I rise to recognize an inspiring young leader from Gates County, North Carolina, Jonah Dickerson. Jonah earned the Congressional Gold Medal award after dedicating over 400 hours of volunteer service, hosting soccer clinics for children and supporting students of Buckland Elementary School. He is a proud East Carolina University Pirate and honors college student. Jonah studies geographic information sciences and applies his skills at Sound Rivers, protecting our precious waterways in the East. Alongside his brother Cole, Jonah has coauthored two research papers, one on low-cost buoy systems for geographic education and another advancing UAV tracking accuracy. Mr. Speaker, Jonah reminds us that our service can uplift and inspire an entire community. He truly represents the best of eastern North Carolina. We are so proud to honor him and look forward to what the future holds.
