Please continue to visit our Main Street Merchants and get to know them, especially during this construction.

A committee was formed consisting of former Mayors Jimmy Payton and Harold Samuels, former Mayor Pro Tem Willie Mae McCormick, Council Member Leon Hogg, City Manager Joe Hennig, Deputy City Manager Gary McKamie, City Secretary Susan Crim, Director of Parks and Community Services Ray McDonald, General Manager of Texas Star Golf Course and Conference Centre Glenda Hartsell -Shelton, Communications/Marketing Manager Lori De La Cruz and Mayor Mary Lib Saleh. The committee discussed memories from the past and the events we would pursue during the year of 2003. And what a busy year it was! The committee worked together in planning with great ideas and diligently performed the many tasks associated with the events. We began with the Euless Christmas Parade of Lights in December 2002, and our entry float announced that we were beginning the celebration of the city's 50th anniversary. honored at a reception later in the year at the city library. The committee decided to have a Euless Christmas ornament made available for our citizens. It was designed by Jeff Towne, the graphic designer in the Parks and Community Services department, and was well received. A book titled From Grange Hall to Texas Star was developed and designed by Lori De La Cruz, Communications/Marketing Manager. In April at the first night of the city's Arbor Daze celebration, the Trinity High School Drama and Music Department presented a musical on the 50 ears of Euless histo The ori incl 1953-2003 Looking At SO YeO Y . Y. g play was written after many interviews with citizens and former city leaders. The musical took hours of practice and showcased the talents of all involved. It was a great performance. In May, the Euless Library Foundation hosted a reception to honor all those who participated in the poster contest and the Trinity High School musical. During the reception, the book on the history of Euless was presented to all who attended. It was made available to all citizens at city offices and the post office. The City Council and staff began to review plans for the renovation of Building A on the municipal campus. The building was originally a recreation center and had seen many changes through the years. The concept was approved and the city staff members in Building A were moved to several other locations while renovation began. In the past, Pre -Council meetings were held in Building A and the Council meeting was held in the old Courts room in Building B. Plans for all meetings of the City Council would be in Building A, which would be called City Hall. During the summer months we gathered the names of veterans residing in the city. Invitations were sent to them De La Cruz. to join with city leaders in celebration of Veterans Day with the groundbreaking of a new baseball field at the Parks at Texas Star. At the last minute, the threatening rain caused us to cancel the outdoor activites including a military fly -over. Instead, we moved into the Dr Pepper StarCenter where we had standing room only with veterans from every branch of service. City leaders announced that the new and largest field at the Parks at Texas Star would be called "Veterans Field." The veterans were honored with a choral tribute by the North Euless Baptist Church Choir and each received a commemorative Euless lapel pin designed especially for veterans. The grand finale of our city's celebrations was the opening of the renovated City Hall in early December. All citizens were invited to visit our new facility, beautifully decorated for the holidays. The artwork of the brick city seal in the entryway plus the water feature just outside the entrance were truly impressive.

From left to right: former Mayor Pro Tem Willie Mae McCormick, former Mayor Jimmy Payton, former Mayor Harold Samuels, former Mayor Ernest Millican and former Mayor Albert Krause. The following weekend, we had an open house at the Heritage Park Christmas event and invited all the previous mayors and city council members. We met in the Ruth Millican Center and had standing room only of citizens and dignitaries. All the former mayors spoke on events during their time in office. In January, we announced a poster contest for all Euless students, and the Hurst -Euless -Bedford Independent School District encouraged the students to participate. The winners were to be recognized at the Annual Arbor Daze auction in early March and all participants were Community Information Photo by Lori De La Cruz. The Trinity High School Drama Department performed Euless... Hometown, USA at the 50th Anniversary Night on April 24, 2003. The Harmony Choir and the Elementary Honors Choir also performed. The facility included many added features such as security for staff members, ample meeting rooms for citizens, staff and business meetings, a beautiful Council Chamber and a Pre -Council room with new maps and electronic presentation screens. In early 2004, City Council and staff moved from a paper agenda to a paperless system provided on CD. The agenda is also projected onto two large screens in the Council Chambers so that the audience can follow the agenda and view presentations comfortably. This City Hall is the centerpiece of the municipal campus and the visionary planning is evident throughout the facility. The 2003 Christmas Parade of Lights was led by all the former mayors and the present mayor and city council members along with 90 other entries. The final celebration of the 50th Anniversary was held at the Heritage Park Christmas celebration. The Fuller House — the first Page 9 brick house in Euless — and the Himes Log House, along with the Ruth Millican Center, are located in the park. The day included activities from the early days of Euless along with local choir performances and, of course, beautiful Christmas decorations. This year of celebrations will long be remembered by all those who participated in the numerous events. A time capsule with memorabilia from Euless' history will be placed in a large rock in front of City Hall. Hopefully, when it is opened 50 years from now, citizens will appreciate all the time, talent and dedication citizens put forth to make Euless the great city it is. We stand among other communities in Northeast Tarrant County as the leader in city administration and leadership. As we continue to Build A Better Tomorrow for our citizens, I want to thank all those who participated in our 50th Anniversary celebration. I especially want the thank the members of the committee who devoted many hours of planning and atttendance at all the events. My hope is that our future leaders will have the vision and the wisdom to continue to make Euless great. Photo by Lori De La Cruz.

The Champion City designation is awarded to small cities in America that are extremely well-managed and excel in community involvement, cooperative endeavors and quality of life aspects such as the availability and high caliber of parks, recreational opportunities and community events. The "Champion City" program is an extension of Pat Summerall's Champions of Industry — a recognition award for excellence in business practices. Over the last eight years, companies across the country have attained "Champion" status because of their integrity, ingenuity and proven leadership in their respective industries. In 2003, the Champion Program was expanded to include cities, as well. The Pat Summerall Productions' Selection Committee noted that several specific accomplishments were recognized as they considered the City of Euless for this designation. In particular, they noted the continuing parntership with DFW International Airport, the excellent partnership with the HEB ISD, the dedication to the comunity in providing parks for sports and recreational activities and the city's involvement with the highly recognized and awarded "Arbor Daze" celebration. Mayor Mary Lib Saleh said, "This is an honor that recognizes our city for the dedication and commitment to family and youth, which have long been part of our mission in the City of Euless, as well as recognition of continued exemplary management." On February 26, Euless was featured on CNN Headline News and in Forbes magazine as a "Champion City" award winner. In addition, Pat Summerall Productions produced two videos for Euless — a two -minute and a seven -minute — that staff will utilize to promote economic development in the city. You can view the two -minute video on the City's web site at www.ci.euless.tx.us/champion_city.htm. Page 10 (TABC). Their goal is to obtain 4,500 signatures. "According to the Texas Wine and Wine Grape Industry, 60% of all wine sales in Texas take place in grocery stores," said Economic Development Director Bill Ridgway. "It has been estimated by local store managers that as many as eight customers per day leave Euless grocery stores to shop in neighboring communities that allow them to purchase wine with their groceries." The group will start obtaining signatures on March 27 and will continue through April 17. They will be stationed at Harvest Food Store, Albertson's and Kroger in Euless every day, 11 a.m. – 8 p.m., during this time frame. For more information or to get involved contact Committee Chair Alex Horton at (817) 540-1309.

In 2003, Johnnie Green, Manager of Parks, was named Employee of the Year. One colleague noted that Johnnie's "vision and leadership" have helped establish the Euless Parks Department as one of the most highly regarded parks departments in the Metroplex. "The entire Parks & Community Services Department relies on Johnnie when it comes to figuring out how to make something work," the nominator continues, "he also gives up lots of weekends to support staff at special events." Another co-worker said that "Johnnie is the `behind -the - scene' person who makes sure that all the city facilities, city parks, athletic fields and medians are well-groomed and looking attractive for the citizens of Euless." "Johnnie is a tremendous asset to Parks and Community Services as well as the entire City of Euless," was a common thread that was woven through all of the nominations for Johnnie Green.

Community Information You can almost hear the wagon wheels on the "Old Iron Bridge" in South Euless park by Gary McKamie, Deputy City Manager As you drive through South Euless Park today, you notice a very attractive "Old Iron Bridge" spanning the creek which borders the park. Most Euless residents don't know what a long, colorful history the bridge has. Many have never seen it. The "Old Iron Bridge" was built in 1889 by the King Iron Bridge Company in Cleveland, Ohio. It was first erected over the Trinity River on the road, now known as F.M. 157, allowing horse-drawn wagons to travel between eastern Tarrant County communities. In the early 1930s the bridge was disassembled and moved to span Little Bear Creek on Euless -Grapevine Road, now known as North Main Street. The road improvements also included "paving" the dirt road with red gravel from the Morrison Farm nearby. The old bridge served Euless for over 40 years. By the mid 1970s the bridge had fallen into disrepair and its 14 foot width no longer provided for adequate traffic capacity. The City Council planned to replace the bridge with a wider, more modern bridge and scheduled construction to begin in late 1974. The old bridge was to be scrapped. Mr. Charles Hunt, whose home is on North Main near the bridge, began a campaign to save it. Hunt formed a "Save the Bridge" committee and convinced the Euless Bicentennial Steering Committee to adopt the bridge as a bicentennial project. Former Euless Mayor Warren Fuller joined the effort and secured funding from Tarrant County to move the old bridge from Little Bear Creek to its present location in South Euless Park in January 1975. The noble efforts of Mr. Hunt, Mr. Fuller and other Euless residents helped preserve a key piece of Euless history. The erection of the old iron bridge and red gravel paving provided a major improvement for North Main Street in the 1930s. Today, seventy years later, Euless residents are beginning to see another major improvement for North Main Street. In 2002 right-of-way was acquired and several structures removed to make way for the new street. A major sign program replaced most of the pole signs with attractive monument signs. The unsightly overhead utility lines which cluttered North Main have been relocated. In 2003, the total reconstruction of Main Street from S. H. 10 north b to Harwood Road began. The new street will be o wider and safer with turn lanes, sidewalks, - decorative lighting, new traffic signals and T attractive landscaping. o In 1974 Hunt and Fuller went the extra mile to save the Old Iron Bridge. Throughout this spring, we all need to go the extra mile to help the North Main Street merchants who are being impacted by the road construction process. Our continued patronage will make a difference for them. The "Old Iron Bridge" was relocatd to South Euless Park in 1975 and rededicated in 1993.
