Texoma s Tourists
Boost Crowd Marks
LAKE TEXOMA:— As
the tourist season reaches full
tide, Lake Texoma is enjoying
the biggest year of its history.
The lake last year drew 2,397,-
508 visitors, and this year the fig-
ure is sure to go well beyond 3,-
000,000.
During the past 12 months,
there has been a tremendous in-
crease in the number of cabins
available for visitors, and most
resorts are still building.
The U. S. Engineers, who took
full control of the lake on July
1, have mapped an extensive
road-building program which will
begin immediately.
Another important development
is that Lake Texoma now has
much to offer in addition to ex-
cellent fishing. Boating, camp-
ing, horseback riding, miniature
golf, dancing, speedboat rides,
swimming, and picnicing are
among the attractions developed
in recent months.
Drownings Few
In spite of the great size of
Lake Texoma and the unusual
amount of boating and swim-
ming that is done in its waters,
the lake has enjoyed an unusual
safety record. The deaths by
drowning or other water accidents
totaled two in 1946, eight in 1947,
and one in 1948.
The past year has seen a sub-
stantial increase in the number
of lakeside homes constructed on
both government and private
land. And the U. S. Engineers are
planning to open two new home-
site areas to the public in com-
ing months.
Maps Available
A vigorous campaign to attract
tourists is being waged by the
Lake Texoma Sportsman Club
and the Chambers of Commerce
around the lake. A beautiful
four-color map of Lake Texoma
and the surrounding region has
just come off the press, and 75,-
000 copies are being distributed
all over the United States. In-
dividual copies may be obtained
free by writing to the Lake Tex-
oma Sportsman Club, Box 700,
Denison, Texas.
