                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. DAVID YOUNG

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, December 1, 2017

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Owen Scott. Owen and his fellow teammates created the 
winning app, City Recycle Day, as part of the 2017 Congressional App 
Challenge. Their team is combined of students who attend Waukee High 
School and Prairie View Middle School in Waukee, Iowa.
  The Congressional App Challenge encourages students to learn how to 
code through annual district-wide competitions hosted by Members of 
Congress from their home district. The team's app is entitled ``City 
Recycle Day''. It is designed to alert members of a community as to the 
date of their next trash/recycle pickup day. It also alerts users of 
special pickups and delays.
  Mr. Speaker, I am honored to recognize Owen and his teammates for 
creating the winning app, and I am proud to represent them in the 
United States Congress. I ask that my colleagues in the United States 
House of Representatives join me in congratulating Owen and his 
teammates on this outstanding accomplishment and in wishing them all 
nothing but continued success.
