EL PASO, Feb. 13 -- The El Paso History Radio Show announces the inaugural El Paso History Summit, to be held from noon to 6 p.m. on Saturday, March 16, 2013, in the Scenic View Ballroom of the First Presbyterian Church, 1340 Murchison.
The El Paso History Summit is free and open to the public. It features screenings of local documentaries, a Town Hall meeting about local history, and an opportunity for El Pasoans to share their history with the community.
The Summit will also mark the launch of the I Am El Paso campaign. The public is invited to record their I Am El Paso testimony in a 1-2 minute video clip, and to bring up to 10 old photos to be scanned and included on the Digital Wall that will be installed at the El Paso Museum of History.
Photos will be scanned on site and returned to the owners, who will also receive a disc with digital copies of their personal photos. Photos should be at least 25 years old and have all persons identified, if possible, as well as the date and place. The scanning and the CD are free and are offered on a first come, first served basis.
At 1 p.m., the History Summit will present the world premiere of segments from Capstone Productions' latest documentary, The Last Tour of the El Paso Smelter. After three years of filming the demolition of the former Asarco site, the first installment of the El Paso Smelter documentary series covers the history and construction of one of the world's tallest smokestacks. The film includes a tour inside of the stack, a review of the construction of the stack, and footage from several climbs up the stack.
At 2:30 p.m., there will be a Town Hall meeting on El Paso history with special invited guests state Sen. Jose Rodriguez and El Paso County Historical Commission chairman, Bernie Sargent. The Town Hall will be moderated by hosts of The El Paso History Radio Show, Jackson Polk and Melissa Sargent. The Town Hall will be video recorded for a TV special on YouTube. Attendees can ask questions about El Paso's history, share their thoughts about what should be done at local and state levels regarding our local history, and contribute topics for discussion.

Borderplex Initiative
1.29.13 (LAS CRUCES) New Mexico's former governor and business leaders from El Paso hope to create a marketable region called 'The Borderplex.' The group said it will announce an executive director in March.
The light brown mountains look the same from a distance -- Juarez , El Paso and Las Cruces.
Former New Mexico Gov. Garrey Caruthers says the cities have a lot more in common. He wants to see them marketed to outsiders as 'The Borderplex.'
Economic development, business development needs to be driven by the private sector...the concept was we have so many economic resources in this area, we need to pull together, said Gov. Carruthers, who is also the Dean of the College of Business at NMSU.
...we need to invest as a private sector, but it needs to be regional. It needs to include Juarez, Las Cruces, El Paso Alamagordo maybe, said the former governor.
THE BORDERPLEX IDEA STEMMED FROM A REPORT to El Paso officials. A new outlook report was published by UTEP for 2012-2014.
El Paso companies RedCo and Paso del Norte are also in on the project.
There are some challenges for the project.
Clearly the way business is practiced in Mexico is different than in Texas and New Mexico.
The former governor says the regions share a significant challenge -- a competitive workforce.
That workforce needs to be improved. That's a Juarez issue...that's an El Paso issue...that's a Las Cruces issue...that's something we can work together on.
Chris Erickson, Economics professor at NMSU says the states benefit from factories in Mexico.
So take for example Foxconn...so the consequence of that is we've benefitted from the factories in Mexico.
Sloan Patton reported.
