SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 117
WHEREAS, Residents of the Cedar Creek Lake area of
Henderson County are gathering in Austin on February 3, 2009, to
celebrate Cedar Creek Lake Day at the Capitol; and
WHEREAS, More than 60,000 Texans reside near Cedar Creek
Lake, which encompasses 38,000 acres and features 328 miles of
picturesque shoreline; local residents and tourists take
advantage of the state's largest residential lake and its
shoreline by engaging in a wide range of outdoor activities,
including boating, fishing, swimming, camping, and golfing; and
WHEREAS, With a healthy blend of residential and business
interests, the region has much to offer citizens of growing
communities, such as Kemp, Gun Barrel City, Eustace, Mabank,
Seven Points, and Tool; and
WHEREAS, While area towns are proud of their individual
identities, they share the values and ideals of a caring,
close-knit community; and
WHEREAS, Cedar Creek Lake is one of our state's true
treasures, and residents justifiably take great pride in the
beauty of the lake and the character of the surrounding area;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 81st
Legislature, hereby recognize February 3, 2009, as Cedar Creek
Lake Day at the State Capitol and extend to the delegation here
today sincere best wishes for an enjoyable and memorable visit;
and, be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared in
honor of this occasion.
Nichols, Deuell
