Commemorates the 100th anniversary of the City of McCamey, Texas in 2025

McCamey was founded in September 1925 following an oil discovery, with wildcatter George B. McCamey organizing the original townsite company the day after the well came in

The community grew rapidly from a railroad siding to a city of 10,000 people within months, with seven major oil companies holding leases and Humble Oil Company operating one of West Texas's first refineries from 1927-1932

Early residents established lasting institutions including the McCamey Independent School District, a post office, and the Tri-County Record newspaper

McCamey's current population is approximately 1,700, with an economy based on oil production, health care, retail, and ranching, and historical preservation efforts including the Mendoza Trail Museum
