  Mr. ENGEL. Mr. Speaker, for 100 years The Manor Club in Pelham Manor, 
has fostered friendship among women in Pelham and its surrounding 
communities. Originally formed as a men's social club in 1882, The 
Manor Club has since become a women's club and is now the oldest one in 
Westchester County.
  When new members enter the front door, they are not welcomed by 
strangers, but by women who will become their friends.
  The spirit of friendship is at the core of The Manor Club's mission. 
The Manor Club has over 300 members from all walks of life, and prides 
itself as a place where new friendships are formed, and old ones are 
renewed.
  The Manor Club has hosted many famous artists, writers, political 
leaders and leading experts in their respective fields to present their 
work at The Manor Club. Many of the Club's programs are open to the 
public.
  The Manor Club is truly a venue for all. I congratulate them on their 
100 years of friendship and service in the Pelham Manor community.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing The Manor Club of 
Pelham Manor for their legacy of camaraderie, and their many 
contributions to their members and community.
