The Brazos Heritage Society is undertaking an effort
%%1, to publish an up -to -date "Guide to Historic Brazos
" (tar `'" " County." We envision a booklet or brochure with four
Jack and ntugg.Gardner sections, one for each city, one for Texas A &M, and one
Jerry and Mary Gaston for the remaining historic sites in Brazos County. We
(.aryandLimla "alter anticipate that the Convention and Visitor's Bureau would
'`'" "`f be the primary point of distribution. I have been told
Sara Jarvis Jones that the Bureau receives numerous requests for such a
snl and Felice Klein guide, which it cannot fill. These requests are expected
Wleamll to increase with the construction of the Bush Library, as
it will draw individuals who are specifically interested
Adur and Ginger Leni in history and visiting historic sites.
