                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, April 29, 2014

  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Summer Brown on 
earning the Girl Scout Silver Award, the highest achievement a Cadette 
can earn. Summer, a student at First Colony Middle School in Sugar 
Land, achieved this honor through her accomplishments in leadership, 
advocacy, and dedication to improving her community.
  Summer completed her Girl Scout Silver Award project by coordinating 
and leading a ``Healthy Eating and Energy'' workshop for elementary 
students. She led a team of volunteers to teach students how to lead a 
healthy lifestyle. This included helping students learn how to read and 
understand nutrition labels on food packages. Summer also conducted a 
fruits and vegetable taste test to help the students discover and 
experience healthy foods. Every parent knows that in itself is an 
accomplishment.
  On behalf of all of the residents of the Twenty-Second Congressional 
District of Texas, I'm pleased to recognize Summer's Girl Scout 
accomplishment and her contributions to help make her community a 
healthier place. We are all proud of Summer Brown.
