  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Bev and Keith Catlett of Hamburg, Iowa for being selected 
as the Grand Marshals for the 93rd Sidney Iowa Championship Rodeo. Bev 
and Keith Catlett have been volunteering at the east entrance of the 
Sidney Rodeo for 32 years.
  Bev and Keith are long-standing members of the Sidney community, 
being involved in all aspects of the region. Keith is a member of 
Williams, Jobe, Gibson American Legion Post 128 of Sidney and Post 156 
in Hamburg, Iowa. Keith proudly served our country in the Iowa Army 
National Guard and has worked as a farmer, school bus driver, school 
custodian and a former foreman for the Fremont County Roads Department. 
Bev served on the Hamburg School Board, volunteered for the Mt. Olive 
Cemetery Board, Colonial Theatre Board, worked for Stoner Drug and 
drove a school bus. She is a lifelong member of the Pony Express Riders 
of Iowa.
  Trevor Whipple, President of the Sidney Iowa Championship Rodeo said, 
``The Catletts are most deserving of being Grand Marshals. They have 
been great volunteers for many years. The Rodeo is honored to have them 
serve as Grand Marshals in 2016.''
  Mr. Speaker, I applaud Bev and Keith Catlett for their tireless 
commitment to the Sidney Iowa Championship Rodeo and to the Sidney and 
Hamburg, Iowa communities. Their 32 years of volunteer service to the 
Sidney, Iowa Championship Rodeo is a testament to their hard work and 
determination to succeed. I commend Bev and Keith Catlett for a job 
well done. I know that my colleagues in the U.S. House of 
Representatives join me in honoring them for their commitment to their 
community and wish them nothing but continued success.
