Congressman Paul Gosar Honors Arizona’s Centennial Anniversary

PHOENIX, AZ –U.S. Congressman Paul Gosar, D.D.S (AZ-01) released the following statement celebrating Arizona’s centennial anniversary:

“When I arrived in Arizona 25 years ago to open my dentist office it immediately felt like home.  The breathtaking skyline and natural beauty of rural Arizona as a backdrop to our thriving cities and small town communities is unlike anywhere else in the nation.

Arizona is known for the five C’s Copper, Cattle, Cotton, Citrus and Climate that defined the state and grew its economy.  I believe that a sixth C, the character of its citizens, is what really makes Arizona such an appealing and wonderful place to live.

This centennial celebration is for all Arizonans, both past and present, whose character defines our great state. To the Arizonans who give life, culture, and history to this great state I say thank you. ”

Last week, Congressman Gosar launched a page on his official website to honor the historical significance of this event.  You can visit this site to see historical documents provided by the National Archives in honor of the Arizona Centennial and photos from various events that the Congressman has attended during the celebration festivities. http://gosar.house.gov/ArizonaCentennial.
