Lubbock's 100 Year Anniversary!!!
On March 16, 1909, Lubbock officially became an incorporated community and the celebration of being a new town began.  Soon, it became the center for commerce, medicine, education, and entertainment for all of West Texas and Eastern New Mexico.  Now, Lubbock residents are planning for a year-long Centennial Celebration beginning in March 2008, and culminating with a party and Lubbock legends concert in March 2009. 

Lubbock is a very young city compared to most municipalities, but our legacy ranges from the prehistoric, to the Spanish conquistadors searching for the Lost Cities of God, to the roots of rock-and-roll.  Opportunities abound for all our citizens willing to work hard for the promises of prosperity.
