        IN RECOGNITION OF THE EL DORADO SPRINGS PATRIOT PARKWAY

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. VICKY HARTZLER

                              of missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, April 21, 2021

  Mrs. HARTZLER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and celebrate 
the community project of Patriot Parkway in El Dorado Springs, 
Missouri, which will be the adornment of 48 American flags along U.S. 
Highway 54 within city limits.
  In a time of division, the El Dorado Springs Chamber of Commerce and 
members of the community have come together in an act of patriotism and 
unity. These flags will be displayed every year from Memorial Day to 
Veterans Day to commemorate our veterans and to show some American 
pride.
  This project was a vision years ago by Jack Tough, a dedicated member 
of his community who unfortunately passed before he could see it 
through. However, his dream came true by the efforts of his son, 
Jackson Tough, and his fellow members of the El Dorado Springs Chamber 
of Commerce, who raised funds in the community to bring Patriot Parkway 
to life.
  Please join me in celebrating this act of patriotism and community 
pride.
