WHEREAS, Residents from the Cedar Creek Lake area of
Henderson and Kaufman Counties are gathering in Austin on February
3, 2015, to celebrate Cedar Creek Lake Area Day at the State
Capitol; and
WHEREAS, More than 75,000 Texans reside near Cedar Creek
Lake, which encompasses 34,000 acres and features 328 miles of
picturesque shoreline; locals and tourists alike take advantage of
the state's largest residential lake 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, excellent schools, and abundant opportunity for growth,
the region has much to offer citizens of 13 growing towns, including
Kemp, Gun Barrel City, Eustace, Mabank, Seven Points, and Tool; and
WHEREAS, While all of these cities are proud of their
individual identities, they also 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
and character of the surrounding area; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize February 3, 2015, as Cedar Creek Lake
Area Day at the State Capitol and extend to the delegation here
today sincere best wishes for an enjoyable and memorable visit.
