5 | 6 | | WHEREAS, Public-spirited citizens of Matagorda County are |
---|
6 | 7 | | gathering in Austin to celebrate Matagorda County Day at the State |
---|
7 | 8 | | Capitol on February 19, 2019; and |

8 | 9 | | WHEREAS, Taking its name from the Spanish phrase meaning |

12 | 13 | | settlers began arriving through Matagorda Bay during the winter of |
---|
13 | 14 | | 1821-1822; in 1829, the town of Matagorda was established as a |

---|
18 | 19 | | and livestock raised in the county; when the boll weevil endangered |
---|
19 | 20 | | the cotton crop in the early 20th century, farmers began to grow |
---|
20 | 21 | | rice, and the discovery of oil and sulfur further diversified the |
---|
21 | 22 | | area's economy; and |
---|
22 | 23 | | WHEREAS, Ranching, farming, and petroleum remain important, |
---|
23 | 24 | | and the county also benefits from the presence of the South Texas |

---|
28 | 29 | | the port at Palacios is home to one of the largest fishing fleets on |
---|
29 | 30 | | the Texas Gulf Coast; and |
---|
30 | 31 | | WHEREAS, Visitors and residents alike enjoy the county's fine |
---|
31 | 32 | | beaches and its many opportunities for fishing and water sports; |
---|
32 | 33 | | the county has been named the North American Audubon Society |
---|
33 | 34 | | Christmas Bird Count winner for 24 out of the last 26 years, and |
---|

---|
42 | 43 | | resources and rich history, and its residents may take great pride |
---|
43 | 44 | | in their notable heritage as they look forward to a future filled |
