TOMBALL CENTENNIAL CIRCLE
99 have joined the Tomball Centennial Circle and became a part of Tomball's History! Centennial Circle members received special VIP privileges at all the Centennial events as well as a beautiful gold pin and membership certificate and card.  Only 100 were ordered and each were numbered.  The pin has the Centennial Logo within a circle with a number insignia, as orders were received.  The 100th pin was presented to the City of Tomball, at the December 17th City Council meeting.  The mold for the pin will be placed in the official Centennial Time Capsule.

“Since none of us will be here to celebrate Tomball’s 200th birthday, I wish to take this opportunity to invite you and your family and friends to visit Tomball during 2007 as our city celebrates its Centennial.  In anticipation of this historic event, we decided that having only one event was not our dream for Tomball.

Known as the Hometown with a Heart, Tomball represents those things that families desire – a hometown with good schools, great businesses, churches of all denominations, fine medical facilities, a thriving economy, and great friends and neighbors.  We are proud of our city and invite you to visit us during this event filled year…” Click here for more.
