                        Wednesday, July 17, 2019

  Mr. OLSON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Ella 
Hummeldorf of Thompkins High School for earning her Girl Scout Gold 
Award.
  The rank of the Gold Award is the highest achievement a Girl Scout 
can earn. To earn this distinguished award, Ella had to spend at least 
80 hours developing and executing a project to benefit the community, 
as well as have a long-term impact on her troop. For her award project, 
Ella designed and created two garden boxes at the Goddard School in 
Katy. She led more than eight volunteers over six months to create the 
boxes. Ella wanted to help teach children about why eating healthy is 
important. She hopes to attend The University of Texas at Austin in the 
future and empower more girls and troops along the way.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Ella Hummeldorf for earning her Girl Scout 
Gold Award. We are confident she will have continued success in her 
future endeavors. We are very proud.
