In the House of Representatives, U. S., 
July 30, 2007. 
Whereas about 42 million children participate in organized 
sports each year; 
Whereas children participating in organized sports tend to 
perform better in school, develop excellent interpersonal 
skills, and lead healthier lives; 
Whereas organized youth sports help children increase their 
self-esteem, develop an appreciation of health and fitness, 
and become leaders within the community; 
Whereas organized youth sports provide for regular physical 
activity and help combat increasing rates of childhood 
obesity; 
Whereas the Congressional Caucus on Youth Sports was cre-
ated, with great help and support from the Citizenship 
Through Sports Alliance, Positive Coaching Alliance, and 
National Recreation and Park Association, to restore the 
focus in youth sports on the child’s experience and char-
acter development; 
Whereas far too many children quit participating in youth 
sports at a young age, many telling coaches and parents, 
‘‘It just wasn’t fun anymore’’; 
Whereas the National Recreation and Park Association has 
designated July as Parks and Recreation Month;
for public and governmental involvement in the 
preparation of the management plan; 
(C) the resource protection and interpreta-
tion strategies contained in the management 
plan, if implemented, would adequately protect 
the natural, historical, and cultural resources of 
the Heritage Area; and 
(D) the management plan is supported by 
the appropriate State and local officials whose 
cooperation is needed to ensure the effective im-
plementation of the State and local aspects of 
the management plan. 
(3) ACTION FOLLOWING DISAPPROVAL.—If the 
Secretary disapproves the management plan, the 
Secretary shall advise the management entity in 
writing of the reasons therefore and shall make rec-
ommendations for revisions to the management plan. 
The Secretary shall approve or disapprove a pro-
posed revision within 60 days after the date it is 
submitted. 
(4) APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS.—Substantial 
amendments to the management plan shall be re-
viewed by the Secretary and approved in the same 
manner as provided for the original management 
plan. The management entity shall not use Federal
