History Big Spring remains poised for the next influence.

o one is certain who was first to come upon the big springs that later gave the town its name. It sure was visited by prehistoric creatures seeking water in the arid region and later by hunters with pointed sticks and crude stone tools and primitive Indians following herds of bison used for food, clothing, and shelter. Cabeza de Vaca may have been the first white man to look upon the spring, which was chronicled in his journals of his journey in 1535. Capt. Randolph Marcy chronicled his visit to the spring in October 1849 as he sought to establish a leg of a transcontinental trail. Marcy noted that the spring appeared to be a favorite place of the Comanche Indians. The spring subsequently became the base for many army expeditions to the new territory and remained the home of several Indian tribes. Many skirmishes between the two were recorded by several army officers, including Col. Robert E. Lee, in 1856, who later became commander in chief of the Confederate forces. The Texas & Pacific Railroad named the little village a division point between Ft. Worth and El Paso, from which water was supplied from the spring. This meant jobs for shops and road crews and corresponding growth and stability

for the new town. By 1881 the rail had reached Big Spring and beyond, creating a sustainable economic base. Big Spring flourished, local county government was established, businesses sprang up, and farming and ranching operations were established all in a short period beginning in the early 1880s. Big Springs’ next big influence came with the discovery of oil in the county. In 1926 the Otis Chalk No. 1 came in, after several earlier attempts to find oil, and the boom was on. Many of the early wells produced 3,000 to 4,000 barrels of oil a day. Hundreds of workers came to the area for work, and new oil-related businesses sprang up, along with refining. Today oil, rail, farming, and ranching still provide the economic base for the community, and Big Spring remains poised for the next influence, which is wind energy. Big Spring’s unique topography is a mixture of wide-open plains mixed with the convergence of the northern limit of the Edwards Plateau and the southernmost hills of the Caprock. Big Spring is nestled in a gorge between two high foothills, creating beautiful vistas and an oasis in the West Texas prairie.

Business

Big Spring has a diverse and varied economy.

ig Spring is located at the crossroads of U.S. Interstate Highway 20, State Highway 87, State Highway 350, and State Highway 176 in West Texas. Big Spring has a diverse and varied economy. Oil and gas production became a major economic force in the early 1900s, and the industry remains strong today. Present day, the economy has grown to include refining, manufacturing, wind energy production, agriculture, transportation, governmental services, and a broad range of health care services.

Strengths & Challenges Big Spring EDC works to promote the current competitive strengths of the city of Big Spring and Howard County and to take advantage of

competitive challenges. Big Spring EDC strongly markets the following Big Spring attributes:

Diverse Economy Businesses in Big Spring and Howard County range from health care, to oil and gas and wind energy production, to agriculture. With such a diverse economy, Big Spring has been able to weather any economic downturn. Transportation Big Spring is well connected by highway, air, and rail service. The city is located at the crossroads of West Texas and is easily accessible from any direction, making it part of the Ports to Plains Region. Along with highway access, Big Spring is eastâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;west rail serviced by Union Pacific

Railroad. The city also has McMahon/Wrinkle Airport, located in Big Spring, as well as an international airport only 60 miles to the west.

Community Networking Big Spring and Howard County are fortunate to have a progressive leadership with excellent cooperation among the government, educational institutions, and the citizenry, thus encouraging and allowing organizations to work to streamline the process of starting or expanding a business. Quality of Life Big Spring is the home of caring residents, friendly families, beautiful landscapes, a comfortable climate, and a multitude of cultural, sporting, and recreational events, Big Spring

www.bigspringchamber.com

has recently been designated as a “Certified Retirement Community” by the Texas Department of Agriculture and is a safe oasis to call home. Big Spring has struggled with the accessibility of skilled labor. With the educational support of Howard College and its vocational and technical training courses, we are developing a strong foundation for highly skilled labor, which will provide for a more skilled workforce for Big Spring.

Target Industries Big Spring has the ability to target specific industries, activities, and opportunities on which to focus recruitment and retention efforts. Matching location strengths to industry requirements and to industry demand patterns is critical in target industry identification and is an essential component of an effective development strategy. These defined industries are a likely match for the relocation or expansion of primary jobs in Big Spring. The Big Spring Economic Development Corporation (BSEDC) has identified six target industries.

Oil and Gas Energy West Texas, and Howard County in particular, have a strong tradition of oil and gas exploration and production. Oil, originally discovered in the region in 1926, has been a primary industry in the area and a major contributor to the local economic base. Today Big Spring is home of one of the largest inland refineries in the United States and is a hub for oil and gas processing and distribution. Drilling, refining, carbon

Big Spring Area Chamber of Commerce

black production, oil well servicing, oil field supply, and oil field equipment manufacturing represent a significant employment base for the area. Big Spring will continue to have a strong oil-related base, and efforts will continue to develop and retain oil-related industry.

Transportation and Distribution Big Spring is situated at the “Crossroads of West Texas,” making it a natural transportation and distribution hub. Interstate Highway 20 is the major east–west artery, and Texas Highway 87 the major north–south artery. Big Spring is located on the Ports-to-Plains Corridor linking Mexico with Canada, a major transportation path for goods and services manufactured or grown in the Midwest and distributed worldwide. Big Spring is the former home of Webb Air Force base and boasts an 8,800-foot runway capable of landing 737-class aircraft, a new state-of-the-art air terminal, and facilities that lend themselves to national and global shipping and distribution. Big Spring is serviced by Union Pacific Railroad on their primary east–west track, with thousands of railcars passing through Big Spring every day. These assets make Big Spring ideal for transportation distribution operations and a focus for the EDC to develop logistic operations. Agriculture Before oil and gas, and before wind energy, farming and ranching were the economic engines of West Texas and Big Spring. Cattle and cotton production continue to have a significant impact on the local economy. Recently, Big Spring was selected by a major cotton storage distribution co-op to warehouse and market cotton nationally and internationally. BSEDC understands the importance of agricultural production not only

locally, but nationally, and places a high priority on developing agriculture-related industry, manufacturing, and distribution.

Renewable Energy Big Spring was one of the first sites for wind energy production in the central United States. Some 12 years ago an over-34MW project was completed, and in 2008 another 250MW of capacity was added, with future projects being discussed. Utility-scale solar projects are now being planned, with possible location in the Big Spring area. These projects are opening new doors for supply chain industries to locate in our region. Training programs for renewable-energyrelated jobs are now offered at the community college and high schools. This new industry diversifies the economic base and offers many new areas for job development and growth. Health Care Big Spring has long had the reputation of being a center for health care in West Texas, including a 150-bed private hospital serving the general public, a Department of Veteran Affairs Medical Center, a state mental health facility, and a Texas State Veterans Home. Big Spring is home of one of the premier rehabilitation facilities in

West Texas, providing physical therapy, occupational therapy, cardiac rehabilitation, audiology, wellness programs, and a multitude of other services.

708 11th Place • Big Spring, TX 79720 432-264-3600 • www.bsisd.esc18.net

For well over a century Big Spring ISD has worked diligently to see that the 3,800 students in the community have been provided with the highest-quality education. Every attempt is continuously made to educate the “whole child,” going far beyond the mere basics. Well-rounded students who become contributing members of society take every opportunity to participate in the myriad of activities offered in the school system and community, from fine arts to career and technical training. Furthermore, the use of technology is an important tool being utilized to further education. High school students are encouraged to take college-level courses (dual credit) while enrolled in Big Spring High School. This effort is made infinitely more accessible due to the presence of Howard College here in Big Spring. Many graduate from high school with over 30 hours of college credit, which will give them the upper hand as incoming college students. The support of the community and the school district is virtually unmatched anywhere in the area. Four new elementary schools are due to be completed in 2012. • Moss Elementary (1965) • Marcy Elementary (1960) • Washington Elementary (1951) • Goliad Intermediate (1958)

The hospital’s mission is to promote recovery from mental illness and a rapid return to community life by providing treatment, education, and hope in a safe and supportive environment. The hospital was founded in 1938 and employs more than 640, making it one of Big Spring’s largest employers. Employment opportunities Big Spring State Hospital may include stipends for nursing students and short-term housing.

Comprehensive treatment teams look after each patient and prepare them for life in the community. Big Spring State Hospital believes patients can achieve their optimum level of wellness by being cared for in the least restrictive environment possible.

Presently the emphasis is placed on quality treatment to shorten the period of illness, to rehabilitate, and to return the patient to the community as quickly as possible. In order to do this, treatment modalities have expanded to include a full range of rehabilitation therapies, education, individual and group psychotherapy, and family intervention as an adjunct to medication. Patients who come to the hospital are treated not only for their psychiatric problems, but also for any problem needing medical attention. The hospital embraces a holistic approach within the least restrictive environment, encouraging physical and mental wellness through a variety of therapeutic activities. Recreation therapists focus on offering many fitness opportunities that promote physical wellness in an enjoyable and fun environment.

Big Spring Area Chamber of Commerce

caring for the health care needs of the Howard County community, working hard every day to provide care that not only meets, but exceeds, patients’ expectations for their hospital experience. We are committed to making SMMC your hospital of choice. While we strive to offer medical innovations, we know that what patients remember is not technology, but the personal touch of our staff. As part of our goal to exceed patients’ expectations of care, we continue to focus on initiatives like hourly rounding — where we check on every patient, every hour, to make sure their needs are taken care of. Additionally, we call patients after they leave the Emergency Department to make sure they understood discharge instructions and to see if they have comments that will help us improve the care we provide. Our mission of compassionate care guides not only our approach to patient care, but also our

efforts to upgrade our facilities and to expand hospital services and technology. In 2010, we completely renovated our Medical/ Surgical Patient Services floor, updated patient rooms in our Women’s Services area, purchased new sleep chairs for patient rooms, and resurfaced our north and south parking lots. In late October, general surgeon Ladd Hoffman, M.D., began offering a new incisionless heartburn surgery that has already improved the quality of life for more than a half dozen local people. In March 2011, we completed the installation of new digital mammography equipment. Now the women of Howard County will have all of the advantages of digital mammography without leaving town. Our elevators are currently receiving a much-needed update and, by year’s end, visitors, patients and staff will enjoy Wi-Fi connectivity throughout the facility. And on January 1, 2012, SMMC will become a tobacco-free facility. In addition to our role as a provider of health care, SMMC serves as a community resource for health education. We offer a wealth of health education resources for the community and free childbirth education classes. Our Senior Circle chapter and Healthy Woman program support healthy and active lifestyles and good health care decision making. You can learn more about education seminars, health fairs, and free clinics we provide — as well as research hundreds of health topics — by visiting the Health Resources link on our website. Whether it’s through our hospital services, health fairs and education seminars, or our community support activities, every year we care for thousands of people from our community. But we’re proud to say that we also take good care of the community itself. We are the fifth-largest employer in Howard County, with more than 350 employees. The employees and medical staff of SMMC are some of our community’s most active volunteers and leaders. Both our patients and, ultimately, the entire community benefit from SMMC’s presence and involvement in the community. If you’ve ever been to our hospital, you know that we take patient care personally. And now you

know just how personally invested we are in making this community a better place to live and work. Rest assured that SMMC will continue to enhance its services to meet the needs of our thriving community. On behalf of our medical staff, we appreciate your support and thank you for trusting us with the health care needs of you and your family.

432-267-6394 www.fumcbs.com The Settles Hotel Sitting on what once was railroad property, the corner of 3rd Street and Runnels has been through many changes over the years. During the oil boom of the late 1920s W.R. Settles bought the property and began the construction of this historic building. The cost of original construction was reported to be $500,000 — a fortune in those days. Opening in October 1930 to great fanfare and support by the local community, The Settles Hotel was often compared to the finest hotels of its day. In its prime, The Settles hosted dignitaries and celebrities such as Elvis Presley, Lawrence Welk, Herbert Hoover, and many others. Purchased by a hometown businessman in 2007, The Settles Hotel is currently undergoing extensive renovations. The hotel will feature historic and luxury hotel rooms, retail shopping, and restaurant and meeting facilities.

Coahoma — “Small in Number … BIG in Pride!” Tradition is rich in the tiny town of Coahoma, located on Interstate 20, 10 miles northeast of Big Spring in east-central Howard County. Coahoma took its name from an Indian word meaning “signal,” inspired by a nearby hill called Signal Mountain. After the 1881 arrival of the Texas and Pacific Railway in the area, Coahoma grew into a retail trade center and shipping point. The residents built the first school in 1891. By the time its second school was built in 1904, the town had a post office. Machinery and oilfield supplies became the most important goods distributed from Coahoma after the major oil strike of 1926. In 1928 the town had 600 residents, and its school district served 205 pupils. Between 1936 and 1956 the community’s population rose from 620 to 802, and the number of commercially rated businesses went from 18 to 23. To date the population of Coahoma is 817, and it’s still home to several businesses, including a bank. Coahoma was once the home of one of the greatest coaches in college football, Spyke Dikes, who coached at Texas Tech, the University of Texas, Baylor University, and Texas A&M. He coached in Coahoma in the ’60s, leading them to the state finals in Austin. The Athletic Department at Coahoma School is very competitive, offering girls’ and boys’ basketball, track, tennis, powerlifting, and golf, as well as football, baseball, and softball. The softball program has a rich tradition, claiming a state title in 1998, and has made numerous return trips to the state tournament in following years. Coahoma ISD has three campuses, including elementary (pre-K through sixth

Big Spring Area Chamber of Commerce

grade), Robert Ethridge Junior High (seventh and eighth grades), and the high school (ninth through 12th grades). With small class sizes and low student-to-teacher ratios, each campus offers individual attention for the students to help ensure academic success for all. Legendary rodeo clown of 35 years, Quail Dobbs, makes his home in Coahoma. Dobbs was instrumental in starting the historic Kindergarten Rodeo in 1987. The annual event honors age-old rodeo traditions and events such as barrel racing, bull riding, and calf roping, with students participating with handmade stick horses. No rodeo event would be complete without a rodeo queen and her court as well as the famous rodeo clowns, led by Dobbs himself.

Forsan — “Built on Energy, Education and Family” The community of Forsan is located in south Howard County, approximately 12 miles from Big Spring. According to a Big Spring Herald article dated January 26, 1986, Forsan was named for the four crude-producing sands at its location. Oil discoveries in 1919 and again in 1926 created this boomtown. The population grew to about 4,000 people at one point and boasted stores, filling stations, hotels, a theater, two dance halls, and several churches. Today, the community of Forsan is made up of several oil-field-related businesses, the “Four Sands Café,” Forsan Baptist Church, Forsan Jr./ Sr. High, city offices, the volunteer fire station, and a post office. The population is close to 200. The Jr./Sr. High hosts athletic and academic events as well as plays and concerts which bring many people to this small community. A recent competition from the Rural Community College Initiative (RCCI) developed the mantra, “Forsan: Built on Energy, Education and Family,” which aptly sums up this small but proud community.
