10th Annual Tejano Memorial at San Fernando Cemetery #1

September 20, 2014

Saturday
TIME: 10:00am
LOCATION:
San Fernando Cemetery # 1

In 1936, during the state’s centennial celebration, the state placed several Historical headstones at these hollowed grounds commemorating the contributions, sacrifices and roles Tejanos played in the revolution.

The event is being held in honor of the Tejano participants of the Texas Revolution who are interred at this cemetery.

The event will begin with a walking tour of the venerated grounds of one of the oldest cemeteries in San Antonio; San Fernando #1. 

The ceremony is an official Tejano Heritage Month event and is free and open to the public. Everyone is invited to attend. For more information, contact Ms. Dina Cortez at (210) 863-6191 or at dinac@hhctx.org.
