Pre-Conference Event: Tee Time at the Historic Brackenridge Golf Course.
Opening Keynote: Lewis F. Fisher is a prize-winning San Antonio author and historian. His books focus on the colorful evolution of San Antonio from an isolated outpost on the northern frontier of New Spain into a major urban center. They often detail how, in the process, San Antonio has so successfully preserved remnants of its historic past that the city has become a top national and international travel destination. His landmark book,
Saving San Antonio: The Precarious Preservation of a Heritage, which came out in 1996, has just been updated in a second edition.

Come join us and experience the flavors and cultures that have shaped the past, present and future of San Antonio!
