  Ms. TLAIB. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Minock-
Whitlock Park as the residents of Detroit celebrate its opening.
   The residents of Detroit's Warrendale neighborhood have worked 
tirelessly to open a community park. We owe special thanks to the 
Matney family for their leadership in this project. The goal of 
creating a community gathering space that can be enjoyed by all 
community members has been realized. Minock-Whitlock Park will be an 
asset to the neighborhood and the community at-large, emphasizing the 
importance of coming together as a community.
   Please join me in tribute to the Detroit residents who made this 
park possible in honor of the grand opening of Minock-Whitlock Park.
