Mr. BERGMAN. Mr. Speaker, it is my honor to recognize the 100th Anniversary of the Indian River Golf Club on Chippewa Beach Road in Indian River, Michigan. Established in 1923, Indian River Golf Club has evolved into one of the premier golfing venues of Northern Michigan. Welcoming their members and the general public alike, the club has been able to offer easy and affordable access to their pristine locale. They have continued to innovate and find new means of connecting with the community, celebrating their storied history, and fostering positive change in Indian River--for this I am grateful.

Following the natural flow of the land on which it resides, Indian River Golf Club is a challenging, yet peaceful golf experience, one which makes the most of Michigan's natural beauty. A round at Indian River Golf Club brings with it changes in elevation, beautiful trees and vegetation, and water obstacles. With their level of attention to detail, it's easy to see why the club has been a staple of Indian River for a century, and I'd like to extend my appreciation to all involved in their success.

Rated by Golf Digest as one of the best places to golf in Northern Michigan, the members, staff, and public should be proud of this course's continued excellence. I look forward to another century of exceptional work and to the club's effort to preserve the game of golf for future generations to come.

Mr. Speaker, it is my honor to recognize the Indian River Golf Club for 100 years of continuous and exemplary operation in Northern Michigan. On behalf of Michigan's First District, I wish the club, its staff, and the local community of Indian River the best in their future endeavors.
