KSAT 12 Sports and Christus Children’s shine spotlight on local senior student athlete.

In San Antonio, we are fortunate to witness the impactful contributions of many Hispanic individuals who continue to shape and inspire our community.

In the land of Cowboys and Indians, there is a concerted effort to bring growth to their shared neighborhood.

Harlandale-McCollum is a neighborhood rooted in rivalry and pride in the South Side. Generations of neighbors have asked, and answered, variations of the same question: Harlandale or McCollum? Indians or Cowboys? There’s a physical divide between the two sides of this neighborhood but also an effort to unite them, especially in times of need.

More than 30 years after they lined up across the field from each other in the Frontier Bowl, two former rivals talk about the 1989 classic. Joseph Farias was and still is a Harlandale Indian; Gabe Cisneros was and still is a McCollum Cowboy. They were from different sides of the McCollum-Harlandale neighborhood. Fate and football brought them together, along with a chance to sit and talk about those old glory days and the community they grew up in.

This episode of Know My Neighborhood looks into this special neighborhood where past and present come together with some fear about the future.

If you walk around McCollum High School, you'll see five different bookshelves with the sign Cowboys Read! The books filling those shelves are not library books. Instead. these new, current and exciting books are free to students.

Project Destiny aims to connect the younger generation with Destiny’s music while serving as a valuable network for these young individuals and their future endeavors.
