SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 191
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas takes pleasure in
welcoming the citizens of Crockett County on the occasion of
Crockett County Day; and
WHEREAS, Crockett County was organized in 1891 and bears
the name of beloved Alamo defender David Crockett; the county
seat of Ozona is its only town; and
WHEREAS, The traditional pursuits of ranching, the oil
business, hunting, and tourism have shaped this county's economy
for decades; Crockett County is also among the nation's leading
producers of mohair and wool; and
WHEREAS, This rugged West Texas region is home to Fort
Lancaster, which once served as an outpost to protect settlers
and troop movements between San Antonio and El Paso; today, Fort
Lancaster is a historic site; and
WHEREAS, Crockett County has long been a repository of
Native American artifacts and pioneer memorabilia, and
fascinating mementos of this grand heritage can be found in the
Crockett County Museum; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 83rd
Legislature, hereby commend the citizens of Crockett County and
extend to them best wishes for a memorable celebration of
Crockett County Day in 2013; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for
the citizens of Crockett County as an expression of high regard
from the Texas Senate.
