Fort Worth, Texas—The Barnett Shale, which is located underneath Tarrant County, has created a rush of energy companies to drill, explore and mine for what experts have indicated to be one of the  largest onshore natural gas fields in the United States. Chesapeake Energy, a major player in recovering the vast amounts of natural gas, has benefited financially from this endeavour, and as promised, has been philanthropic contributor to many organizations throughout North Texas.

Fortunately for Como residents Chesapeake Energy has forged a relationship with the Lake Como community. A relationship that has seen the energycomglomerate live up to its civic responsibility. Though Chesapeake has used its vast profits in many areas across Tarrant County, Chespeake has shared its resources generously with the Como community. Earlier in the year Chesapeake felt compelled to help Opening Doors For Women In Need with the Como Community Garden Project with a gift of $7500.

The gala also offered guest an opportunity to sign their leases with Dale representatives during the festivities
