                       RECOGNIZING LAKOTA TIMOTHY

  (Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
an outstanding student from Coudersport, Pennsylvania, who received an 
award from the Potter County Conservation District for being an 
outstanding FFA student.
  Miss Lakota Timothy is this year's recipient of the Henry Staiger 
Agriculture Education and FFA Award. Henry was an agriculture teacher 
for many years in Potter County and was instrumental in developing the 
conservation district.
  Each year, this award goes to the most involved and outstanding Spud 
Growers FFA student from Coudersport High School.
  Lakota is the daughter of Scott and Wendy Timothy of Sweden Valley. 
Throughout her FFA career, she has been involved in numerous leadership 
and development events, including: forest evaluation, land evaluation, 
environmental and natural resources, dairy evaluation, livestock 
evaluation, and public speaking.
  She also has presented at Kindergarten Ag Day and other community 
events where she teaches elementary students about various agricultural 
topics.
  Mr. Speaker, Lakota has been an excellent role model to both her 
peers and younger students who are interested in agriculture.
  I congratulate her on this outstanding achievement and wish her the 
best of luck in the future.
