends of the Library and 
founded the Guthrie County Arts Council. She spends time volunteering 
with groups such as Homestead Helpers and the Fall Arts Festival. She 
was also instrumental in the completion of the Main Street Iowa 
designation for Guthrie Center.
  Mr. Speaker, the example set by Marian embodies the Iowa spirit and I 
am honored to represent her and Iowans like her, in the United States 
Congress. I ask that all of my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives join me in congratulating Marian for her achievements 
and in wishing her nothing but continued success.
