  Mr. ZINKE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to express my congratulations to 
an iconic Montanan and the Voice of the Griz, Peter Christian and 
celebrate his 50 years in broadcasting. This Montana legend and 
esteemed member of the community has won 25 first-place `Craney' awards 
from the Montana Broadcasters Association for his news coverage on KGVO 
based out of Missoula, Montana. Beloved by thousands of fans across 
many generations, Peter has also been the Public Address Announcer for 
the Montana Grizzlies at Washington Grizzly Stadium since 1998.
  On behalf of the people of Montana's first Congressional District, it 
is my pleasure to honor and recognize Peter Christian for his 
meaningful contributions to our community through public broadcasting.
  Bravo Zulu, Peter.
