                   RECOGNIZING ANDREA DEVORRIS COHEN

  (Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
Andrea Devorris Cohen, a dedicated community leader whose work has 
benefited the people of Blair County.
  As the president of Lakemont Park, Andrea has led the recent 
transformation of this amusement park into a renewed recreational 
epicenter for our community. From new playgrounds and walking trails to 
batting cages and basketball courts, Lakemont Park has been restored to 
a beautiful facility where families and friends can gather together.
  A homegrown Altoona leader and the daughter of Nancy and Don 
Devorris, Andrea has spent her career working for our community and 
improving the quality of life in Blair County. This week, she will be 
honored by the Central Blair Recreation and Park Commission for her 
many contributions and achievements.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the 13th Congressional District of 
Pennsylvania, we thank Andrea Devorris Cohen for her leadership in the 
revitalization of this historic recreational center, as well as her 
continued service to our community.
