H.R. No. 1517 is a resolution congratulating the Dixie Chicken, a well-known establishment in College Station, Texas, for receiving the Texas Treasure Business Award from the Texas Historical Commission. This award recognizes businesses that have been operational for 50 years or more and have made significant contributions to their local economies and communities. The Dixie Chicken, founded in 1974 by Don Anz and Don Ganter, has been a staple in the Northgate district, serving burgers and beers to students, families, and visitors alike. Following Mr. Ganter's passing in 2004, his daughters have continued to run the establishment, which has become a cherished part of the local culture.

The resolution highlights the importance of long-standing local businesses in Texas and expresses the House of Representatives' appreciation for the Dixie Chicken's enduring presence and positive impact in College Station over the past five decades. It concludes with best wishes for the continued success of the owners and staff, and an official copy of the resolution will be prepared as a token of esteem from the Texas House of Representatives.
