  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Elijah Burk for receiving the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors 
for Youth award.
   Elijah Burk is a student at Oberon Middle School and received this 
award because his determination and hard work have allowed him to 
overcome adversities.
   The dedication demonstrated by Elijah Burk is exemplary of the type 
of achievement that can be attained with hard work and perseverance. It 
is essential students at all levels strive to make the most of their 
education and develop a work ethic which will guide them for the rest 
of their lives.
   I extend my deepest congratulations to Elijah Burk for winning the 
Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors for Youth award. I have no doubt 
he will exhibit the same dedication and character in all of his future 
accomplishments.
