R E S O L U T I O N
         WHEREAS, On March 27, 2007, proud residents of Waco are
  visiting Austin to celebrate Waco Day at the State Capitol; and
         WHEREAS, Located on the banks of the Bosque and Brazos Rivers
  in the heart of Texas and the McLennan County seat, Waco is blessed
  with an abundance of resources, including natural springs and
  fertile soil; and
         WHEREAS, The city is a center for academics; home to Texas
  State Technical College, McLennan Community College, and Baylor
  University, the oldest university in the state and the largest
  Baptist university in the world, Waco makes an invaluable
  contribution to the Lone Star State by so ably supporting our next
  generation of leaders; and
         WHEREAS, Among the city's myriad distinctions are Lake Waco,
  the largest municipal lake in the state, the Texas Rangers Hall of
  Fame and Museum, the Texas Sports Hall of Fame, the historic
  Hippodrome Theater, and the Dr Pepper Museum & Free Enterprise
  Institute; and
         WHEREAS, One of Waco's earliest landmarks is still among its
  most famous: the Suspension Bridge, designed by the company that
  later built the Brooklyn Bridge, has been preserved and is now
  flanked by beautiful parks; and
         WHEREAS, Citizens of Waco are making important economic,
  educational, and cultural contributions to Texas while maintaining
  the attractive qualities that make our best small cities such
  desirable places to live, work, and raise a family, and it is indeed
  fitting to take this opportunity to honor this fine city; now,
  therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 80th Texas
  Legislature hereby recognize March 27, 2007, as Waco Day at the
  State Capitol and extend to the city's visiting residents sincere
  best wishes for a memorable and enjoyable stay in Austin.
