Carr: West Texas Fiddlers and the Buddy Holly Center West Texas Fiddlers and the B “Hardy Pioneers” and Amarillo’s Panhandle Fiddle Contests By Joe Carr In the period from 1928 to 1931, at least six fiddle contests were held in Amarillo, Texas, most under the auspices of the Tri-State Fair Association. Contemporary newspaper re- ports offer interesting insights into the workings of the contests and the activities of the contestants, giving us a fascinating glimpse into the lives and fortunes of numerous early Panhandle fiddlers, including noted musicians Eck Robertson, J. T. Wills - father of Western Swing legend Bob Wills, Jess Morris, and others.1 Census statistics indicate just over 15,000 Amarillo residents in 1920, and the town had grown to a city of 43,000 by 1930.2 Amarillo’s older citizens who noticed the changing landscape may have had fond memories of the old days, and the Old Fiddler contests gave them an opportunity to enjoy what was perceived as a fast dying art.

Lubbock Comprehensive Plan Introduction
Population and Economics 2004 Update Report Lubbock Comprehensive Plan Introduction The Population and Economics Report is an element of the Lubbock Comprehensive Plan. The purpose of this report is to evaluate the structure of the economy and demography of Lubbock and produce projections for population, land use and economic development. The Population and Economics Report should be evaluated on a timely basis to reflect changes in the economy and demography of Lubbock. The Population and Economics report is used by businesses, governmental agencies, churches, students, and civic organizations to determine needs and develop strategies to meet those needs. To better serve users of this report a greater emphasis is on the graphic presentation of statistical data. The Population and Economics Report is divided into sections on the economy, population and goals. Evaluation of the economic structure is fundamental to the population analysis because economic and human resources are the foundation of any community. Goals reflect the desires of the citizens to increase economic opportunity and improve the quality of life for their community and to focus the available resources to achieve these goals. Most chapters in the report are subdivided into Historic, Existing and Outlook sections to illustrate the evolution of the specific topics. To accommodate the increased interest in water usage and planning, projections are made to the year 2050 for the City of Lubbock and the Retail Trade area. It should be noted that while the Planning Department of the City of Lubbock is responsible for this report and great care has been used in the assembly and review of this document, accuracy is limited by the reliability of the current Land Use Data File and the accuracy of data obtained from other sources.

Notes from the ...Field the Landmark Is on Fire
The Newsletter of Lubbock Lake National Historic Landmark Winter 2013 Notes from the ...Field The Landmark is on Fire By Matthew McEwen, Heritage Maintenance Technician Heritage Maintenance Supervisor Scott Trevey directs fire fighters from Lubbock Fire Department At the Landmark, prescribed burning is a part of restoration efforts in order to manipulate the vegetation to what it looked like before European settlement. Fire plays an integral part for achieving many of the management objectives. These objectives include suppressing mesquite, increasing biodiversity, and improving habitat for the Texas horned lizard. Prescribed burning is the controlled application of fire to the landscape under specified environmental conditions. Weather in the for of wind speed, direction, temperature, humidity, and frontal systems are important factors when planning and implementing a prescribed burn. The trails, perimeter roads, and archaeology-friendly mineral lines are used where possible to confine where the fire should burn. The Landmark’s recent reintroduction of fire includes prescribed burning of several hundred brush piles since 2006, a prescribed burn around the Llano Estacado Wildflower Trail in 2009, and another in the northern 80 acres in 2010. These burns have been applied during the dormant season. The dormant season typically provides for higher humidity and lower temperatures, allowing the fire behavior to be relatively predictable.

Ridin' Old Paint: Documenting the Canadian River Breaks Fiddle
Wilkinson: Ridin' Old Paint W uddy Holly Center Pioneers”“Hardy Fiddlers and the Buddy Holly Center • Texas est Ridin’ Old Paint: Documenting the Canadian River Breaks Fiddle Tradition By Andy Wilkinson I did the best part of my growing up and got the best part of my education around the cowboys in the Canadian River Breaks of Texas. We lived on a relatively small outfit, but we were surrounded by the big outfits-the Bivins Coldwater Cattle Com- pany, the Killgores, the upper Matadors down the road. When we went to Channing to get supplies cowboys still tethered their horses and walked the short main street, and the air was filled with the sound of spurs jingling in unison with the clop of bootheels on the old boardwalk where the cowboys strolled in full regalia. When I was very young I thought of these cowboys as gods and wanted to walk and talk like them, be like them, know and live by their ways. The Breaks were full of music. My four sisters sang like angels in the shape-note harmonies of the old gospel music. I would discover that there were many fine musi- cians, poets and even laymen scholars steeped in the classics among the cowboys. We were Primitive Baptists and I was in my teens before I could devise my itinerary in 49 such a way that I could go to the cowboy dances. I had already learned from them some of the old songs, but when I heard their string band ensembles playing the old fiddle music, I knew I would always be a better listener than performer.
