GINNY BROWN-WAITE of florida in the house of representatives Tuesday, December 7, 2004 Ms. GINNY-BROWN WAITE of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and praise Bronson Arroyo: the fine athelete, hometown hero, and member of the major league baseball world champion Boston Red Sox. I am proud that the hometown he represents is Brooksville, FL, in my 5th congressional district. Bronson Anthony Arroyo was born in Key West, FL on February 24, 1977. Bronson is a 1995 graduate of Hernando High School in Brooksville, FL, where he excelled in baseball and basketball. He and his wife Aimee still enjoy the comfort of Central West Florida by making it their off- season home. In 2003, Mr. Arroyo entered the Boston Red Sox organization. In their farm system he pitched a minor league perfect game, won the Red Sox Minor League Player of the Year Award. In 2004, as part of the Red Sox regular pitching rotation, Bronson won a World Series ring. Mr. Arroyo is often recognized for his athletic accomplishments, and I would also like to recognize him as a role model for our community. Mr. Arroyo runs a pitching clinic for the United Way, serves food for the Red Sox Foundation, and speaks with school children as part of his community outreach. Mr. Speaker, it is my privilege to represent Bronson Arroyo, and I am proud to praise him on the floor of this house. ____________________ |
