                COMMENDING BENSALEM HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

  (Mr. FITZPATRICK asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize a group of 
thoughtful and innovative students in my district from Bensalem, 
Pennsylvania.
  Six students at Bensalem High School have been working in their 
industrial design class to build a snow sled for the blind. Working 
with students from Villanova University to make their prototype as 
strong as possible, they came up with a design that included a backrest 
and steering handles, and they also enhanced this device with sensors 
that vibrate the handles when obstacles are detected.
  Mr. Speaker, I am proud of the hard work of students Jonathan 
Champagne-Cox, Brandon Gomez, Jakub Hajduk, Tom Kelly, Eric Rosenberg, 
and Michael Wible. I would also like to commend Bensalem curriculum 
coordinator Dan Lubacz for his guidance and for teaching his students 
that their gifts and talents could be used in compassionate ways.
