                          CHESHIRE LIONS CLUB

 Mr. LIEBERMAN. Mr. President, I rise today to honor the 
Cheshire Lions Club of Cheshire, CT which is celebrating its 50th 
anniversary of service to the community.
  With the support of area residents, the Cheshire Lions Club has 
reached out to assist many members of the community. The Lions Club has 
developed a national reputation for advancing such worthwhile local 
causes as the D.A.R.E. Program for schools, academic scholarships for 
local students, and area food banks, and the Cheshire club has been an 
important part of that legacy. Over the years, members of the Cheshire 
Lions Club have actively involved themselves in countless civic 
activities and made a real difference in Connecticut. Their hard work 
has reached far beyond the Town of Cheshire and the Lions Club stands 
tall as an example of the principles upon which our nation was built.
  As the Cheshire Lions Club has grown, its numerous good works have 
touched many lives and demonstrated the true value of community spirit. 
I ask that my colleagues join me in thanking the club and all its 
members for their service, dedication, and contributions to our 
state.
