Business Benefits Harlingen has it all By Jennifer Bull

usinesses interested in excellent transportation options, unparalleled access to international markets, a good profit margin, and a driven, educated workforce will find Harlingen has everything they want. Named a “Best City for Warehousing and Distribution,” Harlingen also has the lowest cost of living among metros in the United States, and is a leader in the state that’s leading the nation in economic prosperity. Harlingen is easily and readily accessible through its outstanding transportation infrastructure, whether via train, plane, automobile, or boat. What this means for business is excellent options for importing and exporting, whether domestic or international. According to Bill Martin, CEO of Harlingen Economic Development Corporation, Harlingen is a great place for any company interested in international business. “Any company involved in international trade should look at Harlingen and this region of Texas,” Martin said. “We have an international bridge border crossing — Los Indios — and we’re part of Foreign Trade Zone #62, which is one of the largest in Texas. We’ve got a port on the intracoastal waterway, so it’s a barge port, and we’re 20 minutes away from a deep water port at Brownsville. We’ve got the busiest airport in the Rio Grande Valley, with 800,000 passengers a year. And we’re at the crossroads of two major highways, U.S. 77 and U.S. 83. Both will be designated as part of the interstate system as soon as we make a few upgrades, so from

a transportation standpoint, we call Harlingen the ‘Crossroads of the Rio Grande Valley,’ and it truly is.” Repeatedly ranked “America’s Top State for Business” by CNBC, Texas has weathered the national economic downturn far better than most states, continuing to lure companies with a strong pro-business environment featuring low taxes, incentives, openness to innovation, and even its own energy grid. To all this, Harlingen adds a southern Texas locale close to the expanding Mexican market. Since implementing the North American Free Trade Agreement, jobs and population have both grown enormously in the Rio Grande Valley region in the southernmost tip of Texas. “Harlingen offers all the advantages of a Texas location with close proximity to the ‘near-shore’ advantages of Mexico,” Martin said. “Major firms like United Launch Alliance (a joint venture between Boeing and Lockheed Martin), DISH Network, Penske Logistics, Panasonic, Cardone Industries (the world’s largest re-manufacturer of auto parts), and many others have established profitable and productive homes in Harlingen.” In addition to the great workforce and excellent transportation options, Harlingen is a fantastic place to live — one of the main selling points. Residents enjoy a variety of restaurant and shopping choices, as well as a year-round Farmers Market, a great educational system, the nation’s lowest cost of living, and much, much more. And the good news keeps coming. In October 2011, Bass Pro Shops is coming to Harlingen (see page 6). This opening will create many jobs as well as boost the region’s tourism business, as more and more people come to discover Harlingen.

Reeling in a Retail Giant

Bass Pro Shops Comes to Harlingen By Jennifer Bull

Chick-fil-A of Harlingen 1021 Dixieland Road Harlingen, Texas 78552 Telephone 956-365-3833 Fax 956-365-3063 www.chick-fil-a.com

new Bass Pro Shops superstore will soon be welcoming patrons in Harlingen. Covering an area roughly the size of three and a half football fields, this combination outdoors retailer, environmental museum, and entertainment destination will be the signature anchor for the 110-acre Cameron Crossing retail development and is expected to bring a wave of additional new retailers, restaurants, and service businesses in its wake. The boost to the region’s economy began with the creation of the city-owned building, with local contractors handling construction. Each store is uniquely themed to the region, and the Harlingen store will feature historic photos, artifacts, and memorabilia that pay tribute to the Rio Grande Valley’s outdoors heritage. Additional amenities at the store will include an aquarium, a family-style grill restaurant, and a bowling alley. Once Bass Pro is open, it is expected the store will employ some 300 people — a quick and direct employment boost. Additionally, the store’s status as a destination retail and entertainment complex will offer benefits to other area businesses. According to an analysis by Impact DataSource, the area can expect 2 million Bass Pro visitors a year; it’s projected that more than 46 percent of those visitors will want to spend the night at a hotel. Tourists come from a radius of 150 miles simply to shop at Bass Pro Shops, and if the pattern in other cities holds true, many other businesses build and grow after Bass Pro Shops opens its doors to happy customers. “There is no other retailer in America like Bass Pro Shops,” stated Harlingen Mayor Chris Boswell in a press release announcing the project. “Typically, when Bass Pro Shops comes to a city they attract more businesses, which create more jobs, more taxes, and a better community. We are thrilled they chose to be a part of our great city.” “We’re very excited about it,” said Bill Martin, CEO of the Harlingen Economic Development Corporation. “If you look at the current top 10 tourist attractions in the state of Texas, that top 10 has a Bass Pro Shops, the beaches at Galveston, and the factory outlet mall at Santa Marcos. Bringing a Bass Pro Shops to Harlingen really puts our entire Rio Grande Valley in a top 10 position in the state for tourism: We’ve got a factory outlet mall in Mercedes, we’ve got South Padre Island, and with the addition of Bass Pro Shops, we’ll have three of the top 10 factors, right here within a 30-mile radius of Harlingen.” “This is a great day for Harlingen,” Mayor Boswell said at the groundbreaking ceremonies in March 2011. Indeed, the future looks bright for Harlingen to become one of Texas’ top tourism and retail destinations.

A Community of

learning The University Center at TSTC By Jay Nehrkorn

orn from partnerships developed among Texas State Technical College (TSTC), the Harlingen Economic Development Corporation (EDC), and eight different Texas-based universities, the University Center at Harlingen has created a wealth of convenient opportunities for community, corporate, and higher education. The new 38,500-squarefoot, multimillion-dollar facility opened its doors in July 2011 and is home to a multi-institutional teaching center, the TSTC Corporate College division, and the offices of the Harlingen EDC. The building itself was designed to be state-of-the-art, including a hightech IT infrastructure and a computer laboratory. Energy efficiency was a focal point for designers as well, and the University Center at Harlingen is on track to become the only LEED Gold Certified facility of its kind south of San Antonio. Director Lisa Cavazos said that efficient use of materials also sets the building apart. “One of the things I’m proudest of is the use of wood from the army barracks that used to stand where the University Center is now,” Cavazos said. “TSTC building construction students had a hand in the deconstruc-

tion process and in salvaging the wood that is now displayed in various parts of the building, so it ties the history of this area and the college to its future in this articulation center.” A primary purpose of the facility is to house academic opportunities for transfer and graduate students from TSTC and elsewhere. The eight partner universities are working together to ensure that this local access to their bachelor and graduate degree programs works seamlessly for all students.

“I’ve had the opportunity to spend time with representatives from each of the eight partner schools, and the spirit of collaboration to make the project a success is really quite unique,” Cavazos said. “Each of the universities is truly committed to benefiting the students of this region and are excited about the opportunities in store that otherwise wouldn’t be here.” The TSTC Corporate College occupies one wing of the University Center and will continue to offer a variety of important job training opportunities. The Corporate College provides programs for industry certifications, skills assessments, customized industrial training for local businesses, and other services.

itting behind the switchboard for the KHGN television studio, Alejandro Gallaga rocked back and forth as he described his co-op job with the Harlingen Consolidated Independent School District television station. “You might be surprised to know just how many videos online or on TV that I have produced,” said Gallaga, class of 2011 at Harlingen High School South, who worked at the HCISD television station during his senior year. “Working over in the administration building, it has really been astonishing to me that a student can have this much of a voice in this district.“

Harlingen Area Chamber of Commerce

The co-op program is just one example of how HCISD catapulted into the 21st century with curriculum and enrichment focused on building students for college and the workforce. Top-notch co-op programs, cutting-edge Career and Technology Education classrooms, dual-enrollment programs for college credit, awardwinning arts and athletic programs, and a bond program filled with new facility projects geared to enhance academics are just a few examples of the exciting things happening at HCISD. As part of the district’s effort to get more graduates enrolled in college, HCISD launched a new high school campus in 2007 that put first-generation college students on a college campus. Students of Early College High School earn college credit from Texas State Technical College, allowing them to earn an associate degree along with their high school diploma. ECHS graduated its first class in 2011. Of the 74 graduates,

17 received either an associate degree and/or an academic core degree, saving thousands in tuition costs. “Being a first-generation college student, this opportunity has meant a lot to me,” said Alma Ramos, an ECHS graduate who earned 88 college credits during her high school career. “It has been so important for my entire family and my parents.” Through dual enrollment, HCISD students saved $2.2 million on college credit in 2010–11. The district also had a record number of graduates through the Texas Scholar program, a statewide initiative that requires high school graduates to exceed minimum curriculum requirements. The number of high-achieving graduates is sure to keep increasing once the district opens its Ninth Grade Academy in 2013. A new facility project stemming from the $98.6 million 2010 bond initiative, the Ninth Grade Academy aims to increase credit accrual during a student’s most critical year, while aligning students into academies (such as a medical academy) that are career-focused. “The passing of the bond issue in 2010 was a monumental event for this city because it ensured that this community understands the importance of education,” Superintendent Dr. Steve Flores said. “The program will also allow us to be innovative in the way we educate our students, specifically with the Ninth Grade Academy. The statistics show that a student is most likely to graduate if he or she finishes their ninth grade year with the required credits. “It truly is an exciting time to be a part of HCISD,” Flores said.

serving those who served New VA Health Care System & VA Health Care Center Create a Higher Standard of Care for Veterans By Froy Garza & Jay Nehrkorn

ecognizing the need for an expansion of veterans’ health care services in deep South Texas, the Department of Veterans Affairs approved the formation of a new health care system encompassing 20 Texas counties in the Laredo, McAllen, Harlingen, and Corpus Christi service areas. Named the VA Texas Valley Coastal Bend Health Care System (VATVCBHCS), this newest independent VA Health Care System was activated in October 2010.

la hacienda healthcare Single Column (SC) 2.333" x 3.167"

Less than four months later, in mid-January, the VA Health Care Center (HCC) at Harlingen began welcoming its first patients and initiated a phased activation schedule that will have all aspects of the center fully operational by the end of 2011. According to Jeff Milligan, director of the Texas Valley Coastal Bend Health Care System, the opening of the new center will have a positive impact that reaches well beyond the immediate Harlingen area. “The activation of the newest addition to our fleet of health care facilities is an important step in our new health care system’s development,” Milligan said. “It will allow us to provide an expansion of services for veterans not only in the Rio Grande Valley, but also for veterans in the Laredo and Coastal Bend areas.” One of the early highlights for the 120,000 sq. ft. center was the ribbon cutting for the new Ambulatory and Outpatient Specialty Surgical Center in late February 2011. When fully operational, this portion of the center will offer a full range of outpatient services, including six surgical suites, colonoscopy and cystocopy suites, medicine and surgery specialty outpatient clinics, prosthetics care, an amputee clinic, and a substance abuse treatment clinic.

10 Harlingen Area Chamber of Commerce

Other clinics and services that were activated by the summer of 2011 include physical medicine and rehab (PM&R); cardiology; pulmonary; behavioral health; rheumatology; gastroenterology; prosthetics; an eye clinic; podiatry; ear, nose, and throat (ENT); and infectious disease treatment. The Health Care Center also includes a wheelchair clinic. The new VA Health Care Center at Harlingen is located at 2601 Veterans Drive (off Treasure Hills), and parking at the center is available at the 750-vehicle, multi-level parking garage adjacent to the facility.

leave our hospital,” said Bill Adams, CEO for Valley Baptist-Harlingen. Valley Baptist was the first hospital in the Valley to offer robotic surgery with credentialed staff on site. The more precise surgery with Valley Baptist’s da Vinci® robotic surgical system means smaller incisions, less pain, and faster recoveries in many cases. Patients from across the country come to Valley Baptist for orthopedic surgery. Dr. Rick Bassett, medical director of Valley Baptist’s Joint Replacement Program, has performed more than 10,000 knee replacement and 2,000 hip replacement surgeries.

harlingen medical center Quality Health Services Through Patient-Focused Care By Harlingen Medical Center Staff

arlingen Medical Center (HMC) is a leader in quality health care for the Harlingen community and the Rio Grande Valley. When HMC opened its doors in October 2002, its main services focused on cardiovascular care, emergency care, womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s care, and surgical services. Today, the 112-bed general acute care hospital has expanded its services to include bariatric, gastroenterology, internal medicine, neurology, orthopedic, pediatric, vascular and endovascular, and wound healing care. On October 1, 2010, the hospital achieved re-designation from the Texas Department of State Health Services as a Level IV Trauma Center, making it the only Level IV Trauma Center in Cameron County. In addition to providing quality care, HMC is committed to promoting health and wellness to the people it serves. It continues to reach out to the local communities in the form of health fairs, health education seminars, and various wellness partnerships. It consistently collaborates with various local businesses, schools, and organizations to offer free health screenings, coordinate various health education presentations, and offer highly beneficial medical services, such as the year-round $50 HeartSaver CT Scan and the $99 Mammogram Screening during the months of May and October. HMC has earned the Thomson Reuters 100 Top Hospitals: Cardiovascular Benchmarks Award for its excellence in cardiovascular care and its ability to set the highest national performance levels for both clinical and managerial excellence; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of only four community hospitals in the state of Texas to receive this recognition from Thomson Reuters.

The University of Texas Health Science Center - San Antonio. More than 950 students from the School of Medicine at the UT Health Science Center have completed rotations at the RAHC since 2002. Most of the RAHC’s 200-plus faculty members are community physicians selected to receive faculty appointments based on their medical specialties, years of experience, professional achievements, and willingness to include their patients on a teaching service. The RAHC has opened a clinical research unit in Harlingen to bring more clinical trials to the Rio Grande Valley, giving patients access to the latest in care. The unit is in the RAHC Academic and Clinical Research Building, which also includes the VA Texas Valley Coastal Bend Health Care System at Harlingen. RAHC faculty will have an opportunity to participate in research at the clinical research unit. The School of Medicine offers a three-year internal medicine residency program at the RAHC. Thirty-seven physicians have completed their

post-graduate training through this residency program. The program plays an important role in the Valley since doctors tend to stay and practice in the area where they complete their residencies. Bearing this out, 19 of the residency graduates have chosen to remain in the Valley to practice, closing the region’s gap in physicians, particularly in primary care.

TSTC Vocational Nursing Program www.harlingen.tstc.edu | 800-852-8748 or 956-364-4000

By Dave Ralph

The instant success of the Vocational Nursing Program at Texas State Technical College Harlingen exemplifies positive results when students and faculty strive to achieve excellence. All 16 students from the first VN cohort or class that took the state Board of Nursing exam earned passing scores after they graduated in 2010 with Associate of Applied Science degrees. The program gained full accreditation in less than two years compared to the average of three years required for new VN programs to attain full approval. As the second cohort takes its professional exam, a third cohort is under way. “Our faculty and students develop close, working relationships. This hands-on emphasis brings students up to professional standards with knowledge and experience,” VN Chairwoman Susann East said. TSTC offers more than 30 majors in its Allied Health, Engineering, Computer Information, and Industrial-Manufacturing divisions, with a goal to improve the Texas workforce. It also provides Academic Core credits that transfer to four-year universities. Several universities deliver bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degree programs on campus.

The RAHC has been operating since 2002 by the University of Texas Health Science CenterSan Antonio on 18 acres of land donated by Valley Baptist. The RAHC currently serves third- and fourth-year medical students, as well as internal medicine residents, with plans to expand into a full-fledged medical school in the future. In addition, Valley Baptist has operated its own Family Practice Residency Program since 1996, as well as a School of Vocational Nursing (LVN School) since 1957. The residency program trains family practice doctors, many of whom remain in the Harlingen area after they graduate to care for Valley patients. Dr. Bruce Leibert has led the faith-based program since its inception.

Affordability Meets Excellent Amenities By Jay Nehrkorn

he strength of the housing market in the Harlingen area lies in its ability to provide both affordability and multiple options for a wide spectrum of budgets. The average single-family home price for Harlingen homes sold in 2010 was around $110,000, a number that has remained stable throughout the national housing crisis of recent years. Buyers will find that many nice homes selling in the $100,000–$125,000 range include two to three bedrooms, attached garages, and friendly neighborhood settings. Residents looking to rent in Harlingen will also find affordability with nice amenities. The average rental rate in Harlingen in 2010 was $0.66 per square foot, which was $0.19 below the statewide average for the same

period. The lower price is not an indicator of lower quality, however, as the local market includes luxury apartments and townhomes. Harlingen’s housing market, great weather, low cost of living, and high quality of life make it a terrific retirement destination. The city was evaluated on a variety of aspects important to retirees, including home listings, and was named a Certified Retirement Community by the Texas Department of Agriculture in 2008.

Homes Sold in Harlingen in 2010 by Price Range $50,000–$99,999.............. 30.9% $100,000–$159,999.......... 23.6% $160,000–$249,999.......... 11.2%

$250,000–$499,999............ 5.9% $500,000+.......................... 1.3%

harlingen happenings By Jennifer Bull

here are great places to gather in Harlingen, whether you’re looking for the freshest foods, delicious dining, a glimpse of history, or the sounds of music in the air.

Destination Downtown Being part of a community is an important part of living in Harlingen, and that community spirit exemplifies the activities offered downtown that help build a healthy community of family, friends, and good neighbors. “Partnerships are absolutely key in everything that we do,” said Downtown Manager Cheryl LaBerge. “Downtown Harlingen is a catalyst and an advocate for economic growth and redevelopment in the historic city center. Promotion and events are certainly one part of that to keep the area alive with activities and reasons for people to go downtown.” There are certainly many reasons to head to Downtown Harlingen, including the Jackson Street Market Days, a street market held the first Saturday of every month from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. “It started about 10 years ago,” LaBerge explained. “It’s an open-air street market, so vendors can rent a space for the day, put up their own little pop-up tent, and set up their tables. There’s all kinds of merchandise, from antiques and collectibles to some food vendors. It’s a good-sized event, too; it generally runs five blocks from 4th street to Commerce on Jackson Street.”

The tradition of the marketplace is an ancient one across the world, with a long heritage of drawing people together not only for practical shopping purposes, but also to socialize, hear the news, and enjoy a break from routine. “It’s an important event not just for downtown, but for all of Harlingen, because a lot of people enjoy coming not just for the merchandise, but also because they run into people they haven’t seen in a while,” LaBerge said. “They’ve got some street vendors that are cooking fajitas and brisket, so of course it smells really good! And there’s always a couple of bands that make it fun to hang out and listen to the music.” In addition to Jackson Street Market Days, there’s a new market Downtown — and it’s been a healthy addition in more ways than one. The Farmers Market, founded by Michael Mascha and Donna Navarro, has been hugely successful — and not just for area farmers. “We have really changed the conception of many people here in the Valley about what food is and what people should eat,” Mascha said. “What we’re doing with the Farmers Market is reconnecting people with real food. Food that our parents ate. Eat local. Cook your own food. Avoid all the processed food.” The South Texas climate is a particular boon. In Harlingen, the growing season is year-round, so the enjoyment of local, fresh produce isn’t just a summer treat around here. “What we’ve seen here is that the farmers have responded extremely well to the growing demands now, and we have the most amazing array of vegetables and fruits,” Mascha said. “We

have a subtropical climate, so we have beautiful salads and greens and everything even in November, December, and January. It’s a yearround Farmers Market. We have a lot of Winter Texans; they come down here from where everything’s frozen land, and they cannot believe the things they can buy fresh in our market.”

The Rebirth of the Reese Jo Rae Wagner, president of plumbing and mechanical contractor CTO Inc., is a big fan of Harlingen’s Reese hotel — so much a fan that she is investing some $6 million to revive the historic icon, with a vision of an elegant mixed-use residential and commercial development to serve as a jewel in the Downtown crown. “The Reese was a major hotel in Harlingen, built in 1925,” Wagner said. “Then it was turned over to the Housing Authority and used as lowincome housing for aged people.” When the property came up for bid, Wagner had to have it. Right away, she and her company got to work on their vision. “Immediately, we had architects and engineers start looking at the building for multipurpose use,” Wagner said. Wagner’s vision includes a high-capacity event hall on the top floor, upscale condos on the third and fourth floors, second-floor offices, and, on the first floor, retail and dining, as well as a lobby for tenants of the second, third, and fourth floors.

The first stage of the process is already open to the public. A fine-dining restaurant on the first floor — named Colletti’s in honor of Wagner’s family name — opened in April 2011 to rave reviews. Diners have been coming from around the region to sample the fare, which includes traditional Italian dishes as well as steaks. “Colletti’s is doing extremely well,” Wagner said. Indeed, The Reese already has the facilities in place and open to serve as an elegant, full-service locale for special events. “The fifth floor, which is already completed, is an event center of approximately 14,000 square feet,” Wagner said. “It has a beautiful dance floor with intricate lighting. We are already booking events in there — weddings, concerts, and conferences.” Much time and energy has been put into making the building not just usable, but beautiful. “We have renovated the building and it is truly beautiful — interior and exterior,” Wagner said. “It now has a front courtyard where people can sit out and have drinks and food. We have an interior courtyard, which we will open up this fall, so that we can have small events that people want to hold outside. We could even have dances out there. The devotion of Wagner and her staff to making The Reese a big success shows in the details. Recently, a wedding was taking place at Colletti’s, and the staff showed their willingness to go above and beyond to help their clients have an enjoyable experience. “The bride’s cake was destroyed on the trip over,” Wagner recalled. “Our wonderful manager, as soon as I walked in the door, said, ‘We gotta go fix a problem, the bride is crying!’ We took her cake to a local bakery. They put in a whole new section and created two other sections out of the mess that was left and gave a whole new cake back to her. She was really happy about that.”

Saturday in August. We try to cater towards families.” The concerts are held in McKelvey Park, an ideal location for a family event, as it features not only a stage, but a playground for the kids. The natural landscape of McKelvey Park has an incline that is also blessed — even in the hottest months — with a nice breeze. “McKelvey has a big hill that lends itself to people bringing blankets and lawn chairs, and we have the stage at the bottom of the hill,” Lyssy explained. “Our shows usually draw about 3,000 people. We’ve done pretty well over the last 11 years.” One of the main draws for the concert series is the very nice price — admission is completely free. For those who are interested, there are plenty of food vendors there, giving the event a festive feel. “It is totally free, so you are able to come and park and gain access to the grounds at no cost,” Lyssy said. “We have different vendors set up, and they sell hot dogs, brisket sandwiches, funnel cakes, and festival food like that. Our drink prices are family-friendly as well. Cokes and water are only $1. We also sell beer for $2.50, which I think is very affordable.”

Any successful endeavor has to have lots of help in order to achieve success, and Blues on the Hill is no exception. “We have a nonprofit organization that we set up to deal with sponsor funds and stuff like that called the Harlingen Volunteer Involvement Council — we call it H-Vic for short,” Lyssy said. “The proceeds that we make through each show through beverage sales are invested in future shows. “Additionally, whatever money we make above and beyond what it takes to produce the shows is donated to Harlingen Youth Athletics, which is through our Parks & Recreation Department,” Lyssy continued. “We have a summer track program, and the kids compete at the local level. Then they have a regional track meet, and if they fare well at that, they go to The Games of Texas — essentially, a mini-Olympics for youth throughout the whole state of Texas. We are able to help send the kids there, providing hotel lodging, transportation, and food. That is where the proceeds of the money go.” Blues on the Hill is truly the place to have a great time for a good cause. For more information, visit www.bluesonthehillharlingen.com.

Blues on the Hill Blues on the Hill is an annual free outdoor concert series during the summer, featuring great live music, vendors, and lots and lots of people. “Blues on the Hill has been going on every year for the past 11 years,” said Jeff Lyssy, superintendent of the Harlingen Parks & Recreation Department. “We have three different shows throughout the year — the Saturday of Mother’s Day, the Saturday of Father’s Day, and the third
