Foreward Table of Contents 1 PHIL HARDBERGER PARK CONSERVANCY & ALAMO AREA MASTER NATURALISTS FOREWARD ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The production of this Resource Guide to the Oak Loop Trail is a joint project of the Alamo Area Master Naturalist Leader- ship Team for the Fourth Saturday Events in Phil Hardberger Park , the Phil Hardberger Park Conservancy, and the Alamo Group of the Sierra Club Two key individuals with the Alamo Area Master Naturalists, Wendy Thornton, chair of the team, and Liz Robbins, presi- dent of the local chapter, were instrumental in leading, encouraging, supporting, and directing the effort. A large group of Master Naturalists was involved in the writing and editing process. I want to be sure to thank those who wrote multiple talking points; these contributors are Wendy Leonard, Jessica Leslie, and Christine Westerman. While many persons contributed to the editing, Jessica Leslie and Ron Tullius helped me in each picking up a third of the points to review editorial comments and finalize the pieces. But then, Ron Tullius did a superb job of re-editing the entire document. Ron improved tremendously the quality of the final product by catching so many spelling and grammar errors and suggesting many small improvements. The quality of the entire work was immeasurably enhanced by Ron’s careful work. Thank you so much, Ron.

Introduction Part 1
Introduction Part 1 The Brackenridge Park Landscape A Condensed History Imagine a clear, cold river originating from a deep, gushing artesian spring, not trickling, but rushing, chasing itself through prairie grassland. It forges a winding path that stretches southeasterly, like a ribbon unraveling for nearly 250 miles. Life blooms and bursts in many forms along this river’s upper banks for thousands upon thousands of years, until eventually, a city grows. The Brackenridge Park landscape was once a stomping ground for mammoths and other prehistoric life. It was part of a ritual migratory route for Indigenous Americans. It is the origin of one of this country’s earliest democratized water systems, executed through a Spanish system of acequias and built by Indigenous people to irrigate and provide potable water to the Spanish missions (1719 – 1724), and eventually to provide water to secular settlements for almost one hundred years (1770s–1850s). It is the site of early industrial development in the form of limestone quarries that first built up the city (1850s – 1880). It is the site of a Civil War Confederate tannery and sawmill where enslaved people labored (1863 – 1865) and the site of a cement company, which, by the hands of workers, further contributed to the building up of San Antonio (1880 – 1908). This landscape then became a grand, shady, scenic driving park and a river swimming hole that attracted locals and tourists from around the country (1899) (figures 1 and 2). It became the grounds for a charming display of buildings that melded German architectural styles of “half-timbering or rock-and-mortar methods”1 with native limestone materials that resulted in distinctly local buildings and structures that still dot the park and the city.

The Public Theater of San Antonio Executive Artistic Director
The Public Theater of San Antonio Executive Artistic Director San Antonio’s Theater for All Organization The Public Theater of San Antonio (The Public) is San Antonio’s largest producing theater, currently celebrating its 109th consecutive year of production. Its mission is to produce professional live theater that inspires, educates, and connects communities. The Public presents high-quality theatrical productions year-round and is an important artistic leader in the City of San Antonio’s cultural landscape. Its stated goal is to be a ‘Theater for All,’ where residents of San Antonio can all feel welcome in the space and comfortable engaging with the artists and the art. The Public’s direction moving forward is to maintain and improve upon its role as San Antonio’s flagship theater while creating a stronger collaborative and supportive culture, both internally and with the San Antonio community. The Public’s history traces back to 1912 when Sara Barton Bindley, a resident of San Antonio, established the San Antonio Dramatic Club. The early years of the twentieth century saw the emergence of the little theater movement in the United States. As the movement flourished across the nation, civic leaders of San Antonio formally incorporated as the Little Theater Production Company of San Antonio in 1927, updated legally to the San Antonio Little Theatre, Inc. in 1962. During the early years under the direction of Carl Glick, the productions were held across the city in places like the Menger Hotel and Beethoven Hall. The organization’s leadership eventually petitioned the City for a permanent location and on January 22, 1930, the San Pedro Playhouse opened as the first city-built, city- funded theater in the United States.
