Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Sauk Rapids' Citizen of the Year, Jodi Speicher. The Sauk Rapids Chamber of Commerce started this award in 1986 to recognize individuals who have influenced the community for the better. Jodi, a resident of Sauk Rapids over the past 15 years, is known for her many contributions to this wonderful community. Whether she is striving for economic prosperity by working with the Sauk Rapids Chamber of Commerce, fighting to end disease through her work with the Alzheimer's Association and the Walk to End Alzheimer's, helping to put on St. Cloud's Expo for Seniors, or advocating for our children by serving on the Community Education board for the Sauk Rapids-Rice School District, Jodi is always putting her community first. It takes a very special person to dedicate so much of their time to helping and supporting others. I am proud to recognize that kind of accomplishment here today. Mr. Speaker, I thank Jodi for all she does for our community. She is truly deserving of this award. Keep up the great work. Teaching Life Lessons Through Art
