                        Thursday, July 30, 2026

  Mr. BAIRD. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the 100th Anniversary 
of a longstanding Indiana landmark, the Indiana Beach amusement park.
  Founded in 1926, this rollercoaster park was originally named Ideal 
Beach and has so many remarkable amenities and rides throughout its 
history.
  From classics like the Hoosier Hurricane, Tig'rr Coaster, and Rocky's 
Rapids, to new rides like Zero Gravity and the Cyclone, Monticello's 
Indiana Beach has been the place ``Where Families Flock for Fun'' over 
100 years now.
  I am so excited to see what the next 100 years brings to this staple 
of Indiana summer entertainment.
  I congratulate them.
