                        Wednesday, June 10, 2026

  Mr. WEBSTER of Florida. Mr. Speaker, it is my privilege to recognize 
and celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Rotary Club of Apopka.
  For the past century, the Rotary Club of Apopka has served as a 
cornerstone of service and leadership in Northwest Orange County. 
Through the dedication of its members, the Club has promoted personal 
growth, fostered professional relationships, supported local and 
international service projects, and invested in future generations 
through scholarships and youth programs. Throughout its history, the 
Club has exemplified Rotary's Four-Way Test and its guiding principle 
``Service Above Self.''
  On June 25, 2026, the centennial celebration will begin with the 
Rotary Club of Apopka Officer Installation Banquet. During the event, 
my friend and longtime public servant, Bryan Nelson, will be specially 
recognized for his eight years of service as Mayor of Apopka, from 2018 
to 2026.
  The Rotary Club of Apopka's 100-year commitment to serving others has 
strengthened the community and enriched countless lives. As the Club 
celebrates this remarkable milestone, it is my pleasure to honor its 
legacy of service, leadership, and civic engagement and to congratulate 
its members on a century of meaningful contributions to Apopka and our 
community.
