  Mrs. WALORSKI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Titan Robotics 
from Trinity School at Greenlawn in South Bend. Next week, they will 
travel to California to compete in the Legoland North American Open 
Invitational Championship.
  I recently had the opportunity to speak with these students about 
their project, in which they were challenged to find new ways to help 
the environment. They discovered that recycling labels on plastic 
wrappers were often hidden or unclear, making consumers less likely to 
recycle. After hours of research, they proposed a label that would wrap 
around plastic wrappers, making it easier to see if the product is 
recyclable. They proposed another label to inform consumers if the 
product is not recyclable.
  Mr. Speaker, I commend these kids for their hard work and wish them 
the best of luck at their competition. I also want to thank the 
parents, coaches, teachers, principals, and everyone in the community 
who has supported them. I submit the names of the students and coaches.
