Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 75th anniversary of St. Mary's Rotary Club, a cornerstone of service in our community since 1950.

For 75 years, the St. Mary's Rotary Club has exemplified the Rotary motto of Service Above Self through countless projects supporting local schools, awarding scholarships, and promoting youth leadership.

Their commitment to bettering our community is unwavering, and to mark this milestone, the club has launched a project to construct new, modern facilities at Shawmut Park.

With the growing popularity of Fall Fest and other local events, the current facilities can no longer meet community needs. This upgrade will improve accessibility and enhance the park experience for all residents. Earlier this year, construction was completed, and new facilities were officially opened to the public.

Volunteer service is the cornerstone of a successful, strong, and healthy community, and the St. Mary's Rotary Club fills this vital need by supporting our neighbors and friends.

Mr. Speaker, I commend the St. Mary's Rotary Club for 75 years of service, and I thank its members for their continued leadership in strengthening our community.
