                        Wednesday, June 21, 2000

  Mr. GARY MILLER of California. Mr. Speaker, it is with great pleasure 
that I rise to celebrate the contributions that Mr. Kevin Sullivan, of 
Chino, California, has made to his community
  Mr. Sullivan was born in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. His 
career has been exciting and impressive taking him from a mercantile 
broker's office and major export company in his native Australia to the 
Australian Consulate-General's office in New York to numerous European 
cities as a member of Jack Kramer's world professional tennis tour.
  In 1961, Mr. Sullivan came to Southern California when he was 
appointed General Manager of Jack Kramer's Los Serranos Country Club. 
Under Mr. Sullivan's leadership, the South Course was initiated and 
built and a new clubhouse was constructed. Although Mr. Sullivan 
stepped down from his managerial duties in 1997, he continues to serve 
as Secretary of the Corporation, Director and Vice President of Special 
Projects, and as a Trustee of the Profit Sharing Plan.
  An active member of the Chino Valley Chamber of Commerce, Mr. 
Sullivan has held the prestigious positions of Director and Second Vice 
President, President-Elect, and President.
  The Chamber's accomplishments under Mr. Sullivan's tenure as 
President have been numerous and impressive: the Chamber moved its 
offices to the historic Grey Building, the website has been redesigned 
and now includes an on-line membership directory, and the Chamber has 
awarded over $6,000 in student scholarships and classroom mini-grants

for teachers. As a result of Mr. Sullivan's forward-thinking and 
leadership, Chamber membership has grown to over 600 members and 
attendance records at Chamber events are being broken.
  In addition to his duties as President of the Chamber, Mr. Sullivan 
is a member of Chino Rotary where he has 37 years of perfect 
attendance. He also supports City of Hope, Boy's Republic, and the 
YMCA. Mr. Sullivan's commitment to community service has earned the 
recognition of his Rotary Club and the City of Councils of Chino and 
Chino Hills.
  Mr. Sullivan has exemplified his theme for the year, ``Friendship + 
Teamwork = Success,'' and he is deserving of the accolades of this 
Congress.
