One of the more ambitious projects discussed last week is an interactive website timeline of the city’s evolution from a Native American village and Spanish settlement to a major modern city. It could be broken out by topic, such as milestones in transportation or military occupation.
Other proposed elements include a celebration of water and early settlements at San Pedro Springs and the San Antonio River; an exhibit of objects tied to key periods of history; and a “passport” for youth to get stamped at various events, redeemable for a prize. Also under discussion are a “teacher institute” in summer 2017; walking and cycling tours; lectures, films, musical performances and storytelling forums; and planting of 300 native trees citywide.
