SENATE RESOLUTION
|
|
|
WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to |
|
|
recognize the Horseshoe Bay Resort, which celebrated its 50th |
|
|
anniversary on July 4, 2021; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The Horseshoe Bay Resort was shaped from the |
|
|
vision of Norman and Wayne Hurd, cousins who established the |
|
|
award-winning development on the site of the former Coke Ranch; |
|
|
the 7,000-acre vacation and recreation spot sits along the |
|
|
southeast side of Lake LBJ, and today, it is known as one of the |
|
|
best resorts in Texas; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, In the 50 years since its establishment, this |
|
|
flourishing resort has brought countless visitors to the heart of |
|
|
the Texas Hill Country; the lakeside location offers |
|
|
opportunities for an array of water sports and waterfront |
|
|
accommodations and dining, and the resort is noted for its three |
|
|
award-winning golf courses; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Described as a gem in the Hill Country, the resort |
|
|
shines anew with its recently renovated and redesigned Yacht |
|
|
Club, its most elevated dining and social clubhouse complex; the |
|
|
resort was also updated with new furnishings, new lawn and deck |
|
|
space, and an extended bar; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The Horseshoe Bay Resort marked its 50th |
|
|
anniversary as part of the 2021 Independence Day parade and |
|
|
celebration; members of the community also worked together to |
|
|
publish The Story of Horseshoe Bay, Texas--1971-2021, which |
|
|
chronicles the history of the City of Horseshoe Bay and of the |
|
|
resort; all who have contributed to the resort's success are |
|
|
indeed deserving of special recognition; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 87th |
|
|
Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby commend the founders, |
|
|
managers, and staff of the Horseshoe Bay Resort and extend to |
|
|
them congratulations on the resort's 50th anniversary; and, be it |
|
|
further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for |
|
|
the resort as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. |
