  Mr. LARSON of Connecticut. Madam Speaker, I rise today to urge my 
colleagues to join me recognizing Mr. David Dwyer of Bristol, 
Connecticut. Mr. Dwyer is a lifelong Connecticut resident and has been 
employed by UPS for over 37 years, where he remains a member in good 
standing of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters Local 671.
  He has also been a member of the Forestville Fishing Club, the oldest 
fishing club in America, since 1978. From 1984 through 1987, Mr. Dwyer 
served on the club's Board of Managers, and served as Second Vice 
President from 1987 through 1994. In 1994, Mr. Dwyer was elected 
President of the Forestville Fishing Club. During his tenure, among 
other notable accomplishments, he presided over the expansion of club 
boundaries and successfully completed the Grannis Pond Revitalization 
Project in 2009.
  I wish to congratulate Mr. David Dwyer on his 14 years of dedicated 
and devoted service as President of the Forestville Fishing Club, and 
encourage all of my colleagues to join me in wishing him the very best 
in all of his future endeavors.
