              KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE IN MEDORA, NORTH DAKOTA

  (Mr. CRAMER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CRAMER. Madam Speaker, big things are happening in the small cow 
town of Medora, North Dakota.

[[Page 9022]]

  The famed Medora Musical, also known as the Greatest Show in the 
West, is celebrating 50 years of entertaining and inspiring visitors 
while paying tribute to American values like family, patriotism, and 
faith in God, and, of course, the legacies of Theodore Roosevelt and 
Harold Schafer.
  Medora serves as the gateway to Theodore Roosevelt National Park, 
named for the city slicker turned cowboy who ranched the Badlands of 
Dakota Territory before going back East, refreshed and restored, to 
accomplish big things.
  Madam Speaker, tonight, I am thankful that God gave us the Badlands 
and Theodore Roosevelt and that he gave a dream to Harold Schafer and 
that, today, the Theodore Roosevelt Medora Foundation keeps that dream 
alive in beautiful Medora, North Dakota.
