5 Integrity Innovation Accountability Commitment to Excellence Teamwork Values City Endorsement of the Southlake Stampede Public Art Exhibit Why the Longhorn? –Texas is the only state that maintains a herd of wild longhorns in our state parks. –Texas history cannot be told without the longhorn. The Longhorn carved a path in Texas legend. This remarkable animal with sweeping horns established our cattle industry and gave rise to the American cowboy. –Longhorns originated from wild Spanish stock and escaped cows from early settlers. They thrived in the wild and Texas became their original home. –No other animal embodied our history or blessed the future more. From cattle drives and vaqueros to the cowboys known today, the passion, tradition & myth of the Longhorn is celebrated around the world. –There is an urban legend in Southlake that a prior mayor commissioned a miniature bronze statue of a longhorn with the city logo as a brand to give to visiting dignitaries. We were unable to verify this, but the story has been told and retold many times.

6 Integrity Innovation Accountability Commitment to Excellence Teamwork Values City Endorsement of the Southlake Stampede Public Art Exhibit Great Ideas and Possibilities –Top artist submissions framed and made into works of art that can be auctioned off, or reserved as heritage pieces by the city to commemorate the event. –Longhorns and calves branded with the Southlake 50 th commemorative logo. –Up to two printings of a coffee table book: Will include information from the heritage & education committee to commemorate the 50 th. First printing, in 2006, will include longhorns, calves, artists, sponsors, and heritage information. Second printing, in 2007, we will add the results of the event. –A longhorn to commemorate the event could be chosen or reserved by the city. A special plaque to credit all participants, committees, sponsors, artists, and Council. –A longhorn could be gifted to our sister city. –And many more...
