WHEREAS, Residents from the Cedar Creek Lake area of
Henderson County are gathering in Austin on February 7, 2017, 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 over 30,000 acres and features more than
300 miles of picturesque shoreline; locals and tourists alike take
advantage of the 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, 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 together 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 85th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize February 7, 2017, 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.
