                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, December 19, 2013

  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Maro Dimmer for her outstanding service and commitment to our 
community.
  For over 27 years Maro and her husband Ed Dimmer have successfully 
grown Rheinlander bakery in Olde Town Arvada into the community jewel 
it is today. The bakery operates with the mission to give back to the 
community by donating 10 percent of its profits for charitable 
activities. Maro is instrumental in running the bakery's fundraising 
events, including the annual King Cakes for A Cause, a benefit for the 
Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund. With the celebration of Rheinlander's 
50th year in business, the bakery raised over ten thousand dollars in 
their Bake Out Hunger Campaign, benefiting the Arvada Community Food 
Bank. Maro is a huge advocate of small business development and 
actively mentors bakeries in the Metro Denver area in addition to her 
own employees, teaching about inventory, margins, marketing and 
longevity.
  I.extend my deepest congratulations to Maro Dimmer for her well 
deserved honor by the West Chamber serving Jefferson County. I have no 
doubt she will exhibit the same dedication and character in all her 
future accomplishments.
