IN RECOGNITION OF REBECCA WRIGHT
______
HON. JOHN JOYCE
of pennsylvania
in the house of representatives
Thursday, April 22, 2021
Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise to congratulate Rebecca Wright, a student at Windber Area High School, on being crowned the 74th Maple Queen at the Pennsylvania Maple Festival.
A pianist, Rebecca earned accolades at the competition for her performance of ``Midnight Rhapsody,'' including the Anna Ruth Thomas Memorial Talent Award. She also won the Promenade Award and the Interview Award.
As the Maple Queen, Rebecca will represent Somerset County's robust maple industry. Since 1947, the Pennsylvania Maple Festival has been hosted by maple producers from across the region to showcase maple production.
On behalf of Pennsylvania's 13th Congressional District, I congratulate Rebecca and her family on this incredible achievement. As Rebecca commences her service as Maple Queen, I wish her every continued success.
