 Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, today I recognize Tripp, SD. The 
town of Tripp will commemorate its 125th anniversary this year.

Constitutional Convention. Located in Hutchinson

County, today Tripp is home to beautiful prairies and excellent 
hunting.
  Tripp has been a successful and thriving community for the past 125 
years, and I am confident that it will continue to serve as an example 
of South Dakota values and traditions. I would like to offer my 
congratulations to the citizens of Tripp on this landmark date.
