  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
recognize Jacquelyn ``Jackie'' Mae Schick of Pagosa Springs, Colorado 
for her years of dedication as a civil servant to the town of Pagosa 
Springs.
  Jackie has given generous amounts of her time and energy over the 
years as a leader in her community. She has served the Town of Pagosa 
Springs both as Town Clerk and with the Pagosa Springs Sanitation 
District, as well as the Colorado City Clerks Association, the 
International City Clerks Association, and the Chamber of Commerce.
  Through her work as a mentor, Jackie contributes significantly to the 
lives of young people in Pagosa Springs. She has been a member of 
Eastern Star for forty years and even served as Worthy Matron in 1969. 
And in order to further reach out to youth, she has supported Pagosa 
Springs' Youth Recreation Program and sponsored the ``Rockies'' team 
for twelve years.
  The Town of Pagosa Springs has been forever changed by Jackie's 
donation of time and leadership in these various capacities. Jackie 
also supported the 4-H Livestock Auction and worked for the County 
Extension office as a 4-H Agent from 1961-1962. In recognition of her 
service, the Pagosa Springs Area Chamber of Commerce will present her 
with a Lifetime Achievement Award.
  Mr. Speaker, it is a great privilege to recognize Jackie Schick for 
her continuous dedication to the Pagosa Springs community before this 
body of Congress and this great nation. Her tireless efforts are to be 
commended as she sets an example for every community member to follow. 
Whether Jackie is mentoring youth, serving her town, or teaching 
Secondary School at the Methodist Church, she is making a difference 
for each and every citizen of Pagosa Springs.
