                CELEBRATING 75 YEARS OF KOVENER'S KORNER

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Johnson of Louisiana). The Chair 
recognizes the gentlewoman from Indiana (Mrs. Houchin) for 5 minutes.
  Mrs. HOUCHIN. Mr. Speaker, Kovener's Korner Ice Cream has been a 
summertime staple in Seymour, Indiana, for decades. In fact, Kovener's 
Korner opened in 1949 as one of Seymour's very first drive-in 
restaurants, serving up sweet treats and their famous chocolate malt-
flavored ice cream.
  During its 75 years in business, this family-owned brick store on 2nd 
Street has employed hundreds of Hoosiers, with the majority being young 
adults in high school or college.
  As we celebrate their 75th season, I am bringing well-deserved 
appreciation all the way from the House floor. I thank them for not 
only their delicious ice cream, but their commitment to the community 
and a summertime tradition for generations of families in Seymour.
  We are proud to have so many special small businesses in southern 
Indiana, and Kovener's Korner is an exceptional example.
