                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. CARLOS A. GIMENEZ

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, April 11, 2022

  Mr. GIMENEZ. Madam Speaker, I rise today to commemorate the 
Whispering Manes Therapeutic Riding Center's opening of a new arena in 
Florida's 26th Congressional District. It is my honor to recognize 
individuals and organizations in my district that dedicate their time 
and resources to helping improve the lives of children and their 
families that struggle with physical, cognitive, and emotional 
disabilities.
  Whispering Manes is opening a new arena and dedicating it to Marilyn 
Fizer March, an advocate and leader for children who suffer from a wide 
variety of disabilities. The March Arena is in the heart of my district 
and serves a neighborhood that would not otherwise have access to 
equine activities.
  Through safe and supervised programs, participants with a wide range 
of disabilities are given the opportunity to participate in activities 
that promote physical, cognitive, or emotional well-being. The program 
aims to promote improvements in core and overall muscle strength, 
balance, and motor skills.
  I am always proud to recognize individuals and organizations that 
dedicate their time to improving the lives of children in my district 
and in the community. I look forward to seeing this new arena provide 
invaluable services to this community and the constituents of Florida's 
26th Congressional District.
