Welcome f rom the Chamb er!The Clifton Chamber of Commerce would like to welcome you to our community.Brochures and literature for the Clifton area are available, so stop by as soon as you get to town and let us make your visit or move more pleasant by showing you everything Clifton has to offer. The Chamber’s Visitors Center is open 5 days a week for your convenience, and is located at 115 North Ave. D, or contact us at 254-675-3720.

LocationClifton is located in south central Bosque County at the north end of the beautiful Texas hill country. Clifton is 36 miles from Waco, 135 miles from Austin, 90 miles from Dallas/Ft. Worth and 215 miles from Houston.

CultureClifton is one of 24 Texas Cultural Art Districts and home to more than 20 nationally and regionally acclaimed artists. The Chamber has numerous paintings from local artists on display in their building. Clifton is also home to the Bosque Arts Center which hosts an Annual Art Classic show and sale that receives more than 750 applicants each year. Historic downtown has several art galleries, a community theater, a community chorale, an artisan group, a dance studio and the CLIFTEX, the oldest continuously operating movie theater in Texas.

Cl imateSummers in Clifton are hot, and the winters are usually mild. An average year has 37 days of below freezing temperatures, around 32 inches of rainfall, and 230 days of sunshine. But as everyone who lives in Texas knows, the weather is very unpredictable so come prepared for anything.

PopulationThe population of Clifton is 3,442 but that is just inside the city limits. Outlying rural areas contribute another 3,864 that are covered by zip code 76634. We are looking forward to your visit to our wonderful city!Paige A. KeyPresidentClifton Chamber of Commerce

Together we’re better. Partnership that really pays.

More than $1 billion returned since 2004.When you borrow from Capital Farm Credit, you become something special — one of our owners. When our borrower-owned cooperative has surplus earnings, you get your share through our patronage dividend program. This year, our board of directors declared a record $184.3 million in patronage on our 2018 earnings. This return effectively lowers your cost of borrowing, so partner with a lender that really pays.

Each year since 1931, the Central Texas Youth Fair has given the youth of Bosque and surrounding counties opportunities to exhibit their livestock and home economics projects. This year June 2 - 6th, 2020, a hardworking group of volunteers will again provide the necessary backdrop for all the 4-H and FFA youth who aim for a coveted ribbon, to exhibit their projects at the Clifton fairgrounds.

The entry categories are quite broad and, in addition to a variety of animal entries, a partial list includes arts and crafts projects, baked goods, garden vegetables, and photography. These students work diligently all year to bring their completed projects to the Fair to be seen and admired by the community. The talents of the ribbon-winning contestants are rewarded at a Sale on Saturday, June 6th, providing business owners and individuals the opportunity to bid on their projects and also, to purchase any others of interest.

You are encouraged to visit the Fairgrounds,  view the many entries (animals and others), then make a difference by showing your support with a purchase.$

The Bosque Museum features exhibits on the history, archaeology, and natural history of Bosque County.

A Full Year of Events at the Bosque Museum!

The Bosque Museum (301 S Ave Q) has an exciting calendar of events for 2020. On February 7, the museum will host a traveling exhibit featuring the classic Western Art of Harold D. Bugbee. A total of 17 pieces will be displayed that were produced from 1929 to 1962. The Bugbee paintings have been generously loaned to the Bosque Museum by the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum in Canyon, Texas, where Bugbee once served as the curator of art. Members of the museum are invited to a members-only preview of the exhibit between 5:00 and 7:00 PM on Friday, February 6. It will open to the general public at 10:00 AM on February 7. The paintings will be displayed in the traveling exhibits gallery of the museum until March 31.

On February 22 at 2:00 PM Michael Grauer, the McCasland Chair of Cowboy Culture and Western Art at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, will

give a presentation and book signing. He will be signing copies of his new book Making a Hand: The Art of H.D. Bugbee. A former curator at the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum, Mr. Grauer is the foremost expert on Bugbee.

The Museum will host a lecture at 2:00 PM on March 8 featuring antique firearms expert David Jackson. This presentation is part of FSSB’s Celebrate Texas Week. Jackson is a legal scholar, appraiser, and owner of J ackson Armory in Snider Plaza, Dallas, Texas.

In April the museum will open an exhibit on the artwork of Forrest Kirkland. During the 1930s and 1940s, Kirkland traveled throughout Texas and painstakingly replicated prehistoric rock art. Kirkland’s reproductions are, in some cases, the sole surviving images of ancient art that has since been destroyed. The collection will be on loan to the museum courtesy of the Texas Archaeological Research Laboratory at the University of Texas at Austin.

May will see the museum’s annual Wildflower Art Show featuring works from Bosque County artists. Pieces will be displayed in the museum and will be judged by a professional artist. Be sure to check our website for an updated schedule of events on the art show.

In July, the museum will host our Stones and Bones Summer Camp for kids aged 6-10. The camp will be a STEM-based educational opportunity featuring geology, paleontology, archaeology, botany, and wildlife biology. The camp will run from July 20 – 24 from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Aftercare options will be available. This will be a unique educational opportunity found nowhere else in Bosque County.

August is shaping up to be a very busy month for the Bosque Museum. It will see the 50th Anniversary of the Paleoindian discovery at the Horn Shelter archaeological

Why shop local? Studies have shown that when you buy from an independent, locally owned business, rather than nationally owned businesses, significantly more of your money is used to make purchases from other local businesses, service providers and farms. This continues to strengthen the economic base of the community. Keeping our community unique, where we shop, where we eat and have fun, all of it makes our community home. Our one-of-a-kind businesses are a part of the character of Clifton. Our tourism business also benefits. When people go on vacation they generally seek out destinations that offer them the sense of being someplace, not just anyplace. We are investing in Clifton. Local businesses are usually owned by people who live in the area, and are less likely to leave and take more time to invest in the community’s future. So when it comes right down to it we should think local first— buy local when you can— Shop Clifton.

SAVE THE DATE! Bosque Tour de Norway 2020The Clifton Chamber of Commerce welcomes visitors to the 9th annual Bosque Tour de Norway bicycle rally on May 16, 2020. Growing consistently since its introduction in 2012, the rally continues to gain popularity among cyclists for its burning climbs, gorgeous panoramic views, the generous hospitality of local volunteers, and the unique cultural experiences of Clifton.

Each year on the third Saturday of May, bicyclists from across Texas and beyond unite in Clifton for Bosque Tour de Norway, which is the second leg of the European Tour of Texas Challenge. The Challenge is a multi-rally event which also includes Italy’s Tour d’Italia, Muenster’s Germanfest, and Paris’ Tour de Paris.

Offering four distance options along paved roadways in the countryside surrounding Clifton, Bosque Tour de Norway includes routes of 20, 40, 60, and 80 miles for riders of all ages and experience levels. At rest stations positioned at 10-mile intervals along the routes, teams of local volunteers are on hand to answer questions and serve riders. Here cyclists may stop for food, beverages, shady rest, and bathroom breaks. Support and Gear vehicles are also available to participants along the courses throughout the event.

Riders for all courses begin at Clifton High school, travel along Avenue Q to FM 219, then toward the Norse Historic District, established in 1854 by Norwegian immigrants and is an historic highlight for participants. Cyclists wind through the Norse community and past many historical sites, with St. Olaf’s Kirke (Rock Church) a popular stop along the tour. For riders opting the longer courses, their beautiful trek continues to Meridian via Cranfills Gap. In Meridian, cyclists on the 60-mile journey will travel Hwy 22 from Meridian across the northern span of the tour, returning to Clifton across the prairie that attracted 19th-century German immigrants to the fertile farmland of the Womack community. Those cyclists participating in the 40-mile and 80-mile tours depart Meridian on Hwy 6, southbound towards Clifton. Tour riders that have chosen the 80-mile circuit, turn west on FM 2136 returning to Cranfills Gap, then back to Clifton via FM 219 for the finish line.
