                         Monday, March 5, 2018

  Ms. CHENEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Logan Grosz and 
Seamus Casey for being honored as Wyoming's top youth volunteers by the 
Prudential Spirit of Community Awards, and Sadie Hogan and Mickayla 
Vannatter for being recognized as Distinguished Finalists.
   The Prudential Spirit of Community Awards is a nationwide program 
that recognizes four middle level and high school students from each 
state for their outstanding volunteerism. Each year, two students are 
selected as the State Honorees, and two as Distinguished Finalists. 
This year's honored students are committed to service and to going 
above and beyond for their communities.
   Logan Grosz was selected as the High School State Honoree for 
Wyoming for his dedication to supporting the Children's Hospital 
Colorado. As a patient and its Champion for the State of Wyoming, he 
organizes and runs fundraisers that have raised over $7,500 for the 
hospital and its other patients.
   Seamus Casey is this year's Middle Level State Honoree for his 
support of the Folds of Honor Foundation. Last summer, he designed and 
completed his own triathlon, raising $10,000 for the Foundation's 
scholarships for family members of fallen or disabled servicemen.
   Sadie Hogan was recognized as a Distinguished Finalist for her 
leadership in a project that compiled and distributed sacks of food and 
toiletries to homeless members of her community.
   Mickayla Vannatter was recognized as a Distinguished Finalist for 
her program that encourages children at her school to choose inclusion 
over bullying.
   Again, Mr. Speaker, I would like to extend my congratulations to 
Logan, Seamus, Sadie, and Mickayla. They have set excellent examples 
for their friends and families, and I appreciate all they do to support 
the great state of Wyoming and our great country.
