  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Claire LeFevers 
for earning the

prestigious Girl Scouts Gold Award, their highest honor.
  Claire is a senior at St. Thomas Episcopal School in Sugar Land, 
Texas. Her extraordinary community service project that earned her the 
Girl Scouts Gold Award consisted of a group effort, led by Claire, to 
fix up the outer grounds of a Care Center, located in Schulenburg, 
Texas. There, the service group built outside furniture and brought 
decorative potted plants. In addition to this project, Claire also 
worked with outside organizations in the community, in efforts to 
provide the Care Center with necessary materials for their residents. 
Through her hard work, Claire's group directly helped 70 people. The 
Gold Award is administered to less than five percent of high school 
aged scouts who exemplify incredible leadership measures through 
practical, yet impactful projects. We are so proud of Claire, and we 
thank her for graciously serving her community.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Claire LeFevers for receiving the Girl Scouts 
Gold Award.
