WHEREAS, The Young Soil and Water Conservation District | ||
celebrated the 50th anniversary of its founding on August 5, 2018; | ||
and | ||
WHEREAS, Young County was originally part of the Upper West | ||
Fork Soil and Water Conservation District, which also consisted of | ||
parts of Jack, Wise, Montague, Clay, and Archer Counties; in 1968, | ||
residents of Young County petitioned to create an independent | ||
district, and after gaining approval from the State Conservation | ||
Board and the Secretary of State, Young Soil and Water Conservation | ||
District No. 539 was officially created; and | ||
WHEREAS, For the past five decades, the district has worked | ||
to increase understanding of soil and water conservation and has | ||
helped educate the public on the need to conserve natural | ||
resources; today, the organization benefits from the dedicated | ||
efforts of its staff and board of directors, including John Paclik, | ||
Chawn Jobe, Kenneth Lowe, Richard Ligon, Rodney Hawkins, Mary Jane | ||
Byerly, and Sam Creel; and | ||
WHEREAS, The Young Soil and Water Conservation District has | ||
made a lasting and positive difference in area agriculture by | ||
fostering more effective stewardship of the land, and it is truly | ||
deserving of recognition at this special time in its history; now, | ||
therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby congratulate the Young Soil and Water | ||
Conservation District on its 50th anniversary and extend to all | ||
those associated with the organization sincere best wishes for the | ||
future; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for the district as an expression of high regard by the | ||
Texas House of Representatives. |
