                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. JUDY BIGGERT

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, February 18, 2011

  Mrs. BIGGERT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the members 
of the Westmont Lions Club as they celebrate the club's 75th year of 
service in the Village of Westmont.
  Chartered on January 8, 1936, the Lions Club is the oldest and one of 
the most dedicated service organizations in Westmont. Over the past 75 
years, the Westmont Lions Club has risen to Helen Keller's challenge to 
become the ``knights of the blind'' by setting up several scholarship 
programs, as well as by hosting such fundraising events as A Magical 
Vision Fundraiser.
  They have worked very hard to become a pillar of service in my 
congressional district. I would like to join my colleagues in 
congratulating the Westmont Lions Club for its 75 years of service to 
the Village of Westmont and wish them the best in their future 
endeavors.
