  Mr. UPTON. Madam Speaker, I rise today in recognition of Pamela Klyn 
upon her receipt of the Good Scout Award. Pamela Klyn has dedicated her 
life to bettering Southwest Michigan through her work with the 
Whirlpool Corporation. A graduate of Michigan Technological University, 
Pam came to Benton Harbor in 1993 with a sharp mind and has brought the 
corporation to new heights locally as well as internationally.
  In addition to her incredible work ethic, Pam is also an accomplished 
scholar. She completed her master's degree in mechanical engineering 
from the University of Michigan in 1995. She also achieved an Executive 
MBA from Bowling Green State University. At the start of this year, Pam 
was named Senior Vice President of Corporate Relations and 
Sustainability for Whirlpool Corporation.
  Pam was raised by an Eagle Scout. Her father taught her to ``always 
be prepared'' and to ``leave things better than you found them.'' It's 
clear that she has reflected these lessons in everything she does. In 
addition to heading corporate relations and sustainability for 
Whirlpool Corporation, Pam is also an active Board member of the Boys & 
Girls Club of Benton Harbor and a Trustee for the Whirlpool Foundation. 
Pam also serves on the External Advisory Board for the Dean of 
Engineering at her alma mater, Michigan Tech, and as a board member for 
the American Association of Home Appliances and the Board of Directors 
for Patrick Industries.
  Congratulations to Pam. There truly is no one more fitting to receive 
the honor of the Good Scout Award.
