                       TRIBUTE TO THERESA DATERS

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. TOM LATHAM

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 20, 2010

  Mr. LATHAM. Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize and congratulate 
Theresa Daters of Melbourne, Iowa who was recently honored as the 
city's citizen of the year.
  Theresa was honored as Melbourne's 2009 Citizen of the Year at the 
February 2010 Melbourne City Council meeting. Theresa was nominated for 
her hard work and dedication to the Melbourne city swimming pool 
project. She serves on the local Park and Recreational Board and put in 
many hours to make the pool a reality. With Melbourne being a community 
of about 800 citizens, it is an immense challenge to keep a community 
swimming pool in business and up to date. Theresa's efforts and service 
to her community deserves our acknowledgment and appreciation.
  I know my colleagues in the United States Congress join me in 
congratulating Theresa Daters for receiving the Citizen of the Year 
Award. I consider it a great honor to represent Theresa in Congress and 
I wish her the best in her future endeavors.
