TO THE LAND OF ENCHANTMENT f America is truly the last bastion of hardy spirits who crave the freedom of the open road, the vista of virgin land and clear skies, the unparalleled thrill of watching a hawk circling over its prey and the quiet beauty of a magnificent sunset, then Lea County remains a part of that untainted vision of the early pioneers who first settled this land known as the heart of the Southwest.

While Lea County is on the cutting-edge with progressive innovation, quality of life remains a priority; contributing to purity of the air, the commitment of the community leaders, the work ethic of the inhabitants and the safe haven of small-town family values in this borderland of cultural diversity.

Lea County serves as the gateway to New Mexico’s Land of Enchantment, which is located on the far western edge of the Llano Estacado and represents the best of the “high desert,” famous for its blue skies and warm sunshine. In its primary location on the borderland, Lea County enjoys a truly multicultural diversity. With a heritage rich with cowboy legend, Native American legacy, ranching traditions and Hispanic culture, agricultural roots and pioneer spirit, Lea County residents are surrounded by folklore and Western mythology, as reflected in its museums and libraries. Amateur archaeologists can still find arrowheads left behind by the native people, including the Comanche and Apache Indians who once

ruled over the vast plains of the Llano Estacado.

Furthermore, geology buffs can see fossils embedded in the nearby Caprock, evidence of the different levels of the ancient Permian Sea. In addition, caving enthusiasts can enjoy one of the most magnificent underground caverns in the world, just a short drive away at Carlsbad Caverns.

Working cowboys still roam the range, herding cattle and mending fences. Of course, the ever-present oil wells dot the horizon, reminding us of the rich black gold that helps provide many of the amenities we enjoy in Lea County. As pump jacks slowly sway back and forth, kissing the ground and then the sky, their constant slow rhythm seems to complement the solemn stillness of the otherwise uninterrupted landscape, which yields the rich booty buried below.

Although Lea County has miles and miles of open range, with endless horizons inhabited by cattle and rows of pump jacks that are mirrored by the infamous clear sky, its five cities are Meccas of activity and progressive thinking.

While each city is fiercely independent and proud of its own accomplishments, all five communities work closely together to provide excellent education facilities, business opportunities, cultural events and a quality of life that is second to none.

Come and join us in this wonderful land of enchantment.x

OF LEA COUNTY ot so long ago, thousands of buffalo roamed the vast grassy plains of this southwestern corner of New Mexico, the land we call Llano Estacada Staked Plains. Although many travelers passed through Lea County during the years when Europeans were exploring the New World, these brave souls were no match for the Native Americans who claimed the area as their own. From the Spanish conquerors of the 16th and 17th centuries, the Mexican rulers of the 18th century, to the Buffalo Soldiers of the post-Civil War era, to the fearless cowboys of the 19th century, all were daunted by the endless horizons of the landscape and by the skills and brilliant tactics of the native people who resisted the onslaught of these invaders. Fortunately, though, remnants of these former civilizations still remain in Lea County’s museums, folklore and anthropological digs. Much of the land is still as wild and untamed as it was when the nomadic Comanche and Apaches called it home. Arrowheads and pottery shards still lie undisturbed just below the surface of the ground, a paradise for amateur archaeologists. In fact, North America’s most ancient pre-historic human probably hunted bison and mammoth in and around Lea County at least 15,000 years ago. Both the Clovis Man and the Folsom Man left their spear points here.

N

Lea County’s present wealth, though, is more dependent on events that took place long before the humans made an appearance. About 250 million years ago, the Llano Estacado was submerged underwater. As this shallow, inland sea slowly evaporated, the dying sea left behind layer after layer of dead marine life, resulting in huge oil and natural gas reserves that have made Lea County one of the richest centers of natural resources in the world.

Later geological changes would add an even more

important resource to the Llano Estacado: the Ogallala aquifer, a huge, underground lake of cold, pure, filtered pristine water. Although the Native Americans cleverly hid this secret source of water for many years, eventually the stubborn determination of the early pioneers led to the discovery this essential source of life.

By the 1880s, Lea County had become a haven for big cattle ranchers who settled near the scattered watering holes. They were quickly followed, however, by the even more tenacious homesteaders, who learned that plentiful water existed just a few feet below ground; hence, ubiquitous windmills now dot the landscape. Many ranchers in Lea County still depend on these windmills to water their herds.

While the never-ending procession of settlers brought stability and permanent encampments to the Llano Estacado, the Southwest remained a place of fiercely independent and self-sufficient people. In fact, New Mexico was not even admitted to statehood until 1912, making it the 47th state to join the Union and one of the last to relinquish its association with the wilderness frontier.

Even after statehood, Lea County resisted urbanization and remains a retreat for those who crave a little elbow room and prefer the peaceful, wide open spaces reminiscent of bygone days to the smog, noise and crime of more populated areas. Today, Lea County reflects its pioneer spirit. While traditional occupations still thrive, such as farming, ranching and drilling, opportunities abound for the entrepreneur looking for a new beginning, ideal weather, friendly neighbors and the affordable cost of living that make this area a great place to live, play and work.x

obbs (population 38,000) is the metropolitan center of Lea County, and remains the focal point for the arts and education for southeast New Mexico. Both of Lea County’s schools of higher education are based in Hobbs. New Mexico Junior College is a modern two-year academic and vocational college offering Associate of Arts Degrees in several categories. The University of the Southwest is a four-year college focusing on liberal arts, with both Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science Degrees offered.

The college now also offers a Master’s Degree in selected categories.

H

Hobbs is the home for the Lea County Event Center, which is the second-largest conference/convention center in the State of New Mexico. The center is a modern facility that can host large meetings and conferences, as well as indoor rodeos, tractor pulls, indoor soccer and monster truck events. This multi-purpose facility can seat 4,800 people theater-style in the main auditorium.

Hobbs is the headquarters for the Llano Estacada Art Association, a member of the Lea County Commission for the Arts. These two organizations display many forms of art, painting and sculpture in the Commission’s Art Gallery, which is open to the public. If music is your cup of tea, one of New Mexico’s largest symphonies calls Hobbs home. The Southwest Symphony and the Hobbs Community Playhouse are but two of the many cultural activities that attract people from throughout the region.

The area’s rich ranching history is captured in three new and exciting museums: the Western Heritage Museum and Cowboy Hall of Fame on the campus of the New Mexico Junior College, The Thelma A. Webber Southwest Heritage Room on the University of the Southwest campus and The Lea County Museum in Lovington. The museums all focus on life and times on the Llano Estacado Plains.

The City of Hobbs Recreation Department recently opened a $3 million facility for area teens – a complete building with computers, games, gymnasium, climbing wall and an outside skate board area. Talented full-time facilitators supervise the building.

For sports enthusiasts, Hobbs features one of the most popular and affordable public golf courses in a 200-mile radius. The challenging 18-hole Ocotillo Golf Course welcomes everyone from duffers to pros to play. On the golf course property is one of the best shaded walking and jogging trails in the state. Other sporting amenities in Hobbs include numerous public parks, several health clubs, baseball/softball fields, a paint ball combat park, shooting and archery ranges, swimming pools and water

The Memorial Baseball field is fully lighted for 24-hour tournaments, as well as pick-up baseball and softball games. For campers, Hobbs offers several excellent facilities with full RV hookups and flat pullthrough pads.

BUSINESS–HOBBS With the increase in building activity in the Permian Basin, the major community that is growing in both size and status is the City of Hobbs. The continued growth in the development of natural resources and the attraction of new businesses to this city, located in the high deserts of the southeastern part of New Mexico, will make this community one of the largest in the area. The quality of life and the development of amenities that bring good schools, successful businesses and recreational opportunities are on the forefront of this community agenda. The retail business community is made up of large national brand department stores and unique hometown shops. Make plans to stroll and experience the many shops found in Hobbs. Hobbs shopping is like no other. Enjoy small-town charm splashed with big town selection, warm smiles and that southern hospitality.

The attraction of major employers, like the National Enrichment Facility and RMS Foods, bring that high-tech quality and employer to our area, which is noted for our work ethic and education that is second to none. Both of these employers have very different skill sets of employee needs and fit right into our community. This is a great place to open up, relocate to or just work in a clean and safe environment that is business friendly. Several industrial parks and building sites are available for the small manufacturer to the heavy industry that keeps America strong. Hobbs has a building site to meet your needs.

With many of the international and private oil and natural gas producers having property in Lea County, many of them also have staff that takes care of the investments and research opportunities to explore new production sites.

For those businesses needing easy transportation access, Hobbs is serviced by New Mexico Airlines, a division of Pacific Wings, with daily flights to and from Albuquerque, New Mexico. In addition to our Lea County Regional Airport, the City of Hobbs is located only 90 minutes from either the Midland/Odessa airport or the Lubbock airport, with daily flights to and from your favorite destinations.x

ovington could be considered one of New Mexico’s first planned communities. In the spring of 1908, Robert Florence Love deeded portions of his homestead to be subdivided into lots for the formation of a town. His brother, James B. Love, seeing a need to supply basic ranch supplies only available to local families from the distant towns of Lubbock, Midland and Roswell, opened a general store in September of 1908. He became the postmaster of the new village of Lovington.

By 1911, Lovington had established a phone company, public utilities, banks, a hotel, a newspaper (still in existence) and a progressive school system with one of the first high schools on the High Plains. In 1917, Lovington, with more than 600 people and the largest town in the newly formed Lea County, was the natural choice to be appointed the county seat. Little did the Love brothers know when they decided to give up the open range cowboy life and settle on the high plains of the Llano Estacado, that the community they envisioned would, 100 years later, be a thriving community of 10,000 residents.

L

Today, Lovington’s economy is based on farming, ranching, the oil and gas industry and an increasing dairy industry. Continuing the tradition of placing importance in education, Lovington has an excellent school system.

The High School has the only state-of-the-art vision Quest Technology Center in New Mexico.

Nor-Lea Hospital District, rated one of the best rural hospitals in the area, offers several multi-specialty clinics, comprehensive outpatient services, a full-service hospital, home health, hospice and home medical services. In addition, the Bill McKibben Senior Center is a modern, up-to-date facility with a variety of programs and planned events geared toward Lovington’s active senior community.

One of the County’s most celebrated destinations is the Lea County Museum, located in Lovington on the town square, across the street from the courthouse. Entering one of the museum’s many buildings is like stepping back in time a century ago,when Lovington was just beginning to be a town and New Mexico was not yet a state with Southeast New Mexico still an unsettled frontier. The history and art exhibits at the museum tell stories of early ranchers, the first homesteaders and the rainbow of different ethnic and national groups who came to make their homes in Lea County.

Page 7

Lovington has six public parks, the largest of which is the 80-acre Chaparral Park. It is one of the prettiest parks in Lea County and offers fishing in its 11-acre lake, playground equipment, jogging and exercise trails, tennis courts and picnic shelters. A new public swimming pool is in line to be completed in the summer of 2008. Every Fourth of July, the park hosts “The World’s Greatest Lizard Race,” an event that has gained international recognition. Each year, contestants enter over 100 lizards to see who will be the champion in this famous race.

During the centennial year of 2008, the event will be a two-day affair, not only celebrating America’s birthday, but also the birth of Lovington. There are also the amenities of the Lovington Country Club and its 18-hole golf course.

The Lea County Fair and Rodeo, the largest county fair in the state, takes place every August at the Lea County Fairgrounds outside of Lovington. The rodeo is a PCRA sanctioned rodeo and attracts top-ranked rodeo participants from all over the United States. Lea County is known for its championship ropers, all of whom honed their skills at this event.

The first weekend in November sees crafters gather at the Lea County Fairgrounds for the Annual Arts and Crafts Fall Festival, a two-day event with over 100 vendors. For the last 18 years, Lovington has kicked off the Christmas season with the Electric Light Parade. Children and adults from all over the county come to view this beautiful nighttime celebration as it lights up Main Street.

In 2007, Lovington was designated as a Main Street start-up community, which ensures that Lovington’s downtown will continue to grow and be revitalized through restoration and preservation projects. One of Lovington’s most successful preservation projects is the Pyburn House Bed and Breakfast. Originally built in 1935 for the superintendent of schools, John Pyburn, it was used as a boarding house for women teachers. Designated as a National Historical site, today it is considered one of the premier B & Bs in the state and has been showcased in Better Homes and Gardens magazine.

The people of Lovington are hospitable, unpretentious, and down-to-earth, and with the city motto “Make It Happen,” the pioneer spirit that helped forge this city on the high plains still prevails.x

he site that would become Tatum, New Mexico, sat in the middle of the 1.5 millionacre Four Lakes Ranch, the largest in this part of the state. Tatum is Lea County’s northernmost town, and with a population of 800, it is the smallest. Therefore, it ideally represents rural America. Tatum has long been considered an ancient crossroads, initially used by Native Americans. After the Four Lakes Ranch began to break up, James B. Tatum homesteaded 320 acres and opened a general store. In 1909, Tatum also applied to operate a post office. After several fundraisers through dances and box suppers, the first school opened for the students.

Today, Tatum is still a crossroads and enjoys a constant stream of east-west traffic from West Texas tourists heading for the mountains of New Mexico, as well as the north-south traffic connecting Lovington, Hobbs, Eunice and Jal.

Tatum also offers many artist studios and the nostalgic Burger Barn, a local favorite gathering place.x

al is located at the southern edge of Lea County and is the southern gateway into New Mexico. The city had its beginnings in the mid 1880s, when the Cowden brothers bought a herd of cattle from San Angelo, Texas, and moved them into Monument Draw, approximately six miles northeast of the present city. The cattle were branded with the initials of the previous owner (J.A.L.) and the cattle soon came to be called the Jal cattle. The men who worked the herd were referred to as the Jal cowboys. In time, the name became synonymous with the settlement itself. When oil and gas were discovered in 1928, Jal became a thriving boomtown.

With the establishment of Texas Company (later renamed “Texaco”), El Paso Natural Gas Company and The Continental Oil Company, Jal proclaimed itself the “Gas Capital” of the nation. Oil and gas are still the major industries in Jal, although ranching remains a small but significant part of the area’s economy.

J

Today, Jal boasts a population of 1,800. Among Jal’s special attractions is Jal Lake Park, which is the centerpiece of a 10-acre recreational oasis in the middle of the desert. The manmade lake, when viewed from the air, actually spells out the name of the city (Jal) and resembles the cattle brand which inspired the city’s name. Jal Lake has become an important landmark for pilots as they fly overhead, and it is periodically stocked with fish, which provides year-round fishing to the residents. The recreation area also has tennis courts, a basketball court, playground equipment, and sand volleyball. There are also picnic pavilions, barbecue pits, and RV spaces available. People from all over southern Lea County gather at Jal Lake for their annual Fourth of July celebration.

Jal Lake also provides a wildlife sanctuary for a large variety of birds, including red-wing blackbirds, ducks, geese and an ever-changing population of migratory birds

Page 11

including herons, pelicans, swans and seagulls. These birds have all enjoyed the welcome haven of Jal Lake.

Jal also offers three other city parks to residents and visitors alike, summer access to the Jal High School indoor pool, and public use of the school’s walking track and tennis courts. The Jal Country Club has a terrific nine-hole golf course, as well as a swimming pool and game room for club members.

While in Jal, visitors will want to visit the Woolworth Community Library — one of the finest libraries in the state. The library is a legacy of the Woolworth family (early homesteaders here) and serves as a combination school and public library with approximately 10,000 square feet containing more than 35,000 volumes. The collection includes audio and video tapes, magazines and newspapers. Internet access is available at nearly a dozen computer work stations located in the library, which is interconnected with other libraries in Lea County through Estacado Library Interactive Network (ELIN). The library also features a soundproof children’s area, film and lecture theater, classroom, meeting room and a fully equipped kitchen. Just off the foyer of the library is the Woolworth room, which contains furniture, photos and other items owned by members of the Woolworth family.

The Senior Citizens Center contains a reading room with large-print books, an exercise room and a large room for playing games, holding meetings and serving meals.

North of town is the Jal Cowboy Sculpture created and built by local artist Brian Norwood. The sculpture, which honors Jal’s ranching heritage, consists of 17 metal silhouettes of cowboys herding cattle and stretches for approximately 400 feet. The tallest figures stand more than 20 feet tall. This sculpture honors not only the ranchers who still work the land in Lea County but also the ranchers who originally settled this area.x

ounded in 1909, the city of Eunice began with the opening of a U.S. Post Office. The city’s name was chosen from a list prepared by the postmaster, John Carson. Interestingly enough, one of his daughters was named Eunice. The “84 Ranch,” a well-known ranch, was founded there in 1885. In 1910, the first schoolhouse was erected and paid for by the local homesteaders who settled here. Education was and still remains an important part of life in this community. Eunice has always been a place of community spirit. In the “old days,” the 84 Ranch Headquarters was the location for school picnics, and the Carson store was the center for musicals, community sings and all-night square dances. The discovery of oil and gas in 1929 provided the resources needed for the community.

The city was incorporated in 1937.

Today, Eunice serves as a shortcut for travelers heading to the Carlsbad Caverns, Artesia, Roswell and the New Mexico mountain resort areas.

Located on Highway 18, running north and south, and Highway 176, running east and west, Eunice is a city with a population of approximately 2,700. It is a closeknit, caring community that still upholds the spirit of its pioneering heritage. Visitors to Eunice will see this spirit reflected in the organizations and facilities available, including the Senior Citizens Center and its presidential award-winning public library.

Welcome to Eunice – Home of the friendliest people you will find anywhere with a small town population, very proud people and progressiv e ideas.

The City of Eunice has always been grounded to the ranching community and built on the backs of the oil and gas indus try. We are proud to have some of the oldest working ranches in our area and always excited to explain the histo ry of U.S. oil development in our location. We are also pleased to have the only Nucl ear Enrichment Facility in the U.S. locat ed just outside our town.

The City of Eunice has enjoyed an outstanding period of economic grow th and development the past few years.

Some of the completed projects are a new Aquatic Facility, new downtown park and beautification, expanded Senior Cent er, renovated Youth Center and new housing.

We are in the process of putting in 30 miles of new in-city waterlines, a new wastewater plant and more downtown beautification. The citizens voted in a 42 million dollar school bond to build a new Elementary School, girls softb all field, new community all-purpose center and to rebuild the Junior and Senior High Schools.

Eunice is very proud of our youth sports programs, with 44 State Cham pionships to our credit. Our 4th of July Celebrati on, class reunions, parade and stree t dance are always the major attraction for the year. As you can see, we enjoy life, our families and friends.

CITY OF EUNICE Eunice has a friendly small town atmosphere, great schools and churches, clear skies, mild winters and a low cost of living. It is like the other Lea County communities in this respect. However, the City’s focus on improving the quality of life for its residents is what makes Eunice truly stand out.

In the first quarter of 2006, the City of Eunice began an aggressive program to improve its services for the community. The following projects are now in various stages of planning for completion: 1.

2.

3.

Renovating the City sewer plant at a cost of $7,500,000.

Rebuilding the City water lines at an approximate cost of $5,000,000.

Addition to the Senior and Teen Centers at the cost of $500,000.

Completed Projects: 1.

2.

3.

Aquatic Facility and State Park at the cost of $2,500,000.

New Medical Clinic at the cost of $550,000.

Downtown Renovation at the cost of $1,500,000 with next phase of $1,000,000 beginning.

In addition to improving the services for its residents, the City is planning for the future. We have initiated zoning and planning boards, therefore insuring the quality of the City’s future growth. We have also developed a comprehensive plan and initiated a City beautification plan with a $1,340,000 grant from the State.

We are correcting today’s problems and are planning for the future. The National Enrichment Facility (NEF) received their license in July, 2006 and we expect tremendous growth within the City over the next few years. They are building a 4.0 billion dollar plant 5 miles east of Eunice. Our twenty-five hundred (2,500) residents welcome you to Eunice and invite you to visit and stay as long as you can.

& CLIMATE ea County has an average elevation of 3,600 feet above sea level and an average mean temperature of 63 degrees. The Lea County landscape offers four seasons with mild variations in the accompanying weather pattern. The summers are very warm but with low humidity, ideal for all outdoor activities, such as the famous Hobbs August Nites event and one of the largest county fairs in the state.

L

Lea County hosts a number of sporting tournaments throughout the year because of our climate. Fall brings warm days and cool evenings, perfect for the inevitable Friday night football or soccer game held at the various city parks and high school, or a Saturday and Sunday afternoon of barbecuing with friends and family. Lea County enjoys mild winters with crisp days, chilly nights and an occasional snowfall; even so, the area golf course and tennis courts are open year-round because the moderate weather encourages sports enthusiasts to become all-season athletes.

16

Spring arrives early, with warm sunshine-filled days coupled with mild evenings, wonderful weather for countywide baseball games and golf tournaments. Spring buds appear in February, many fruit trees bloom in March and lawns are already green in April.

This beautiful climate creates ideal conditions for people who thrive in a mild, dry environment. In fact, we bask in sunshine over 320 days a year. Free from the smog and traffic jams of more populated areas, Lea County benefits from its fortunate location, with mountains and snow skiing only a few hours to the west in the spectacular Rocky Mountains, two international airports a few hours to the east in Texas and an international border with Mexico within driving distance to the southwest.x

In addition, outdoor Christmas parades are part of the total holiday celebration across Lea County. The holiday season kicks off with community home lighting and decoration and the business district having Santa Claus for the children. A must see is Christmas in the Desert, featuring large holiday lighted displays at McAdams City Park, that welcomes residents and guests alike to the spirit of the holidays.

We mark the end of Summer with the Annual Southwest Cowboy Celebration, called the Staked Plains Round-Up. The event brings the spirit of the old West and country life to modern day reality.

ponds, gardens, pecan orchards and swimming pools. In addition, Hobbs offers safe, affordable housing for college students at both New Mexico Junior College and the University of the Southwest with full-service dormitories to students who prefer to live on campus.

& NEIGHBORHOODS hile Lea County was home to traditional working ranches and farms, many of these properties have been developed into housing developments and neighborhoods. These neighborhoods offer city parks, schools and local shopping for the residents. The traditional American dream of owning a home becomes an easily acquired reality in Lea County because of the affordable cost of living. An average three-bedroom home ranges from the mid $90s to the high $200s in mature neighborhoods. For those residents who prefer to build custom homes, property is still available in selected areas in various communities.

Residents who prefer to rent can find two-bedroom modern apartments with all the conveniences in the $600+ range. On the other hand, more affluent residents can choose from luxurious mansions, secluded garden homes, posh townhouses or upscale apartments.

W

Because so much of Lea County is rural, it is not unusual to find beautiful country homes with barns and stables,

Senior citizens also find Lea County to be one of the most affordable retirement communities in the U.S. Hobbs has several retirement facilities offering full-service and independent living arrangements, which pamper residents with a quality dining experience, organized outings, social interaction and community involvement in churches and civic affairs. For those needing additional care, several residential healthcare facilities provide apartment living for memory-impaired residents and other seniors who need extra special attention. Many of Lea County cities offer HUD subsidized apartments for elderly residents, including those who have a problem with mobility. Both Hobbs and Lovington have extended care nursing homes for seniors who need more specific medical attention.

You will find that all five cities in Lea County not only take individual pride in their community but also collectively have joined together to make sure streets are clean and neighborhoods are safe for young and old alike. The quality of life is one of the most important issues that our city and county governments address every day. Many people stay in Lea County because they enjoy the quality of life that is offered here. The weather, people and location make it the place to be.x 17

Its unique specialty shops, the experience of having true customer service and the attitude of “we care about serving you” is still found in almost all the shops here.

Nevertheless, residents and guests alike will enjoy the many tastes of all cultures.

From famous Mexican to the specialties of Chinese cooking, there is a dining experience for every taste.

Lea County is the perfect place to buy western wear, including boots, hats, jeans, jackets, handcrafted jewelry and dressy clothing with a western flair.

Many of the shops carry unique and specialized merchandise for that special customer, so if you can’t find it in the big boxes, check out our smaller businesses.

Whether dining in one of Lea County’s “mom & pop” diners or one of the nationally branded restaurants, eating is still one of America’s great pastimes. You will find a menu and price range to meet any situation or budget. Plus, because you’re in the “oil fields,” the portions are normally larger and cooked to your taste.

These series are free and open to the public. The area school systems offer many avenues for cultural outlets through their local drama, music and art programs.

& LEISURE ea County offers many forms of recreational and leisure opportunities to its residents and guests.

The great weather allows many outdoor activities to be done throughout the year. Residents enjoy all forms of organized sports and several sports organizations are available for all age groups, including swimming, archery, golf, hang gliding and soaring, hunting, fishing, horseback riding, jogging, bike riding, basketball, baseball, softball, t-ball, tennis, roller skating, bowling and soccer, to list a few. Sports in Lea County are only limited by your ability and imagination.

For the auto enthusiast, the local auto drag strip offers both head-to-head drag racing and timed (bracketed) drag racing. All car classes are accepted and spectators are welcomed. For off-road vehicle owners, there are plenty of opportunities to drive your vehicles. Make sure that if it is private land to get permission, though much of Lea County is either state or federal land. Organized motorcycle groups are welcomed to Lea County and

several events just for motorcycles are scheduled throughout the year. We have several motorcycle dealers in the area to take care of special problems if you have one.

Water sports are another great way to experience Lea County. Most of Lea County’s water is underground in our Ogallala aquifer, and that which is on top is used to its fullest. Each community has public-operated swimming pools, several of them with a water park setting and picnic grounds close by. Again, because of the weather, swimming is a year-round activity and makes for a full summer.

There are several fishing “holes” in the area, with fish stocked by the State Fish and Game Department. Fishing licenses are required for adults and teens; children under 11 can fish without a license.

The early morning and evening brings out the bikers, walkers and runners. Because of the low humidity, our hot is hot but not wet, so many people take advantage of

The Board of Education of the Lovington Municipal Schools believes that every child and youth in Lovington should be provided an opportunity for an education which will develop in each child the ability to use effectively the basic skills of learning; the ability to think objectively and creatively; the zeal for social intelligence and responsibility; a wholesome attitude toward life in general; the desire to build and maintain a healthy and useful body. The teaching of moral and ethical values permeates the entire educational program.

“Committed to Excellence” 27

Hobbs Municipal Schools With educational reform a national buzzword, Hobbs Municipal Schools has transformed public education by raising academic standards, lowering drop-out rates and engaging students in hands-on learning. HMS is the only district to incorporate two strong and proven programs – Core Knowledge and Advanced Placement -- in all of its schools. As a result, Newsweek for five years running has ranked Hobbs High School among its 1,000 best secondary schools in the nation. In the meantime, Core Knowledge has awarded nine Hobbs elementary schools “official” status, meaning each is in compliance with stringent national standards. A portion of Hobbs schools also enjoy Core Knowledge “visitation” status meaning other schools often visit Hobbs to learn from our example.

By implementing nationally proven curriculum across the board, HMS is demonstrating that innovative and challenging educational programs are not limited to metropolitan areas.

Affordable housing, friendly and helpful neighbors and recreational activities all contribute to making this corner of New Mexico the ideal location for senior citizens and

All Lea County cities offer senior citizen facilities for activities, meals, socials, healthcare information and transportation assistance. Organized activities include dances, aerobic exercise, sports, games, trips and volunteer opportunities. The Lea County Senior Olympics offers competitive events for seniors in different age groups. Seniors who qualify can then advance to the annual State Senior Olympics. New Mexico Junior College provides affordable continued education courses so that senior citizens can participate in lifelong learning opportunities. Through the National Arthritis Foundation, NMJC also offers water aquatic classes in a heated pool for those seniors who suffer from the debilitating effects of arthritis. The semi-arid, sunny climate helps soothe aching and virtually eliminates many respiratory ailments.

Because Lea County has a reputation as a premier retirement location, the five cities cater to their senior citizens and provide one of the best and most affordable retirement locations in the United States.x
