                CONGRATULATING NICHOLAS CAROTHERS NIMMO

 Mr. HELLER. Madam President, today I wish to congratulate 
Nicholas ``Cole'' Carothers Nimmo, on obtaining one of the Boy Scouts 
of America's highest ranks of Eagle Scout.
  Cole began his journey to the rank of Eagle Scout when he became a 
Boy Scout in 2008. Throughout his time in the Boy Scouts, he has 
tirelessly worked to achieve this next rank and honor. He completed his 
Eagle project this past fall by leading a team of friends, family, and 
leaders in raising money for the materials and building a large storage 
shed for a local girls summer camp. Becoming an Eagle Scout enabled 
Cole to develop an appreciation and love of the outdoors. Biking in the 
Acadia National Forest with Troop 388, canoeing on the Susquehanna 
River, and earning his favorite merit badge in camping were highlights 
of his tenure in the scouts thus far.
  As one of tomorrow's leaders, Cole's dedication to his local 
community enhances my faith in our great Nation's future. His training 
has enabled him to develop skills and knowledge that will help him 
serve those around him his whole life. It is truly an honor for me to 
help in celebrating his advancement to Eagle Scout. Continuing at this 
level of accomplishment, with such a strong commitment to civic duty, 
Cole will become a strong, contributing citizen of this great Nation. 
He knows that achieving the rank of Eagle is just the beginning of a 
life filled with leadership and service opportunities.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating Cole on his loyal 
service and contributions to his troop and community.
