                        Friday, January 5, 2024

  Ms. SANCHEZ. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 65th 
anniversary of the City of Walnut.
  Walnut is beloved for its historic charm and traditions such as the 
Walnut Family Festival and Winter Jam. On January 20, 2024, the City of 
Walnut celebrates 65 years since its incorporation.
  A long-time ranching community, the Walnut area was primarily used 
for cattle and sheep grazing as well as growing wheat, grapes, and 
fruit trees.
  Walnut has since grown into a diverse, successful city that I am 
proud to represent as part of California's 38th congressional district.
  From the iconic windmill in Suzanne Park to the wildlife sanctuary at 
Mt. SAC to the beautiful groves of walnut trees to its wonderful Senior 
Center, the City of Walnut has much to offer residents and visitors 
alike.
  Happy Birthday, City of Walnut.
