                       Tuesday, September 8, 2009

  Mr. GUTHRIE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the Junior 
Achievement of Western Kentucky on their 50th anniversary. This 
important organization deserves recognition for achieving this 
milestone.
  The Junior Achievement of Western Kentucky was established in July of 
1959 and has served over 125,000 students in the last half-century. As 
a partnership between education and business, Junior Achievement helps 
students understand the economy and better prepare them for their 
future.
  The Junior Achievement of Western Kentucky should be proud of their 
contribution to the community. I commend the organization, students, 
and volunteers on their 50th anniversary.
