Mr. WEBSTER of Florida. Mr. Speaker, it is my privilege to recognize and celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Rotary Club of Apopka.

For the past century, the Rotary Club of Apopka has served as a cornerstone of service and leadership in Northwest Orange County. Through the dedication of its members, the Club has promoted personal growth, fostered professional relationships, supported local and international service projects, and invested in future generations through scholarships and youth programs. Throughout its history, the Club has exemplified Rotary's Four-Way Test and its guiding principle ``Service Above Self.''

On June 25, 2026, the centennial celebration will begin with the Rotary Club of Apopka Officer Installation Banquet. During the event, my friend and longtime public servant, Bryan Nelson, will be specially recognized for his eight years of service as Mayor of Apopka, from 2018 to 2026.

The Rotary Club of Apopka's 100-year commitment to serving others has strengthened the community and enriched countless lives. As the Club celebrates this remarkable milestone, it is my pleasure to honor its legacy of service, leadership, and civic engagement and to congratulate its members on a century of meaningful contributions to Apopka and our community.
