H.R. No. 622
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Residents of the city of West are coming to Austin on
March 2, 2011, to celebrate West Day at the State Capitol; and
WHEREAS, Established at its present site in 1881 and
officially becoming West nine years later, this small but vibrant
community, which was named after farmer, postmaster, and
businessman Thomas West, retains many of the same charms that drew
people to the area more than 100 years ago; and
WHEREAS, Among those attracted to this rich farmland were
Czech immigrants who farmed the land, opened businesses, shared
their European culture, and planted roots that are now indelibly
woven into the identity of West; and
WHEREAS, The people of West embrace this heritage, making it
known and officially designated as the Czech Heritage Capital of
the State of Texas and informally calling it the "Czech Point of
Central Texas"; West is the place to be on Labor Day weekend for the
annual tradition of Westfest, a celebration of Old World foods,
music, arts and crafts, and many other activities; the city is also
renowned for its tasty kolaches, the absence of which was mightily
felt when the previously scheduled West Day at the State Capitol
this session was canceled due to bad weather; and
WHEREAS, Home to nearly 3,000 people, West is a small town
with a big can-do attitude; whether it's for the food, a trip to the
Katy Depot Museum, or specialty shopping, the residents of West
have much to make them proud; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas
Legislature hereby recognize March 2, 2011, as West Day at the State
Capitol and extend to the visiting delegation sincere best wishes
for an enjoyable and memorable visit to Austin.
