R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Proud residents of Crockett County are gathering in
Austin on February 28, 2019, to celebrate Crockett County Day at the
State Capitol; and
WHEREAS, Crockett County covers more than 2,800 square miles
of majestic and varied canyons, mesas, and savannas and is home to a
diverse economy of ranching and oil and gas production; formed in
1875, the county was named after the legendary Davy Crockett and is
geographically the eighth largest county in the state; and
WHEREAS, Self-styled as the "Biggest Little Town in the
World," Ozona is the only town in Crockett County and is named for
the high quality of its open air; its attractions include the
Crockett County Museum, where visitors are treated to a wealth of
stories about the county's vibrant past and can view artifacts from
area residents dating as far back as 10,000 B.C.; the town also
hosts a junior rodeo, and the square is home to such works as the Tie
That Binds sculpture, in memory of pioneer families, and the Davy
Crockett Monument; and
WHEREAS, Celebrating their rich and colorful history as they
work together to build a bright future, the citizens of Crockett
County may take justifiable pride in the important role their
unique region continues to play in the story of the Lone Star State;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize February 28, 2019, as Crockett County
Day at the State Capitol and extend to the visiting delegation
sincere best wishes for a meaningful and memorable stay in Austin.
