         CELEBRATING THE 96TH BIRTHDAY OF PLACENTIA, CALIFORNIA

  (Mrs. KIM of California asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. KIM of California. Madam Speaker, I rise today to join our 
amazing city of Placentia and the residents that live in it and the 
entire community in California's 39th Congressional District as we 
celebrate the city's 96th birthday.
  ``Placentia'' is derived from the Latin word meaning ``pleasant place 
to live,'' and it certainly fulfills its name. Placentia is home to 
beautiful neighborhoods, good schools, stately churches, and endless 
outdoor recreation.
  Our fast-growing community of 45,000 residents is tight-knit, 
hardworking, and dedicated to giving back. Some of my fondest memories 
include the city's concerts in the park, the annual Love Placentia 
event, and the always-lively Tamale Festival.
  I am honored to represent Placentia in Congress and will do all I can 
to ensure our community continues to thrive.
  Happy birthday, Placentia.
