  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Joey Meyer who has received the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors 
for Youth award. Joey Meyer is an 8th grader at North Arvada Middle 
School and received this award because his determination and hard work 
have allowed him to overcome adversities.
  The dedication demonstrated by Joey Meyer is exemplary of the type of 
achievement that can be attained with hard work and perseverance. It is 
essential that students at all levels strive to make the most of their 
education and develop a work ethic that will guide them for the rest of 
their lives.
  I extend my deepest congratulations once again to Joey Meyer for 
winning the Arvada Wheat Ridge Service Ambassadors for Youth award. I 
have no doubt he will exhibit the same dedication he has shown in his 
academic career to his future accomplishments.
