Washington County Magazine 2018 Edition
This is that truly special place you have been seeking. In Washington County, you will find a community that is small, but complete. Near enough to the big city, but far enough to be a true get-away. Just the perfect Texas town to call home. This community delivers the first-class amenities you desire, such as quality healthcare, beautiful parks, fine shopping and excellent schools…plus a low crime rate, great restaurants, easy commuting and…ohhhh, the scenery. The Washington County Chamber has been the place where business and civic leaders have come together for a CENTURY now to work on projects that lead this community to stand out from others. The results are clear throughout Brenham, Burton, Chappell Hill, Independence and Washington. There has been economic development in every town, enhanced by a dedication to preserve the history and scenic beauty in every part of Washington County. Since 1917, the Chamber has promoted and celebrated the many volunteers and businesses who invested time and energy to improve the quality of life here for all. Throughout 2017 there were special events and proclamations highlighting the achievements and milestones unique to this Chamber and community. We hope you will spend some time with us in 2018 as we turn ONE HUNDRED AND ONE…in person, online, and at our 820+ outstanding member businesses and organizations.
Welcome to Washington County!
Education is the Key Pictured on the cover is a collage of photos from Washington County SCHOOLS!

Chairman’s
Message
On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Washington County Chamber of Commerce,
Welcome to Washington County! Whether you’re here for a day or for a lifetime, we hope this 2018 edition of the Chamber magazine will give you a small glimpse of all that Washington County has to offer. What kind of community is Washington County? If you ask the 820+ Chamber Member businesses, you’d probably get different answers like,“a great place to raise a family,” or “a prosperous place to own a business.” But one answer all of them will agree on is that Washington County is “home.” Home is where your roots are and ours are just about the deepest you can find in Texas. Proudly known as the “Birthplace of Texas”, Washington County is not only home for our State, but also home for many thriving businesses, the 33,000+ people who live and work here, and the 200,000 + tourists who visit every year for bluebonnets, beautiful scenery, festivals, and more. Why have so many chosen to make this community home? Washington County is blessed with top-notch schools, wonderful medical facilities, churches, civic organizations, great options for dining and entertainment, antiques, art, Blue Bell, Blinn College, churches and many fine businesses. Take all these elements and put them in the most beautiful land in the Great State of Texas and what have you got? Home. From our rich cultural past, our vibrant present, and our promising future, welcome to Washington County. Welcome home.
Randy Wells

Promoting Tourism in Washington County Brenham is not only a wonderful place to reside it’s a great place to visit.
Be sure to stop by the new Washington County Visitor Center inside the restored Simon Theatre in historic Downtown Brenham (115 W. Main St).
That’s where the Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) steps in. Operated by the Washington County Chamber of Commerce under a contract with the City of Brenham, the CVB serves numerous functions. Besides assembling the annual Visitor Guide filled with the unique and interesting attractions and tourism-related businesses that Washington County has to offer, the CVB staff also place advertising to attract visitors, and convention delegates and conference attendees to the area. Along with both print and online advertising programs, the CVB creates publicity and promotions to generate public awareness of events, activities and all that the city and county have to offer. In addition, staff maintains and continuously updates the visitor website, www.VisitBrenhamTexas.com.
Visitor Guide 2018
The staff works closely with group tours and convention groups to promote Brenham and Washington County.We provide “welcome gift bags” to motor coach tours, conference attendees and VIP delegations visiting the county. Promoting destination weddings in Washington County is also a focus for marketing efforts.The Chamber-CVB partners with other agencies, associations and businesses, as needed, to promote this very special destination.The work of this department benefits every resident and every business, whether or not tourism-related. All these efforts combine to bring visitors who spend dollars in our communities, shop in beautiful downtown stores, sample many area restaurants and overnight in area hotels and bed & breakfast lodging properties.
Brenham + Burton + Independence + Chappell Hill + Washington
Chamber-CVB staff members also annually prepare a marketing plan and budget (separate from the Chamber’s operations budget) that the city’s Hotel Occupancy Tax board must approve and recommend to the City for adoption before any hotel occupancy tax dollars are expended.The use of these tax dollars is strictly governed by State Tax Code and, in general, must be devoted to advertising and public relations efforts that promote visitors, tourists and conventions to come to Brenham and Washington County.

Brenham Mayor
Stephen F. Austin chose the area between the Brazos and Colorado Rivers for his original settlers because it was fertile land and it was a beautiful land. Washington County is truly the “birth place of Texas” and has played an important pivotal part in the history of Texas. Many historic sites and museums in Washington County offer a glimpse of that history and help to tell the story of early Texas. It is not just the beauty and the history that make Washington County special. The people make it special. Yes, there are direct descendants of the original settlers but most of us are those who have chosen Washington County for their home and are a down to earth, friendly, charitable people who will make your visit special and you will be glad you had a chance to meet. We are proud of our community and on behalf of the Commissioners Court we are glad you came to visit and hope you come back often. If you are thinking of moving to Washington County you’ll find we welcome with open arms down to earth, friendly, charitable folks. They are a good fit for us and we will be a good fit for you.

This philosophy includes the people who live here. We hope you enjoy your visit to our hometown and that you come see us often. Brenham is so much more to us than a place to live -it is home.
Mayor’s Message
In the rolling hills of western Washington County is our charming little town of 300+/- friendly, hospitable citizens. The town of Burton was established in 1870 by German immigrant families on land sold by John M. Burton, who came to Texas in the 1820’s from Georgia. The Burton Post Office opened on September 3, 1870 and the Burton ISD was formed in 1878.The formation of the Burton Volunteer Fire Department in 1897 added to the security of the tightly knit community. In 1972, the town incorporated; with the City of Burton Municipal Court and Police Department being formed and established on January 25, 1973. Downtown Burton is listed as a "Commercial Historic District" in the National Register. Burton is also one of the towns on the Texas Historical Commission's "Texas Independence Trail" and home to “The Official Cotton Gin Museum of Texas.”The key exhibit of the museum is the cotton gin that was built in 1914 and the 1925 Bessemer Type IV diesel oil engine.The restored 16-ton “Lady B” is the largest internal combustion engine of its vintage still operating in America! Each year the gin gets fired up and bales cotton during the annual Cotton Gin Festival in April. For more information go to www.cottonginmuseum.org. Information about eating, shopping and happenings in and around Burton can be found at the Burton Chamber of Commerce website, www.burtontexas.org, and the Burton Heritage Society website, www.burtonheritagesociety.org. Our most noted events are Texas Ranger Day, Big Star Texas Night, the Cotton Gin Festival, and Spring & Fall Antique Shows.

As a fifth generation Texan and the Texas State Representative who represents Washington County, it is a pleasure to welcome you to an extraordinary place steeped in Texas history. It was in this very county that a group of patriots birthed a nation named the Republic of Texas. Modern day Washington County is a vibrant community with great public schools, wonderful businesses such as the Blue Bell Creamery, and caring people surrounded by beautiful farmlands and rolling hills. We are especially proud of the seasonal bluebonnets, our state flower, that color our landscape. I hope you enjoy your time here in Washington County, or as I like to call it, "God's Country!"

Nationally recognized for its affordable educational excellence, Blinn complements its traditional course offerings with online courses and high school dual credit, and prepares students for quick employment through its workforce certification programs. Out-of-district students who enroll in 30 credit hours at Blinn during the 2017-18 academic year will save $3,717, approximately 42 percent, in tuition and fees compared to the average Texas public university, and $24,856, or 86.9 percent, compared to the average Texas private university.

Washington County Life Brief History Why is Washington County known as the Birthplace of Texas? It was on March 2, 1836, that a delegation of 59 men gathered at Washington-on-the-Brazos to determine what course of action to take to protect themselves from the tyrannical Mexican government that was ruling the land. A few days later, news of the massacre at the Alamo reached the men in Washington. Under Sam Houston’s direction, the delegates carried out their mission to draft a Declaration of Independence and establish a constitution for a new nation. They declared Texas a “FREE, SOVEREIGN, and INDEPENDENT REPUBLIC.” Etched in the history books forever is Washington County, the “Birthplace of Texas.” Brenham is the county seat for this historic and scenic region. The area was opened to settlement in 1821 under the Spanish and was one of the earliest settled areas in Texas. The county was formally organized in 1837 in the heart of Stephen F. Austin’s original colony. Pioneers from all parts of the United States and immigrants from western Europe flocked to Austin’s colony for its liberal land grants. German immigration began in Washington County in the 1840s and increased after the Civil War. The county is very proud of its German heritage demonstrated at the annual Maifest celebration. Brenham was established in 1844 and named for Richard Fox Brenham, a hero of the Texas Republic and the Mier Expedition. It was occupied by Federal troops after the Civil War, and they burned much of the city in 1866 following a confrontation with local citizens. Of the four colleges originally founded in Washington County, Blinn College, established in 1883, is still a thriving part of the community today. Downtown Brenham is the heart and soul of the community and features a wide array of antiques and specialty shops throughout the historic “Main Street” district.
Burton was originally located about two miles northwest of its present site. It was first known as Kerr Settlement, then later called Union Hill. When the railroad bypassed Union Hill, the settlement shifted around 1870 to property on the railroad line previously owned by John and Elizabeth Burton. This site became the terminal for the Houston and Texas Central Railroad. Cotton farming reigned in Burton and, as a result, the city prospered throughout the late 1800s. In spite of its small population of 325, Burton has managed to hold on to its post office, school district and bank. It has its own police force, fire department, and water and sewer systems. The old Burton Cotton Gin has been restored and it attracts thousands of tourists each year. The town of Washington holds a unique place in Texas history, and today you will find Washington-on-the-Brazos State Historic Site and the Star of the Republic Museum on its original site. The museum interprets the saga of the Republic of Texas through state-of-the-art exhibits, and a Children’s Discovery Center allows young people to experience history through hands-on activities. The period also comes to life at the Barrington Living History Farm complex where visitors can experience a working farm of the 1850’s. You can spend some time in the Visitor Center with interactive exhibits, enjoy a picnic lunch on the beautiful park grounds next to the Brazos River, explore interpretive trails and tour the museum. Plus, each year on the weekend nearest to March 2, the Texas Independence Day Celebration is held to recognize this pivotal event in Texas history.

Washington County Life Chappell Hill was founded in 1847 by Mary Hargrove Haller, granddaughter of Robert Wooding Chappell, for whom she named the town. Her husband, Jacob, was the town’s first postmaster. The tiny town prides itself on having established two colleges, Chappell Hill Female College and Soule University, along with five churches. Soule University later became part of what is now Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas. Chappell Hill prospered in the early days and the town became a popular stagecoach stop for travelers between Houston, Austin and Waco. The elegant Stagecoach Inn still sets on the corner of Main and Chestnut Streets, its Greek Revival-style architecture featuring highly detailed cornices with downspouts that bear the Lone Star and the 1851 date they were added. The Civil War and Reconstruction era brought violent changes to Chappell Hill.The yellow fever epidemic of 1867 also took a toll, nearly wiping out the community. Nevertheless, the town survived all of this and entered a new era of growth and prosperity while maintaining its rich heritage.The Chappell Hill Historical Museum illustrates the region’s history with fascinating exhibits and artifacts. Independence was originally called “Coles Settlement.”The town had its beginning in 1824 on land granted by Mexico to Judge John P. Coles, who came to Texas in 1821 as one of Austin’s 300 colonists. In 1836 the community was renamed Independence in honor of Texas’ declaration of freedom from Mexico.
Independence is also home to the original site of Baylor University, founded in 1846. The university was moved to Waco in 1886, but the ruins of Old Baylor still stand, surrounded by a peaceful park and playground area. This park is renowned as one of the best places in the state to see bluebonnets in the spring. At the peak of the season, the landscape mirrors the sky and Old Baylor is covered in a sea of blue flowers.
In 1839, a Baptist church was established and its congregation still meets today. The Independence Baptist Church is now the oldest continuously operating Baptist church in the state. Sam Houston attended church and was baptized there, and legend has it that following his baptism in the creek, Houston said, “I pity the fish downstream.” Houston’s mother-in-law was so thrilled with his transformation that she had a large iron bell created and presented it to the church with gratitude. The Texas Baptist Historical Center-Museum features this bell, along with many other early Texas history exhibits.

GEOCACHING
Do you like scavenger hunts? Do you like technology and gadgets? Do you enjoy being outdoors? If you answered yes to any or all of these questions, geocaching may be a great new hobby to explore! Geocaching is essentially a world-wide treasure hunt. You play by using a handheld GPS device or an app on your smartphone. Since its inception in 2000, geocaching is now done by more than 6 million people. They enjoy searching for hidden objects all over the globe, as well as meeting others to socialize and for competition events. The greatest part about geocaching isn’t necessarily the hunt, the most fun is had while on the journey. Geocaching takes you to places you never knew existed, all around the world! Individuals have been hiding geocaches and posting them for others to find on Geocaching.com for years. Now organizations like Texas Parks & Wildlife, Chambers of Commerce, Convention & Visitors Bureaus, and even National Parks are getting involved in the action.Why? Because geocachers love to travel! Many destinations have created organized “GeoTours” to give geocachers a reason to visit their area and most offer a reward for finding all their caches. This is an added bonus to the geocaching fun.

Shop with pride in YOUR hometown. It benefits every business and every resident.
Many people do not realize the importance of keeping their hard-earned dollars in their own community. They don’t realize that by spending dollars outside of
Washington County for goods and services that can be purchased here, they are supporting other communities’ police and fire departments, parks and recreation
facilities, businesses, workforce, etc.
By shopping local, you get more knowledgeable and friendlier customer service. You get to know your local merchants, and they get to know YOU! Local businesses give better support to community groups.
Non-profits and charity groups
receive an average of 350% more donations from local businesses than they do from non-locally owned businesses.
Spending $100 at a local independent business creates a ripple effect of $68 in
additional local economic activity. Shopping locally saves your gas and your time!
Plus, local businesses preserve and enhance the uniqueness of the community.
This makes it special for you and attractive for others to spend time and money here, generating additional economic opportunities for everyone.
