  Mr. BARLETTA. Mr. Speaker, I would like to recognize the Valley 
Chiefs Mini-Football League as the organization celebrates its 50th 
Anniversary.
  The Valley Chiefs Mini-Football League is an integral part of the 
Sugarloaf Valley community. Throughout the years, thousands of lives 
have been changed through participation in this program. With the goal 
of teaching children the value of sportsmanship, hard work, and 
dedication, this organization has impacted the lives of participants, 
parents, and volunteers alike.
  As a father and former athlete, I know how influential youth sports 
are in childhood development and in shaping the future minds of our 
country. Today, as we recognize the founders, alumni, and current 
participants of the Valley Chiefs Mini-Football League, I am honored to 
represent such an organization in Congress. I know this program will 
continue to grow and be successful for many years to come.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing the Valley Chiefs Mini-
Football League and congratulate this organization on an incredible 50 
years of service to the community.

                          ____________________
