SCR 15 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Designating Brenham as the official Ice Cream Capital of Texas for a 10-year period ending in 2035.

This concurrent resolution symbolically designates Brenham as Texas' "Official Ice Cream Capital" for a 10-year period ending in 2035. It recognizes Brenham's historical connection to Blue Bell Creameries (founded there in 1907) and the company's role as a major employer and tourist attraction. The designation, which does not create new legal requirements or affect residents, is intended to honor the city's culinary heritage and the ice cream industry's economic impact. It will remain in effect until the 10th anniversary of the resolution's final passage.
