  Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise today to 
congratulate Karl Pietrzak on his new role as President and Chief 
Executive Officer of Destination Gettysburg.
  Mr. Pietrzak was raised in Adams County and is returning to the 
region to assume this new position. Before joining Destination 
Gettysburg, he served as Vice President of Visit Pittsburgh. In that 
role, he helped Pittsburgh to generate over one $1 billion in direct 
spending revenue. Mr. Pietrzak has immense experience in the tourism 
and hospitality industries, and he will be a great addition to the 
Adams County community.
  As visitors travel to Gettysburg and the Adams County region, Mr. 
Pietrzak will be an incredible partner to small businesses and the 
tourism community. I congratulate Karl Pietrzak on his new role and 
look forward to working alongside him to serve Adams County.
