I rise today to recognize East Fullerton Little League's 70th birthday. Little League's mission is to instill in children the values of sportsmanship, honesty, loyalty, and courage, aiming to produce well-adjusted, stronger, and happier children. The hundreds of volunteers who take the jobs of running a Little League are usually the unsung heroes. That is why I am standing here today to recognize the Little League volunteers who have stepped up to the plate to demonstrate the benefits and values of volunteerism, family, and sportsmanship. Let's follow the example of our Little League parents and volunteers by making a pledge to support youth in our community and to support the people who spend countless hours teaching America's favorite pastime. Let's play ball, Mr. Speaker.
