                      RECOGNIZING CLARK'S RENTALS

<bullet> Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, today I wish to recognize Clark's 
Rentals for receiving the Supporter of the Year Award from the South 
Dakota Habitat for Humanity. This is a prestigious award that reflects 
their hard work and dedication to eliminating poverty around the world. 
It is also a reflection of the valuable role they have played in giving 
back to their local community.
  Clark's Rentals is partnered with Habitat for Humanity of Yankton 
County. Clark's Rentals began operating in 1991, and after only 5 years 
they supported the new Yankton affiliate of Habitat for Humanity by 
providing equipment without cost. Through their support of Habitat's 
mission, Clark's Rentals has enabled the Yankton affiliate to expand 
their goal of providing affordable housing. Special recognition is due 
to Larry and Joan Clark of Clark's Rentals as well as their supportive 
staff members, Carl Clark, Ray Dorat, and Jimmy Olson.
  It gives me great pleasure to recognize Clark's Rentals and to 
congratulate them on receiving this well-earned award and wish them 
continued success in the years to come.<bullet>
