         RECOGNIZING THE MIRACLE LEAGUE OF NORTHAMPTON TOWNSHIP

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from 
Pennsylvania (Mr. Fitzpatrick) for 5 minutes.
  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize an 
organization in my district that strives to empower individuals with 
special needs as well as their families.
  The Miracle League of Northampton Township fosters both social and 
educational growth through sports and recreation. Along with buddy 
programs and coaching opportunities, Miracle League offers those with 
special needs the ability to participate in baseball, basketball, 
bowling, and soccer leagues.
  On May 5, this organization will be holding its first annual charity 
wiffle ball tournament. The Miracle League of Northampton Township 
Wiffle Ball Classic will take place at Miracle League Fields in 
Churchville, and will feature a single elimination bracket along with 
awards for best team name and best uniforms.

volunteers, for the countless hours they put in to improve the lives of 
those in Bucks County.


  Recognizing Warwick Township for its Rank as One of Pennsylvania's 
                             Safest Cities

  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, we have no higher priority than working 
to ensure the safety of the communities we represent. Working with law 
enforcement and local officials is essential to meeting this 
responsibility. I am proud to recognize Warwick Township in Bucks 
County, Pennsylvania, for being ranked as one of our State's safest 
cities.
  In identifying Pennsylvania's safest cities, the statistics were 
compiled from the FBI Uniform Crime Report. This information indicated 
that Warwick Township was the 15th safest city in the State of 
Pennsylvania. I would like to thank Judith Algeo, chairwoman of the 
Warwick Township Board of Supervisors, and Police Chief Mark Goldberg 
for their hard work in keeping our district a phenomenal place to live, 
work, and raise a family. I look forward to continuing our mission 
together.
