Summary
Mayor Stephanie DuCheneux presented proclamations declaring 2026 the U.S. 250th (America 250) and Scurry County’s 150th anniversaries and encouraged local participation in commemorative events.
Mayor Stephanie DuCheneux opened the meeting by presenting two commemorative proclamations, declaring 2026 the America 250 year in Snyder and the 150th anniversary year for Scurry County. DuCheneux read the proclamations and encouraged residents to “participate in the local events and educational initiatives.”
The first proclamation recognizes the nation’s 250th anniversary in 2026 and cites the Texas America 250 Commission’s statewide role in planning celebrations. The mayor read background language noting the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution and the city’s intent to engage citizens in the milestone.
The second proclamation commemorates Scurry County’s 150th anniversary, recounting the county’s establishment in 1876 and the later selection of Snyder as county seat. DuCheneux emphasized local history and community events tied to the anniversary.
The proclamations were presented as ceremonial items; no formal action beyond presentation was required. City leaders encouraged residents to look for upcoming events and educational programming tied to both observances.
