                   RECOGNIZING TRINITY AT CITY BEACH

 Mr. RISCH. Mr. President, as a member and former chairman of 
the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship, each month 
I recognize and celebrate the American entrepreneurial spirit by 
highlighting the success of a small business in my home State of Idaho. 
Today I am pleased to honor Trinity at City Beach in Sandpoint as the 
Idaho Small Business of the Month for September 2020 and recognize them 
for their efforts to reduce the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
  Established by Justin Dick, Trinity moved to its City Beach location 
in 2009 and has been an integral part of the Sandpoint community for 
more than a decade. Named after the holy trinity of peppers, onions, 
and celery found in traditional Creole cooking,

Trinity attracts tourists and locals alike and has developed a 
reputation for its quality food, service, and views of Lake Pend 
Oreille. In addition to serving quality southern cuisine, the 
restaurant also provides dozens of local jobs and enhances the cultural 
richness of Northern Idaho through their day-to-day service and steady 
participation in community events.
  In recent months, Trinity at City Beach has done their part to reduce 
the spread of COVID-19, offering carryout and dine-in eating to the 
Sandpoint community while safely maintaining CDC social distancing and 
face covering guidelines. Additionally, Dick and his team have raised 
money and collected food to be donated to nonprofit organizations and 
healthcare centers in the Sandpoint area to help ease the burden on 
frontline workers.
  Congratulations to Justin Dick and all of the employees of Trinity at 
City Beach on being selected as the Idaho Small Business of the Month 
for September 2020. You make our great State proud, and I look forward 
to your continued growth and success.
