                      CELEBRATING KEVRE HENDRICKS

  (Ms. PLASKETT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. PLASKETT. Madam Speaker, I rise today to acknowledge and 
celebrate Kevre Hendricks, a master musician, dedicated educator, 
Virgin Islands National Guardsman, and this year's honoree for the 
Crucian Christmas Festival Village in my home, St. Croix.
  Mr. Hendricks is a passionate advocate for music and the arts in our 
community and tremendously committed to the work of supporting young 
people interested in music. He not only teaches music but also teaches 
creativity, discipline, and dedication to craft.
  He is a teacher, a band director for St. Croix Educational Complex 
High School, and the musical director of a local band that has won the 
Crucian Christmas Festival Road March numerous times.
  Congratulations to Cousin Kevre on this well-deserved recognition. We 
all look forward to this year's Village experience and Maestro's 
Musical Haven.
  Festival on St. Croix is the warmest celebration of all, with sweet 
music, food, and fellowship.
