Parks and Recreation Board approves of Rec Hall name change

The San Marcos Parks and Recreation Board unanimously voted to approve the renaming of the City Recreation Hall to Pauline Espinosa Community Hall during its meeting last Thursday. 

The push to rename the hall came after the Council for the Indigenous and Tejano Community (CITC) nominated Pauline Espinosa. 

“I'm ecstatic about it, really, you know, for many reasons, one, because I feel like, you know, so much of the history of Mexican American community and the African American community here in San Marcos, has not been at the forefront,” said Bobbie Garza-Hernandez, co-founder of the CITC.
