The Cinco de Mayo Festival is coming to the Southside on May 7, 2022 at Mission County Park, located at 6030 Padre Dr, San Antonio, TX 78214 from 12pm – 8pm. The fest will feature food trucks, vendors, LIVE entertainment, a car show, and a salsa cook-off competition.
The car show features over 70 participants showcasing their classic cars from throughout Texas.
Appearances will be made by Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar and Attorney Jim Adler also known as “The Texas Hammer”.
Proceeds from this event will directly benefit the Harlandale Education Foundation. The Harlandale Education Foundation is an approved 501(c)(3) charitable organization with an independent Board of Directors. It was initiated in 1999 and has since raised nearly $1.6million and awarded over 2,000 graduates with scholarships.
HISD ranks in the lowest 1% of Texas schools because of property wealth. Ninety-two percent of the student body is Hispanic and 88% are economically disadvantaged. Research highlights a number of key underlying factors behind the low number of Hispanics who attend college. Some of those factors include limited awareness of financial aid programs and lack of funding. HEF hopes to create a college-going community by offering a $625 or $1,250 scholarship to every Harlandale High, McCollum High, STEM Early College or Frank Tejeda Academy graduate who shows proof of attendance at any college, university or technical school.
