Abstract
The Texas Sesquicentennial Commission was created in 1979 by the 66th session of the State Legislature with the passage of Senate Bill 236.* Its purpose was to: "coordinate celebrations of the 150th anniversary of Texas' independence as a republic and progress as a state. The celebration will emphasize the historic, cultural, environmental and social aspects of Texas, including appropriate past, present and future highlights." In essence, the primary charge to the Commission was to put together a grass roots celebration involving Texans at every level throughout the state.
