2017-18 City of San Antonio Tricentennial of Service VISTA
 
 
 
In 2018, San Antonio will mark its 300th anniversary: a rare, historic event that will be remembered for generations. The Tricentennial Commission, a public nonprofit, leads the way in celebrating and commemorating our 300 years by developing a year of educational, artistic, and entertaining events. As San Antonio takes the world’s stage, key initiatives include: History & Education, Arts & Culture, Community Service, and Commemorative Week. The yearlong commemoration will celebrate our memorable past and propel us into our equally remarkable future. A component of the celebration includes a comprehensive community service initiative with the purpose of engaging residents young and old to contribute to their local community/neighborhoods through a variety of service-oriented approaches and opportunities. The focus of the service initiative is to identify areas of need and leave it better than before through capacity building volunteer opportunities.
