JOINT BASE SA

JOINT BASE Welcome to Joint Base San Antonio! elcome to Joint Base San Antonio and the great state of Texas. The joint basing idea was born as a result of Congress authorizing the Department of Defense to conduct a Base Realignment and Closure Round (BRAC) in 2005. BRAC was implemented in the hope of achieving several goals: to eliminate excess infrastructure; to reshape the military; to pursue cooperation between all five military services, or “jointness;” to optimize military readiness and to realize significant monetary savings in support of transforming the DoD. BRAC 2005 was designed to reconfigure current infrastructure into one in which operational capacity maximizes both war fighting capability and efficiency. By creating these joint organizational and basing solutions, DoD will facilitate multi-service missions, reduce waste and duplication of capabilities and services, save money, and free up resources to recruit quality people, modernize equipment and infrastructure

and to develop the capabilities needed to meet 21st Century threats.

Under the BRAC Joint Basing plan for San Antonio, a city which at one time was home to five military bases and is still aptly termed “Military City USA,” installation support functions at Fort Sam Houston have combined with those at Randolph and Lackland Air Force Bases to form the DoD’s largest military base organization, Joint Base San Antonio.

In San Antonio, 49 support functions at the three joint base installations are run by the 502nd Air Base Wing, a command headed by an Air Force brigadier general. The 502nd ABW encompasses three subordinate support groups - one at each of the three San Antonio military bases.

Support functions are designated by the following categories: • Command Support - safety, public affairs, legal, inspector general, procurement, chaplain, history and financial management • Community Services - morale, welfare & recreation, youth programs, family services and lodging operation

5

• Environmental Services - compliance, pollution prevention, conservation and restoration Facilities: utilities, pest control, custodial & refuse collection, grounds & pavement maintenance, real property leases and management & engineering • Fire & Emergency Services - fire department, emergency response services and readiness (crisis response) • Housing - family housing and dormitory management • Human Resources - military personnel and management analysis • Information Technology - IT services • Logistics - supply, munitions, laundry, vehicle operations and food services • Operational Mission Services - airfield operations and small arms & firing ranges • Security Services (Military Police) - law enforcement, physical security and installation protection With the advent of joint basing, Fort Sam Houston now houses the Medical Education Training Campus (METC). This means all enlisted medical service members, from every branch of the military, train to become combat-capable medics and other medically-centered technicians there.

www.jbsaondemand.com

JOINT BASE SA

Thank Your For Your Service About 10,000 servicemen and women are under instruction at METC at any one time; approximately 47,000 of them will graduate yearly. The METC complex, which is completed, encompasses about 1.9 million square feet of facilities, including dorms, classrooms, laboratories, a physical fitness center and an 80,000square foot dining facility that is believed to be the largest in the Army’s inventory.

When one considers also that all Air Force enlisted personnel are trained at Lackland AFB in San Antonio, and when the number of instructor pilots and unmanned aircraft system operators trained at nearby Randolph AFB are added to those student totals at Lackland AFB and the number of METC graduates, the result is this: Joint Base San Antonio now teaches and houses more DoD students than at any other U.S. military installation.

Also, with the inclusion of aerial operations happening at Randolph and Lackland Air Force Bases, Joint Base San Antonio controls and administers more active runways than at any other DoD base.

Additionally, Joint Base San Antonio now hosts the San Antonio Military Entrance Processing Station Headquarters, which services as the region’s processing station for all applicants preparing to join the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps. All new recruits in the region must process through the San Antonio MEPS before being assigned to initial service training.

Besides hosting a number of widely diverse tenant units, Joint Base San Antonio is home to the DoD’s largest hospital, Fort Sam Houston’s Brooke Army Medical Center (BAMC).

BAMC itself is an integral component of San Antonio Military Medical Center (SAMMC), a command created in 2005 when BRAC directed the realignment

www.jbsaondemand.com

of the inpatient medical function of the 59th Medical Wing, located at Wilford Hall Medical Center at Lackland AFB, to BAMC.

By September 2011, BAMC absorbed all inpatient services from WHMC and provides all inpatient tertiary care as well as all trauma and emergency medical care. Changes made to BAMC as a result of new construction there added almost 760,000 square feet to the existing hospital, expanding it by roughly 50 percent. A multi-story addition houses a state-of-theart Level 1 trauma center, operating rooms, clinical and administrative spaces and an extension of the hospital’s internationally-acclaimed burn center. Additionally, about 288,000 square feet of the existing BAMC facilities have undergone renovation. Renovations to Wilford Hall Medical Center converting that former hospital into an ambulatory care clinic cover almost 146,000 square feet, re-inventing it into “SAMMC-South,” the DoD’s largest ambulatory outpatient clinic.

Another primary component of BRAC concerns military medical research facilities. The 150,000 square-foot Joint Center of Excellence for Battlefield Health and Trauma research next to BAMC will bring together tri-service research teams to enhance the delivery of combat casualty care. The nearby Tri-Service Research laboratory is a 181,000 square-foot structure housing research efforts that examine the health and safety effects of exposure to a variety of stressors in the field.

Plus, the Intrepid National Armed Forces Rehabilitation Center is providing

state-of-the-art care for servicemen and women who have experienced debilitating wounds on the battlefield. It provides military amputees with improved rehabilitation resources by using advanced prosthetics, computerized and video monitoring, bio-mechanical studies

6

and advanced physical therapy modalities and methods. The Center, which cost about $30 million, offers healthcare on a comprehensive approach – physical, occupational, social, mental and nutritional help. It also houses an administrative center for physician teams including orthopedic surgeons, prosthetists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, gait therapists, dieticians, social workers, technicians and researchers.

Two 21-room houses are built next to the Center to house the families of veterans undergoing rehabilitation there. Known collectively as the Fisher House, this residential facility has a day care and a recreational center for residing families. Plans for improvement there also include a children’s support space to help children of wounded warriors understand and manage challenges associated with their parent’s condition and treatment.

Additionally, a 132,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art medical facility opened on Fort Sam Houston. The facility provides outpatient services in Family Medicine, Adolescent Medicine, Behavioral Health, Occupational Therapy and Physical Therapy, as well as Laboratory, Radiology and Pharmacy services.

Active-duty military personnel and their families as well as military retirees may receive healthcare services at the facility.

They will also treat additional personnel coming to Fort Sam Houston as part of other BRAC actions.

Its location is extremely convenient for active-duty military personnel and their families, and even for many military retirees who live in San Antonio. It also contains the TRICARE service center offering assistance and information on the military beneficiary care program.

As you can see, Joint Base San Antonio serves many purposes and has been a great success. We hope you enjoy your stay.

FORT SAM HOUSTON Joint Base San Antonio Fort Sam Houston elcome to Joint Base San Antonio – Fort Sam Houston!

You are now part of a history that goes back to 1845, when the original Post at San Antonio was founded in the Alamo City. During that time, the Army established a garrison and regional headquarters utilizing rented buildings from the city and a Quartermaster supply depot in the Alamo. The Post was officially designated as Fort Sam Houston in 1890 and expanded again in 1905 with the Cavalry and Light Artillery Post.

Fort Sam Houston eventually evolved into the “Home of Army Medicine” after World War II and into the “Home of Military Medicine” with the establishment of the Medical Education and Training Campus in 2010.

The long history of the installation is one of the primary reasons that Fort Sam Houston boasts the largest number of historic structures out of any base in the United States. Careful preservation of these more

than 900 buildings, and other historic areas, allows the post to live with its history while

being surrounded by examples of the traditions of excellence established when the first soldier arrived here.

The post is proud of its historic role and the many initiatives to retain the historic character of the installation while serving as a modern model Joint Base for the future. A future that will most likely see many changes occur, and a future that the Army is ready for.

Many of America’s finest military personnel have served at Fort Sam Houston over the years. We hope you take pride in the legacy to which you belong now.

Upon arrival at Fort Sam Houston, officers should sign-in or register at the headquarters unit to which they have been assigned or attached. Enlisted soldiers should sign-in at the orderly room of the organization to which they have been assigned or attached. All soldiers, officers and enlisted should check with their unit personnel NCO and reference security processing.

Houston was called “The Raven” by the Cherokees. He returned to Maryville, Tennessee, and became a schoolmaster. Enlisting in the Army during the War of 1812, Houston rose to the rank of First Lieutenant. Wounded three times at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend in Alabama serving under General Andrew Jackson, he resigned from the Army in 1818 and became an Indian Agent. Houston studied law and was elected prosecuting attorney and was then appointed a major general of the Tennessee Militia. At age 30, he became a Congressman from Tennessee and four years later, Governor. Houston married in 1829, but shortly afterward his wife left him.

He resigned from the office and rejoined the Cherokees.

There, he decided his destiny awaited him in Texas. Houston arrived in Texas in 1832, became involved in the struggle for independence, and on November 12, 1835, he was elected Major General of the Texas Army. He was delegate to the Convention

HISTORY been conducted, including the first effective use of the Command Post Exercise in 1911. Field exercises in the 1930s developed the Triangular Division. This streamlined, mobile organization was the foundation of the Army combat power in World War II. The delivery of troops to the battle field by air was also tested here from 1939-1941.

Aeromedical evacuation of casualties was first developed here as early as 1917. At the end of the Second World War, the Army decided to make Fort Sam Houston the principal medical training facility. In conjunction with this decision came the determination to develop Brooke General Hospital into one of the Army’s premier medical centers.

Today, Fort Sam Houston is the largest and most important military medical training facility in the world. Throughout its existence, a close and harmonious relationship has prevailed between Fort Sam Houston and the City of San Antonio. The two have grown and matured together. The city has often been called the “mother-in-law of the Army” because so many soldiers including Dwight D. Eisenhower met their future spouses here.

The significant contributions of Fort Sam Houston to the United States were recognized in 1975 when the post was designated as a National Historic Landmark. As one of the Army’s oldest installations, Fort Sam Houston boasts the largest collection of historic structures - more than 900 buildings.

Even more consequential than the numbers, is the historical integrity of the post’s different sections which represent the different eras of construction and reflect Army concepts in planning and design. Careful preservations of these areas allows the post to live with its history, surrounded by existence of the traditions of excellence established when the first soldiers arrived here. But Fort Sam Houston does not dwell in the past. It is a dynamic and growing installation, taking on new missions such as the home of the Army Medical Command Headquarters. In addition to command headquarters, Ft. Sam is also home to U.S. Army North, U.S. Army South, Fifth Recruiting Brigade, 12th ROTC Brigade, U.S. Navy Regional Recruiting, The San Antonio Military Entrance and Processing Station and the U.S. Naval School of Health Sciences, and Bethesda Detachment.

The barracks and hospital have been converted to office space, the Guard House became the Learning Center, and the bakery became the Military Police Station.

Staff Post

Designed by Alfred Giles, the homes on the Staff Post were built for the officers of the headquarters in the Quadrangle. The largest quarters, set aside for the Commanding General, were designated the Pershing house in honor of General John J. Pershing who lived there in 1917. The Post Hospital, built in 1886, has become the Sam Houston House, temporary lodging for VIPs.

HISTORY The Quadrangle

Oldest structure on the post, this former Quartermaster Supply Depot served as headquarters for the Third and Fourth Armies. Today, the Fifth U.S. Army/ARNORTH occupies these historic grounds. The Quadrangle has become the focal point of the Fort Sam Houston National Historic Landmark District. The 624-foot, square limestone structure encloses an eight-acre courtyard. Along the west, south and east sides were storerooms for supplies and equipment.

Originally, only the center third of the south side had a second story. There, offices for the supply officers were located. When the Department Headquarters was to move the Quadrangle in 1881, the second story was extended to the remainder of the south side. The 90-foot tower in the center of the Quadrangle originally held a water tank. This was replaced by a clock in 1882.

The current faces on the clock were installed in 1907. The expansion of the headquarters’ staff eventually required the movement of all supply functions out of the Quadrangle in 1922. Since then, headquarters has been the sole occupant.

Generals Frederick Funston, John J. Pershing and Dwight D. Eisenhower are a few of the distinguished soldiers whose offices were here.

Visitors may take a walking tour around the Quadrangle. Points of interest are marked with explanatory signs. Additional information is

available at the kiosk near the Sally Port (entrance). Additionally, military vehicles and artillery are on display west of the Quadrangle.

As an active military headquarters, the Quadrangle is operational around the clock everyday. A Military Police checkpoint is located at the entrance. The public is welcome to visit the Quadrangle from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. weekdays and from noon-6 p.m. on weekends. The Quadrangle is closed to visitors on Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day.

LACKLAND

History of Lackland Air Force Base Construction began on what would become Lackland Air Force Base in 1941.

In 1942 it separated from Kelly Field and became an independent organization called the San Antonio Aviation Cadet Center and would hold that name until officially designated as Lackland Air Force Base after Brigadier General Frank Lackland in 1947.

In 1943, the War Department approved the creation of the 78th Flying Training Wing (Preflight) at San Antonio and assigned it to the AAF Central Flying Training Command.

The 78th FTW instructed aviation cadets on the mechanics and physics of flight and also initiated policies that the cadets had to pass courses in mathematics and other classes.

These cadets were then taught to apply this knowledge by teaching them aeronautics, deflection shooting, and thinking in three dimensions. Once all of these criteria were met, the graduates were designated as aviation cadets and were sent to one of the primary flight schools for pilot training.

The training population at Lackland increased to 28 basic military training squadrons (BMTS) within the 3700th Military Training Wing during the Korean War. These numbers were so great that temporary facilities had to be built to replace the vast amount of tents that recruits were staying in. The number of BMTS was reduced to 16 in 1955.

During the buildup that occurred for the Vietnam War a “split-phase” training was initiated from August 1965 to April 1966. This program provided for 22 days at Lackland and 8 days at a technical school, with directed duty assignees receiving the

full 30 days at Lackland. After that, basic training was set at a length of six weeks .

Training during this time was expanded to include teaching English to Allied military members from foreign countries.

More permanent facilities were constructed during the 1960s, including four 1,000-person steel and brick Recruit Housing and Training (RH&T) dormitories.

These units included living space, dining halls, and training areas for four basic training squadrons under one roof. By the end of this construction phase six full-size dormitories, and two 600-person facilities, were constructed, enabling excess space to be converted to classroom use.

In late 1951 Air Defense Command selected Lackland Air Force Base as one of twenty-eight radar stations built as part of the second segment of the permanent radar surveillance network.

In February of 1953 the 741st Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron was activated at Lackland and utilized an AN/ FPS-3 search radar along with an AN/FPS-4 height-finder radar. In 1958 the AN/FPS-4 height-finder radar was upgraded to AN/ FPS-6 and AN/FPS-6A sets.

In late 1959, Lackland was performing air-traffic-control duties for the Federal Aviation Administration and in 1963, the site was redesignated as NORAD ID Z-75.

In September 1972, the Houston based 630th Radar Squadron sent a detachment (OL-D) to this FAA-operated site to set up an AN/FPS-6 height-finder radar to

41

join the AN/FPS-66A search radar already in place (Z-241). The Air Force ceased using the Lackland AFB radar site on 30 September 1976.

Today the Lackland ADC site has been taken over by the FAA and remains in operation. This now-FAA long-range radar site is data-tied into the Joint-Surveillance System. The site still operates the AN/FPS-66A search radar.

With the end of the Cold War, base realignment and closure (BRAC) actions in the 1990s moved several specialized training programs from Lackland. This included Air Education and Training Command’s relocation of Air Force Officer Training School (OTS) from Lackland to Maxwell Air Force Base.

Along with the closure of Kelly AFB, Lackland gained a portion of the base known as Security Hill. Security Hill is home to numerous units such as Air Force Space Command’s 24th Air Force and 67th Network Warfare Wing and the Air Force Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Agency. All units on Security Hill are considered tenant units.

Lackland now includes part of the Kelly airstrip, Security Hill, main base Lackland, and the old Medina officer training base now named Medina/ Lackland Training Annex.

In April of 2012, Lackland served as an overflow shelter for an influx of illegal immigrant minors after the Administration for Children and Families determined that all other local shelters were filled to capacity.

History of Randolph Air Force Base The Air Corps Act of 1926 created two new brigadier general positions and started a five year program to expand the Air Corps.

Frank P. Lahm took one of those positions and was placed in charge of all flying training.

The Air Corps Training Center was formed by General Lahm in August of 1926.

This center was originally housed at Duncan Field in Texas, however he deemed that the facilities were insufficient and that a new location was needed. It was recommended that an additional training field be built in San Antonio, and in early 1927 a board of officers approved the layout.

www.jbsaondemand.com

The base was named after Captain William Millican Randolph, a graduate of Texas A&M from Austin, who was killed in February of 1928 during a crash. Captain Randolph had been serving on the committee to select a name for the new field at the time of his death, and the committee thought it a fitting tribute to him.

Randolph Field was dedicated in June of 1930 and during the ceremony an estimated 15,000 people cheered as a fly-by of 233 planes occurred. The School of Aviation Medicine from Brooks Field and theinitial service squadron began relocating to Randolph in early 1931. In October of that year the Air Corps Training Center moved its headquarters from Duncan Field to Randolph and other personnel fol lowed. Operations were underway when the Primary Flying School opened at Randolph in November of 1931.

Because of a requirement in the Air Corps Act of 1926 mandating that all rated pilots com prise 90% of all commissioned officers of the Air Corps, nearly all new officers of the Air Corps underwent Randolph’s pilot training program. This was a partial reason

50

why Mayor Chamber’s term “West Point of the Air” became the unof ficial nickname for Randolph Field.

In 1941, the Army Air Corps changed to the Army Air Forces. Randolph continued basic flying training until March of 1943, this was when the central instructors school took over. For the next two years, Randolph had 15,396 instructor graduates from this course before it moved to Waco Field in 1945. When the school moved to Waco Field it was replaced by the Army Air Forces pilot school and primary pilot training returned to Randolph.

In September of 1947, the U.S. Air Force became a separate branch of its own and Randolph Field was officially renamed Randolph Air Force Base in January of 1948.

Randolph became the Air Force’s Instructor Pilot (IP) training base and had that as its primary mission until requirements for new pilots during the Vietnam War revived its basic training function.

More than 1,260 pilots earned their wings at Randolph between 1967 and 1971.

SAN ANTONIO

Welcome to the Alamo City! ounded in 1691 by Spanish missionaries, San Antonio became a Military Garrison in 1718, and was settled by white settlers in the 1720s and 1730s under Austin’s colonization program. It is most famous for the legendary Battle of the Alamo in 1836, when the Mexican General Santa Anna, seeking to curb the aspirations of the Anglo Americans who had claimed San Antonio from his brother-in-law, wiped out a band of Texan volunteers. San Antonio’s claim to be the “birthplace of the revolution” was borne out by its role during Texas’ ten subsequent years of independence. After the Civil War, it became a hard-drinking, hard-fighting “sin city,” at the heart of the Texas cattle and oil empires.

San Antonio is now the seventh largest city in the U.S., but it retains an unhurried, organic feel, thanks to a winning combination of small-town warmth, respect for diversity and a self confidence rooted in its own history.

San Antonio has major interstate freeways leading into it from every direction. The city is surrounded by two loops, Loop 410 and Loop 1604. All freeways lead into the central business district, which is linked directly to the airport by expressway.

Downtown travel is a breeze on the VIA

Streetcar, an open air, authentic reproduction of a rail streetcar, which traveled the streets of San Antonio more than 50 years ago. Four streetcar routes to downtown locations include the Alamo, the Spanish Governor’s Palace, La Villita, Sunset Station, the Southwest School of Art and Craft, the Institute of Texan Cultures, the King William Historic Distric area and downtown shopping. Convenient access to all routes are available from the downtown street car station on Convention Plaza.

One of the city’s top-level professional sports teams is the San Antonio Spurs of the National Basketball Association. The San Antonio Spurs have called the Alamo City home for the past 43 years. Over the last 18

51

years, the Silver and Black have enjoyed a tremendous amount of success on and off the court.

Since Tim Duncan joined the team in 1997, the Spurs have captured five NBA Championships and have posted the best regular season winning percentage of any team in the four major sports (MLB, NBA, NFL, and NHL). During that time, San Antonio has posted the NBA’s best record five times (1998-99, 2000-01, 2002-03, 201112 & 2013-14) and has won eleven division titles. The Spurs organization has been named the best franchise in professional sports three times (2003, 2005, 2014) in the annual ESPN The Magazine Ultimate Standing survey (each year the Ultimate Standings ranks every professional team in a formula using analysis of team financial

www.jbsaondemand.com

SAN ANTONIO data combine with fan feedback in which over 30,000 fans judge teams by eight factors including players, bang for the buck, owner ship, and stadium experience).

The Spurs are led by head coach Gregg Popovich, who has been at the helm since 1996 and is the longest tenured coach in the four major sports. Popovich is one of only five coaches in history with five-ormore NBA Championships (along with Red Auerbach, Phil Jackson, John Kundla and Pat Riley).

San Antonio is expanding and giving the residents what they are asking for. The city is currently constructing multiple amateur sports facilities and also creating a dedicated performing arts venue. The city spent $4 million in county funds to develop and build the new Dolph and Janey Briscoe Western Art Museum on the River Walk.

The urban core and the East Side are being overhauled to encourage new development in those areas, creating more businesses and a safer environment in which to live and work in. The Greater San Antonio Chamber of Commerce has worked hard on these projects and many others, such as the build ing of Freeman Coliseum, over the past few decades and has plans for many more renewal undertakings.

The McNay also offers 23 acres of beautiful grounds to take a stroll in or picnic, and even holds special public events on specific days.

3. The Alamo City continues being Military City.

San Antonio is famously known as the Alamo City due to the well-known battle fought in 1836. Having already been a militaristic site, San Antonio is also known to be Military City USA now due to its high military presence, whether on active service or as veterans. The Alamo’s distinctive history shapes the Joint Base city it is today.

www.jbsaondemand.com

4. The Missions and Spanish influence in the city.

Along with the Alamo, Missions National Historical Park is a popular attraction where one can learn of San Antonio’s Hispanic culture. Four Spanish colonial missions—Concepción, San José, San Juan, and Espada—offer an eight-mile path for cycling or walking. You can canoe or kayak on the river alongside the parts of the Mission Reach. This rich history embedded in San Antonio adds more value to living in the city, especially if you and your family are history buffs. Looking for a Spanish or historically-styled home?

6. The South Texas heat can break a sweat.

Texas is known to have a wide range of weather patterns, especially when living in the southern most parts of Texas. San Antonio, along with surrounding southern cities, experiences the summer heat much longer than most northern or western parts of Texas. The summer heat starts in May and can last up until October with triple digit heat waves peaking in July. If you’re relocating from cooler states, it’ll be vital to adjust to the Texas heat by staying hydrated and avoiding outdoor activities during the hottest times of the day.

It is also important to note that during the summer months, electric bills may go up.

However, San Antonio is full of old oak trees that can create much shade over homes and help keep the electric bill down. For this, a San Antonio area REALTOR® can help you narrow down your search on a home with surrounding oak trees.

7 Things San Antonio Home Buyers Need To Know

S

o you’re a buyer in San Antonio...congratulations! As one of the fastest-growing real estate markets in the country, San Antonio is an amazing place to own a home. Whether you’re new to the city or simply switching neighborhoods, there are a few things you need to know about San Antonio’s unique buying culture. Don’t start the process without these key insights!

1. What do home prices look like?

If you’re a buyer in any market, it’s important to know the average and median home prices so you can know where you stand in relation to other buyers. Since every city is different, maybe you can afford luxury in San Antonio when you couldn’t before. On the other hand, you might be forced to downsize a bit to accommodate big-city prices. In May of 2015, the median price for a San Antonio home increased above $200k for the first time, resting at $202,500. The average price last month was recorded at $246,772. About 49% of home sales were under $200k, approximately 45% were between $200k-$500k,

69

and just under 6% were above $500k.

2. What is a title company?

Texas is one of the 19 states in the US that requires the use of a title company in a real estate transaction. Many states require or allow an attorney to oversee the transfer of a property title; however, if you’re buying a home in San Antonio, you’ll definitely need to know the role of a title company. Title companies ensure that the home you’re buying is clear of anything illegitimate or unpaid. This process is important as it will catch any remaining mortgages, etc. The title company will be with you every step of the buying process up through closing paperwork.

REAL ESTATE

3. What’s a seller’s market?

4. Where is everyone buying?

In real estate, the market is usually classified as either a buyer’s or seller ’s market. These two terms simply indicate who has the advantage in the current market.

For example, in a buyer’s market, there is more supply than demand...and vice versa in a seller’s market. In March of 2014, Forbes named San Antonio the #3 top seller’s market in the US…and it has only grown stronger in the past year! As more and more people join the housing market, interest rates go down for buyers and prices become more favorable for sellers. For the buyer, this means that competition is greater for each house. This is a good thing because it means that the city’s real estate market is thriving, and people want to live in San Antonio!

The most important part of real estate is location! So, where is the market trending? Where is everyone buying? Currently, northern San Antonio is booming with new, up-and-coming neighborhoods, along with some established, thriving areas. The Northwest side in particular is expanding at an exciting rate. Below are some of the bestselling communities in the city.

1.

Alamo Ranch | Northwest | $150k-$575k

2.

Canyon Springs | North Hwy 281 | $129k-$800k

3.

Fair Oaks Ranch | North I-10 | $146k-$600k

4.

Northwest Crossing | Northwest | $17k-$178k

5.

Sonoma Ranch | Northwest | $244k-$659k

5. What to look for in a REALTOR® When buying a home, it’s important that you find a knowledgeable, reputable REALTOR® specific to your needs and personality. You’ll want to ensure that your agent is certified in all the necessary areas. For example, if you’re working with luxury real estate, you might want to check and see if your REALTOR® has experience with upper-tier home sales. Your agent should know the San Antonio area very well so that he or she can help you find the right neighborhood for you. Since San Antonio is quite spread out, there is a lot of ground to cover. If you choose a REALTOR® who isn’t familiar with the city, there’s a real chance you could miss out on the best home for you and your family. Locally sourced realtors will also have connections with local lenders, builders, or others who might need to be involved in your home buying process.

6. How fast are homes selling?

Because the demand for housing in San Antonio is so great right now, the San Antonio Board of Realtors reported that homes sold in May 2015 only stayed on the market an average of 59 days! Homes are selling quickly right now. This means that, if you’re buying a home in the San Antonio real estate market, you might want to act fast. Know what you want and be ready to start the buying process if you feel the time is right. That being said, remember to stay calm and not rush into such an important decision...one of the reasons it’s important to have an experienced REALTOR® on your side who is knowledgeable about the San Antonio area!

7. What do interest rates look like?

Seeing as it’s a seller’s market, interest rates in San Antonio are currently on the low side of the spectrum. According to the San Antonio Economic Development Foundation, these low interest rates have continued to drive forward San Antonio’s real estate market! Each dollar you spend as a buyer goes further than ever before. This only further confirms that your decision to buy a home in San Antonio is a good one.

elocating to a new city can be one of the most challenging parts of military life. Families must adjust quickly to new routines, neighborhoods, and a new school community. In San Antonio, Catholic schools are ready to walk alongside you, offering not just classrooms, but communities of faith, support, and belonging. Our schools live this year’s theme: Guided by Faith, Radiating Hope, and they are rooted in excellence.

Rooted in Excellence With 35 Catholic schools across the Archdiocese of San Antonio, families have access to an array of options designed to meet the needs of every child. Our schools serve students from pre-K3 through 12th grade, blending academic rigor with Catholic values to form young people prepared for both college and life.

The results speak for themselves: Catholic high schools celebrate a 99.9% graduation rate, with the Class of 2025 earning more than $104 million in college scholarships among just 605 graduates. Families also benefit from specialized programs: • 1 Classical Academy focused on traditional liberal arts and faith formation.

• •

3 Dual Language Programs nurturing bilingual and bicultural learners.

2 Microschools designed for innovative, small-scale learning environments.

Guided by Faith Military families face unique challenges, from frequent moves to balancing family life with service commitments. In Catholic schools, you’ll find teachers and leaders who see their work as a vocation, not just a job.

Their calling is to ensure that every child is known, loved, and guided.

We believe parents are the first teachers of faith, and Catholic schools extend what families already teach at home. By uniting Gospel values with strong academics, our schools guide children to grow in wisdom, resilience, and a commitment to serve others—qualities that resonate deeply with the military community.

Radiating Hope For many families, the question is not whether Catholic education is the right fit, but whether it’s affordable. Thanks to programs like Hope for the Future (HFF), thousands of families have already found

support in making Catholic schools possible.

Families in Texas may also benefit from the Education Savings Account (ESA) program, a lottery-based initiative that provides financial support for tuition, fees and approved educational expenses. While not all families are selected, ESAs can serve as an additional resource. Whether your family arrives during the application window or afterward, Catholic schools will guide you through the process so your children can access a Catholic education.

A Community That Welcomes You San Antonio’s Catholic schools are more than institutions of learning—they are communities where military families find belonging. Guided by Faith, Radiating Hope, and Rooted in Excellence, our schools prepare students not only for college and career, but also for a life of service and discipleship.

Created in 1971, the Main City Park contains a 20-acre lake which is the focus of an annual fishing event for children. Walking trails, football field, basketball court, skate spot, three baseball fields, multiple playscapes, a nationally known disc golf course, pavilions, swimming pool, and a clubhouse are just a few of the amenities offered. In addition, the Woodcrest Park is approximately 32 acres and offers a large playscape with an artificial turf surface and concrete walk/run trails in a natural woods setting. The walking and jogging trails are thoughtfully looped to get you back to the starting area with several trails, park benches, and picnic tables so you can stop, rest, and enjoy nature.

Live Oak has evolved from a rich farming and ranching tradition to developments of peaceful residential neighborhoods, multiple shopping centers, a major hospital and medical complexes, college campuses, and financial resources.

Live Oak’s Lakeside Park is an ideal location for picnics, walks, or a day of fishing which is stocked twice a year with a variety of fish. Its gazebo is the perfect location for getting those one-of-akind photos with the picturesque lake as a backdrop. In the cooler months, fishermen can expect to find sizable trout; in the summer months, they can find a plenty of catfish and bass.

Relax, sit back, and enjoy the natural sights of our waterfowl including swans, ducks, and Egyptian geese. For water enthusiasts, paddle boards, kayaks, canoes, and other non-motorized boats are allowed during daylight hours.

THE BEGINNING In the beginning Barbee and Murray Winn had a vision. In the middle of their vacant fields, where crops had been harvested, they viewed a city, not yet developed, where people could live and raise their families; where friendships could grow; where patriotism and civic pride would thrive; where peace and tranquility could be experienced; a city of quality, large enough to be self-sufficient, yet small enough for its residents to shape their destiny. They saw a place where residents could be involved and a place to proudly call home. Through many years of development and nurturing, the efforts of these visionaries have created the unique City you see today.

IN REMEMBRANCE: A HEART AS BIG AS WINDCREST. Trees for Charlotte In honor of the late Council Member Charlotte LaBasso, Mayor Rick Bruns proclaimed the day of February 22, 2010 as Charlotte Labasso Day. Community Involvement Charlotte Labasso was very special member of the Windcrest community. From serving on City Council (2002 to 2008), to being an active member of Windcrest United Methodist Church and a member of several Windcrest civic organizations, Charlotte represented so much that makes our Windcrest community great.

-An Excerpt from: History of Windcrest:1959 to 2009

By Joseph Regan and Danette Foxx

Presentation of Proclamation At the February 22, 2010 City Council meeting her husband, Frank LaBasso, was presented with the proclamation and the knowledge that a grove of trees would be planted in the City in honor of his late wife. The grove of trees and bench will allow her friends and family to sit and remember her fondly in serenity of Takas Park.

Development The City of Windcrest’s Takas Park was acquired and developed under the administration of Mayor E. James Seal (1971 to 1974). Takas Park is built on land, which originally was in the City of San Antonio, Texas, and through a de-annexation process the land was obtained by the City of Windcrest for a community park serving Windcrest and its surrounding areas. In addition to its use as a community park, a portion of the park was dedicated for Little League baseball fields.

Park Dedication On April 10, 1995, Takas Park was officially dedicated to Steve and Louise “Lou” Takas for their years of service to the City of Windcrest.

Steve Takas Steve Takas, Sr. served as the Windcrest Volunteer Fire Department’s Fire Chief, City of Windcrest’s Building Official, Code Enforcement Officer, and Fire Marshall.

Louise ”Lou” Takas Louise “Lou” Takas was involved in many aspects of City government. She was a member of the Windcrest Volunteer Fire Department and was responsible for the Annual Firemen’s Picnic. Lou is most noted for the Christmas Angel Project which provided needy area families with Christmas food and gift items. Lou was the driving force behind

www.jbsaondemand.com

Local Parks Grant from the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department In May of 2006, former Mayor Jack H. Leonhardt and Public Works Director, Charles Lackey applied for and were awarded a grant to beautify the walking trails from Takas Park to Windy Hollow. The State of Texas sales tax on sporting goods partially funded the project and the Windcrest Public Works Department spent several months putting in the bridges, benches and exercise equipment along the trails. Now one of the most scenic parts of the City of Windcrest, the walking trails have seen a lot of traffic since their completion in September of 2009.

CANYON LAKE

WELCOME Canyon Lake he lure of the waters of the Guadalupe River drew the first settlers to this area. By the mid 1800s, settlements began to take hold. Flooding was a major problem all along the Guadalupe, and after major floods hit in 1936 and 1938, the people began to demand that the government take some action. After thorough research, the US Army Corps of Engineers selected the spot for the dam about 16 miles north of New Braunfels.

Canyon Lake, as we know it, happened once the dam was built. Since its dedication in 1966, the area has flourished as a water recreation destination. Tubing along the Guadalupe is a perennial favorite, but the river is also known for its trout fishing, a favorite among anglers below the dam. The lake also offers fishing, stocked primarily with bass and catfish. Boating, water skiing, swimming and personal watercraft use also attract many visitors to the lake, along with a relaxed, laid-back atmosphere in all its communities.

One visit is all it takes to become enchanted with what is now known as the “Water Recreation Capital of Texas.”

Fishing the Guadalupe River

Each year, outdoor enthusiasts enjoy a variety of activities on the Guadalupe River near Canyon Lake. Fishing, especially trout fishing, is a popular activity on this beautiful central Texas river. The Guadalupe is over 250 miles long and flows from the western edge of the Texas Hill Country to the Gulf of Mexico. For the first 15 or so miles below Canyon Lake Dam, the river is also commonly called the Canyon Reservoir Tailrace.

This stretch of the river is one of the state’s most popular freshwater trout fisheries and is the only year-around trout fishery in Texas.

It has been voted one of the Top 100 Trout Streams in America. The cold water released deep from Canyon Lake makes year-around survival of trout possible. Trout stockings by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) and the Guadalupe River Chapter of Trout Unlimited (GRTU) take place each year from November through March. In a typical year, well over 25,000 trout are stocked in the tailrace, ranging in size from 8 to 22 inches in length.

At other times of the year, this portion of the river is home to several species of bass (largemouth, smallmouth, spotted, and Guadalupe), sunfish, catfish, and other game fish. There are even schools of large striped bass that arrived in the river thanks to the flood of 2002. The Guadalupe’s clean, cool waters make it a pleasant place for the fish and those who fish for them. In order to fish on the river you will need a valid fishing license with a fresh water fishing stamp, unless exempt. Fishing license exemptions can be found in the current TPWD Outdoor Annual. Much of the fishing activity in the

Guadalupe River below Canyon Lake, especially during the winter months, is for raiow and brown trout. There is a special regulation for these species in a portion of the river (check the TPWD annual for details). This regulation is intended to provide a high quality catch-and-release trout fishery. In this section of the river only one trout per day over 18 inches may be harvested, and it must be caught on an artificial lure. Outside this area, from Canyon Lake dam downstream to the eastern most bridge on Highway 306, and from the second bridge crossing on River Road downstream, there is no minimum length limit for trout and the daily bag limit is 5. In these areas, trout may be harvested regardless of the bait type used.

When planning a trip, consult the TPWD at www.tpwd.state.tx.us, TPWD publishes trout stocking dates in late October.

Guadalupe River Tubing

The Guadalupe River is the most popular river in Texas for water recreation due to its scenic beauty, cold clear water and proximity to large metropolitan areas.

Among the favorite sections for tubing or “toobing” is what is known as the “Horseshoe” or “Tube Loop”. The starting point for this section is the western bridge on FM 306 and its end is the east bridge of FM 306, although most tubers continue floating downstream to the 4th Crossing Bridge on River Road or beyond, depending on water flow. Release rates are controlled flows from Canyon Dam and can range from a leisurely float to an exciting run through several rapids. Always check with a reputable outfitter for current flows and use caution anytime you are on the water by

For groups of ten or more, special tours may be scheduled.

Lodging in Canyon Lake www.canyonlakechamber.com A visit to “The Jewel of the Hill Country,” as Canyon Lake is called, and to the nearby Guadalupe River on a day trip is most enjoyable, but a longer visit is even better, maybe even irresistible. And for overnight visits there are plenty of places to stay to round out the enjoyment of your visit. All kinds of lodging possibilities are available, from the luxurious to the rustic – bed and breakfasts, lodges, cabins, RV parks, campgrounds, condos, and home vacation rentals.

Some are near the lake and some near the river, so you can be close to where you enjoy your favorite water sport activities.

Trails of Canyon Lake Canyon Lake is managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers which maintains five designated trails with a variety of uses and levels of difficulty. Designed for recreational use, these trails are well-maintained. Please check for specific difficulty of a train before attempting it.

Also, these trails can be pretty tough paddling in winds greater than 20 mph. Much of the bottom is
