Welcome!

t gives me a great deal of pleasure as mayor to extend a warm greeting to you. Whether you are a new resident of our community or a short time visitor, we hope you will agree that Clarendon is a special place with warm caring people and much to offer. We have a lot to be proud of in Clarendon, and we are excited to share it with you. There are many family activities throughout the year, including the annual Colonel Goodnight Chuckwagon Cookoff in September, the Hedley Cotton Festival in October, the Clarendon Arts Festival also in October, our Courthouse Lighting Ceremony and Small Business Saturday in November, and Christmas shopping events at our local merchants in December. To learn about our community, I encourage you to stop by our Visitor Center at 110 S. Kearney Street at the Mulkey Theatre. There you’ll find the office of the Chamber of Commerce and the Clarendon Economic Development Corporation and people who can help answer any question you have about our town.

The Mulkey itself is a great source of pride and interest. The 1946 theatre is undergoing a revitalization that will turn it into a conference center and live performance hall in addition to a movie house. We invite you to stop by the Mulkey at night to see its beautiful display of neon and LED lighting. And the best news of all, the Mulkey will have its grand opening on Saturday, May 25, 2019. In addition to an excellent public school system, we are very proud of Clarendon College, which was rated the number two community college in the State of Texas for student success in 2015 and 2016 and continues to experience a growing enrollment. The Saints’ Roost Museum is an excellent place to spend some time learning about our history. The Board of 4

Clarendon Mayor Sandy Skelton

Directors is in the early stages of planning for expansion of the museum and those plans should be announced by the Spring of 2019. The museum is open daily Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. Greenbelt Lake, located just north of town, is also something we’re quite proud of. Greenbelt offers fishing, camping and other recreational activities. And we are pleased to have an excellent disc golf course there as well. Here in town, we encourage you to visit Prospect Park just south of downtown on Kearney Street – a beautiful place for family picnics, reunions, birthday parties, or to just let your kids run and play. During the summer of 2019, construction of a new water recreation facility will begin with the grand opening scheduled for the summer of 2020. We also invite you to visit our numerous historic markers throughout the city and especially encourage you to visit our beautiful 1890 County Courthouse. We hope you enjoy your stay and find that Clarendon is a great place to live or visit. On behalf of the City Council and all city employees, welcome to Clarendon!

Carhart. ENTERPRISE ARCHIVE PHOTO

n 1878, a charismatic preacher led a group of Northern Methodists to the frontier of the Texas Panhandle to settle at the junction of Carroll Creek and the Salt Fork of the Red River. Rev. L.H. Carhart set out to establish a Christian colony built on the values of temperance and education, and he named it Clarendon in honor of his wife, Clara. As the third settlement in the Panhandle, Clarendon stood apart from the towns of Mobeetie and Tascosa, which were known for saloons and rowdiness. The colony forbade alcohol, built a church as one of its first landmarks, and planned an academy to bring education to the plains. The neighbors said Clarendon

CLARENDON WELCOME GUIDE • FALL / WINTER 2019

was where the saints roosted. The nickname stuck… Saints’ Roost. Nine years later, the future of the colony came into question when it became apparent that the Ft. Worth & Denver Railroad would miss the town. A vote was taken, and by the fall of 1887 houses, businesses, and people were all making the move six miles south to the present site of “new” Clarendon. The railroad brought people and commerce; but it also brought new lifestyles with saloons and other “vices.” And yet, the town did not lose sight of its original ambitions, becoming the home of the Panhandle’s first Methodist, Catholic, Episcopal, and

African-American congregations and establishing the area’s first college in 1898. Donley County eventually re-established prohibition in 1902, and Saints’ Roost again banished alcohol sales until 2013 when voters reversed the 111-year-old tradition. Today, if you like, you can raise a glass in old Saints’ Roost, but there’s no escaping the town’s original character. With a variety of churches and faith-based services and one of the highest-rated community colleges in the state, Clarendon remains true to its principles and welcomes visitors and newcomers to stay all night… or stay a little longer.

Generation to Generation

We’ve been here since the beginning,

and we’ve seen a lot... the relocation of the town, saloons, murders, a hanging, prohibition and its demise, the birth of a college, floods and droughts, the rise of a dam, war, peace, life, and death. The successes and heartbreaks of our community. Recorded for the people of the time and for posterity.

Our duty then. Our commitment for the future.

Celebrating the 25th year!

Chuckwagon Cookoff Since 1995, the Saints’ Roost Museum has paid tribute to the legendary Panhandle cattleman Col. Charles Goodnight with a cookoff in his honor on the fourth Saturday in September. Over the last two decades, the museum fundraiser has grown to be one of the most popular events Clarendon hosts and is considered as one of the best Chuckwagon cookoffs in the nation, receiving the 2014 Event Award from the American Chuck Wagon Association.

Gatlin Duncan cooks up chicken fried steak for the Honey-Do Spoiler Wagon during the 2017 Col. Charles Goodnight Chuckwagon Cookoff.

When the colonel bolted a food box and folding table to the rear of a surplus army wagon in 1866, he probably never dreamed the impact his “Chuck” wagon would have throughout the West. The invention became commonplace

ENTERPRISE PHOTO

on cattle drives and ranches everywhere, serving not only as a kitchen but also a post office, parlor, hospital, store room, and cowboy social center.

Every year, the Col. Charles Goodnight Chuckwagon Cookoff hosts more than a dozen cooking teams working on authentic wagons who go head-to-head to battle for cash prizes and bragging rights at one of the nation’s premier cookoffs. Clarendon and the Museum extend a special invitation for you to join us Saturday, September 28, 2019, for a celebration of the Old West, which is gone but never forgotten. We know you will enjoy it, and we look forward to seeing you.

25TH ANNUAL Housed in the 1910 Adair Hospital, the Saints’ Roost Museum preserves the heritage of Donley County and the Texas Panhandle. Exhibits include Native American artifacts and a focus on pioneer life with a special emphasis on philanthropist and JA Ranch founder Cornelia Adair, trailblazer Col. Charles Goodnight, and Western artist H.D. Bugbee. The Museum is also the home of transportation exhibits in the restored 1887 Ft. Worth & Denver City Railroad Depot.

Quanah Parker Trail

Visitors to the Saints’ Roost Museum or the nearby Charles Goodnight Historical Center in Goodnight will notice both those locations are marked by 22-foot tall steel arrows painted in the traditional colors of the Comanches.

J&J RENTALS

Those sculptures by Charles A. Smith are just two among dozens of similar arrows across 52 counties in the Panhandle and South Plains installed to honor historical sites, events, and artifacts in museums that link this region to the Native Americans who last roamed this area. It is named after Quanah Parker to recognize his role as the chief of the Comanche people.

EQUIPMENT SALES & SERVICE The markers in Clarendon and Goodnight highlight the historic relationship between Quanah Parker and Col. Charles Goodnight, and the Native American artifacts and Red River Wars exhibits in the Museum as well as memorializing the presence of native people in this area.

Welcome to Hedley!

t’s my pleasure to extend a warm welcome from the City of Hedley, home of the Hedley Owls, population 312. We may be small, but we are proud!

We will be kicking off our fall events here in Hedley starting with the Lions Club Annual Chicken Barbecue dinner on the second Thursday of September followed by our annual Cotton Festival on the second weekend of October and, of course, our Friday night sixman football season. We have an excellent public school system and athletic program. We have three active churches, and our senior citizens center serves breakfast and lunch during the week. Hedley is the home of Moffitt’s Hardware store, which has been in business for more than 102 years. If you have time, it’s worth stopping in to see. We have recently started “Project Clean Up Hedley.” Being a small town, we have had some vacant buildings that have needed some

Hedley Mayor Carrie Butler

attention. So a group of people – including city council members, the volunteer fire department, and several members of the community – have come together to make up the Hedley Recreational Committee. They will be bringing a few more events to the Cotton Festival this year, and then they will be looking at projects on Main Street and the local park for a new but familiar look. So, whether you are living in Hedley, just passing through, or looking for a place to relocate, I think you will find Hedley is a warm and friendly community with a bright future.

Annual Cotton Festival

For more than 60 years, one of Donley County’s greatest traditions has been the annual Cotton Festival held the second weekend of October in Hedley.

Several community groups work together to make the festival happen each year, and students at Hedley High School also play a big part in making the event successful. Annual events associated with the Cotton Festival include the Chili & Stew Supper at the Hedley Lioness Club and the Lions Club’s annual barbecue dinner. As games, vendors, and other activities go on all around downtown, one of the busiest parts of the cel-

ebration is the annual Bingo contests held by Hedley High School’s One Act Play group. The Bingo games start on Friday night and continue all day Saturday with donated prizes both big and small being given away to those who hold the luckiest cards. The Cotton Festival Parade is also a favorite feature and is led by the veterans who are members of Hedley’s Adamson-Lane Chapter of the American Legion. The event draws to a close Saturday evening with raffle drawings being held, including the traditional drawing for a bale of cotton donated by Donley County Gin.

Situated on Greenbelt Lake, we always have access to fishing, boating and relaxing. The Clarendon Country Club, located in Howardwick, is a great place for the family, golfers, and swimmers. Members and non-members Howardwick Mayor Tony Clemishire are always welcome to enjoy a round of golf, a dip in the pool, or a meal at the grill. Come stay a while and enjoy Howardwick. We have a locally owned and operated Airbnb with plenty of room. We are currently going through some changes in Howardwick. A massive clean-up is planned including demolition of abandoned properties and landscaping updates. We also have plenty of properties for sale. I invite you to stop by City Hall if you have any questions or if you are interested in making Howardwick your home.

Lake Greenbelt

LOCATION Situated along State Hwy. 70 about five miles north of Clarendon and 13 miles south of Interstate 40. Entrances on the north and south sides of the dam. Entry permits required. Dogs must be kept on a leash at all times. Filter Plant 806-874-3650 4610 Hwy 70 North Lakeside Marina 806-874-5111 4699 County Road 11 (South Lake Entrance) Open Daily 8-5 (Closed for season after first freeze.)

Opening Celebration, May 1968.

or more than fifty years, Lake Greenbelt has provided drinking water for area communities and served as a center of recreation for tens of thousands of local and regional anglers and water sports enthusiasts. As the single biggest ongoing tourist attraction in Donley County, Greenbelt is a major employer and contributor to the community and has built a reputation as a family friendly destination for fishing, boating, camping, and other outdoor activities. The groundwork that eventually led to Lake Greenbelt was laid in 1950 when compact was signed between Donley, Armstrong, and Collingsworth county representatives. Attending that first meeting were C. B. (Cap) Morris and J. R. Porter, Ray J. Noblitt, W. Carroll Knorpp and W. S. Whaley. Although the member communities changed over time, work moved steadily forward. On April 14, 1954, a bill was introduced before the 53rd Legislature, and Gov. Allen Shivers signed the Act creating the Greenbelt Municipal and Industrial Water Authority. On March 29, 1966, contracts for the dam, filtration plant and pipeline were let. Construction price was $3,685,635.96, broken down into $1,795,514.06 for the dam; $624,941, filtration plant, and $1,230,180.90, pipeline. A month later, groundbreaking ceremonies were held. Two years later, Lake Greenbelt opened with a five-day celebration that began on Wednesday, May 29, 1968.

Clarendon College

elcome to Clarendon College! A small but great college in a small but great community. We are proud of our rich history and traditions as we look to our future with great anticipation.

Our enrollment has been and continues to grow at one of the highest percentages in the state. This is the cumulative effect of the hard work and efforts of a dedicated faculty and staff at the College. This is also the results of many partnerships with service area ISDs and high schools to make dual credit more available to our students. It is a continuing goal of the College to increase offerings to our high

schools and also look at career and technical education programs that will be meaningful not only to the student but to their local community. The College has started its new strategic plan, Clarendon College: Without Equal, and this comprehensive plan will guide the College through its next three to five years.

One of our greatest commitments is to student success: our graduation rate, which is one of the best in the state of Texas, prepares our students for continued success at the senior institution level. One of the greatest indicators of student success is the completion of an

Clarendon College President Dr. Robert K. Riza

Associate’s Degree. The College has worked hard these past years to find and remove barriers to student success and made resources available to increase their graduation rates. WE are Clarendon College: Without Equal.

What’s New: Clarendon College’s fall 2018 enrollment was the highest in the institution’s history with a headcount of 1,639. It’s a dramatic increase compared to where the college was just four years ago. Enrollment in 2014 was 1,211, and CC has posted growth every fall since then. This past fall’s enrollment is more than 35 percent higher than 2014’s headcount. The growth is particularly impressive when the regional unemployment rate is taken into consideration. Enrollment usually dips when unemployment is low. “We’re at what’s considered full employment in the Texas Panhandle,” Dr. Riza says. Enrollment in the spring semester was also an all-time high and set a record for the fourth year in a row. 50

The READ Grant seeks to improve and enhance 2nd, 3rd, and 5th reading education; teaching new ELAR TEKS and effective instructional techniques & strategies. Everyday CCISD staff is working to prepare our students for life after a high school diploma. Check the website to see this in action: https:// bit.ly/2B11w0L

Clarendon Public Schools

he students, staff, and board of Clarendon CISD join our entire community in welcoming you to our city that is rich with tradition and history. Our goal at CCISD is to provide a quality education in a safe, supportive environment where our students are immersed in technology. We accept that not all lessons are taught in classrooms and look for teachable moments in all our endeavors. We want to recognize and reward our student servant leaders and inspire all of our students to do their best in whatever they do and in how they treat one another and our staff.

Clarendon CISD has a strong tradition of success in all sports and the 2018-19 school year contributed to that. The Bronco football team advanced to the 3rd round of the state playoffs for the second year in a row. We had state and regional qualifiers in cross-country and track, and every varsity team advanced to the playoffs! Additionally, CCISD has a well-earned reputation in academic contests as we again had district and regional winners and state qualifiers in UIL contests. We encourage all of our students to participate in extra-curricular activities from sports, band, and FFA to UIL and One Act Play and look forward to continued success in the 2019-2020 school year. We value our relationship with Clarendon College and offer up to 20 courses through them each year, 17 of which are Dual Credit courses. We have been fortunate to use the PEAK scholarship, which was originally designed to assist CCISD graduates attending Clarendon College, to offer dual-credit courses at no charge to our students, a significant saving to their parents. We have had students graduate with up to 42 college hours, enough to put them in Sophomore

level classes when they enroll at various post-secondary institutions throughout the state; our students are proof that they can “stay here, and go far”. We also offer a Dual Credit welding program where students can take up to 12 hours and earn the Occupational Skills Award. Additionally, we have partnered with Clarendon College to bring in a Spanish foreign language teacher for our students all the way from Barcelona, Spain. Clarendon CISD strives to prepare our students for success beyond high school graduation. We believe that working with technology is key in this effort; therefore, we have a 1 to 1 program in grades 3-12 with MacBook Airs and Chromebooks, 2 Mac labs, a number of computers in classrooms and carts, and Promethean smart boards in every classroom. Our board has made a commitment to our students and staff to stay on the leading edge of instructional technology by investing in training, infrastructure, and devices in the hands of our students and teachers to make that technology meaningful and practical. Our school is participating in the Math Innovation Zone grant

Clarendon Superintendent Mike Norrell and the READ grant; both being administered for TEA through ESC 16 and will offer our students and teachers opportunities to grow using a blended learning platform. A school may be identified by its facilities, programs, extracurricular success, and even its accountability ratings. But it is the people that make the difference, from our students, parents, teachers, aides, and secretaries to our cafeteria workers, custodians and maintenance, bus drivers, principals, nurse, counselor, technology and special program specialists, and board. These people make our instruction, programs, and facilities possible, successful, and second to none. We are very proud of our current and past students and our dedicated, passionate staff. Clarendon CISD is one of the oldest schools in the panhandle and our football teams play in the historical, iconic stadium with a rock wall, which was a Civilian Conservation Corps project in the early days of World War II. Come watch our kids play on Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday nights and root for the Broncos. Once a Broncho, always a Bronco! Welcome to Clarendon!
