  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and honor 
Connie Tysdal for receiving the Charlie O'Brien Award from the Greater 
Golden Chamber of Commerce.
   This award goes to members who are well respected within the 
organization and are motivated by an unselfish desire to contribute to 
the community for the betterment of greater Golden.
   When Connie moved to unincorporated Jefferson County in 1979 she hit 
the ground running. Among her many accomplishments Connie served on the 
Colorado PTA Leadership Commission, was elected President of the 
Leadership Golden Alumni Association, Chair of the Visitors and 
Convention Council and worked as a philanthropic researcher for the 
Colorado School of Mines.
   I extend my deepest congratulations and gratitude to Connie Tysdal 
for this well deserved recognition by the Greater Golden Chamber of 
Commerce. Your commitment has made our community a better place for all 
of us to live.
