Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate three young women in my district who have earned an exciting leadership role in the community. Bethlehem Kobluk, Brooklyn Harren, and Madeline Bell have all been named 2017 Sauk Rapids Community Ambassadors. As community ambassadors, Bethlehem, Brooklyn, and Madeline will participate in a 9-week program that will help them develop their leadership skills by participating in activities that engage the community. The people who end up making the most difference in this world are the ones who show up for others. We want to congratulate these young women on their new roles and thank them for their interest in making life better for those around them. Thank you, Bethlehem, Brooklyn, and Madeline, for showing up for Sauk Rapids. I know you all have bright futures ahead, and we look forward to seeing what you will accomplish next. ____________________
