The Spurs collaborated with the Rivard Report, the City of San Antonio (CASA), and SAGE (San Antonio Growth on the Eastside) to bring this evening together.
The evening was a hit and sure to become a regular feature as word spreads and the event continues to grow and involve more speakers from the community.
