Holocaust Memorial Museum of San Antonio

The Holocaust Memorial Museum of San Antonio, a program of the Jewish Federation of San Antonio, is located in San Antonio, Texas, and has provided educational services since 1975. In 2000 the museum opened its doors to the public.The museum's mission is to make people aware of the dangers which prejudice, hatred and violence brought about during the Holocaust. It also endeavors to remind guests that these dangers are still relevant today. The museum promotes understanding, remembrance, and education with the goal that both students and the general population stay and become aware of the lesson of these tragic events. This lesson is that humankind must strive to live together in peace and harmony. A major commitment of the Holocaust Museum San Antonio is the educational program. This program comprises a teacher program, a student program, and an academic program. The teacher program encourages and helps teachers to incorporate the topic "Holocaust" into their classes. The museum's "Curriculum Trunks Program," which is available for teachers throughout the city, gives teachers of all grades multimedia tools such as videos, posters, CDs, CD-ROMs, maps, classroom sets of books, lessons plans, and plans for student activities so that classes are as informative as possible. Teachers may also receive training on the Holocaust. Training may be related to the curriculum trunks or they may be general workshops. The Holocaust Memorial Museum of San Antonio offers several opportunities for volunteers. Volunteers may work as docents or assist in the library and administrative offices.

Oak Hills Country Club

Oak Hills Country Club is a private golf club in the southern United States, located in San Antonio, Texas. Northwest of downtown, it was founded 103 years ago in 1921 as the "Alamo Country Club." Designed by renowned architect A.W. Tillinghast, the golf course opened for member play in 1922. Closed during the Great Depression, it reopened in 1946 as Oak Hills Country Club. Oak Hills has hosted a number of PGA Tour events. The inaugural Tour Championship in 1987 at Oak Hills was won by Tom Watson with a dramatic birdie on the 72nd hole; the 6-iron used for the approach shot hangs in the pro shop. The tour's Texas Open was held at the course twenty-three times between 1961–1994, and the AT&T Championship on the Champions Tour nine times (2002–2010). It also hosted the U.S. Junior Amateur Golf Championship in 2001.The course record at Oak Hills is 60, shot twice, once in 1992 by David Ogrin in the Texas Open pro-am with nines of 26–34, and Anthony Rodriguez in 2008 in a recreational but witnessed game. Oak Hills has had several touring pros as members and boasts one of the best golfing memberships in the country with it being typical for 30 or more members being scratch or better at any given time. Its golf course is known as an architectural gem and, as such, was a beloved stop for both PGA and Champions Tour players. It was consistently ranked as the #1 course in the San Antonio area for many years with its small greens and notoriously deep Tillinghast bunkers. Many players have publicly lamented the departure of professional golf from this venue.
