San Antonio Gears Up for Presidents Day Fun and Important Announcements!

Hey there, San Antonio! Are you ready for Presidents Day? This year, it falls on February 19, 2024, and while many will be taking a break to honor some of the most notable leaders in American history, there’s actually a lot happening in our city that day! So, grab your planner and let’s dive into what’s open, what’s closed, and some exciting community events that you won’t want to miss.

What’s Closed and What’s Open

As you plan out your day off, remember that most federal, state, county, and city offices will be closed as part of the observances. This means you can say goodbye to those pesky paperwork duties for a day! However, don’t worry! The municipal court, magistrate court, and the San Antonio Police Department detention center will remain open as usual, just in case you need them.

If you’re thinking about heading to the bank, keep in mind that financial institutions will also be closed for the federal holiday. Similarly, the U.S. Postal Service won’t be delivering regular mail, but Priority Mail Express will still make its rounds. Don’t forget, all retail locations of the USPS will be closed too, so plan accordingly!

School’s out for some! Certain San Antonio-area schools will also be closed for Presidents Day, so the kids can enjoy a long weekend. But if you need help or have an emergency, first responders, including police, firefighters, and emergency medical services, will be available as always by dialing 911.

Utilities and Garbage Pickup

As for utility services, both CPS Energy and SAWS will be functioning regularly. Should you face any issues, you can reach out to CPS Energy at 210-353-4357 or SAWS at 210-704-7297. Plus, curbside pickups for garbage, recycling, and brush recycling will continue as planned!

Oh, and don’t forget about those bulky and hazardous waste centers—yep, they’re open! It looks like you can keep everything nice and tidy without interruption.

Library Hours and Activities

Looking to get your read on? Unfortunately, all the San Antonio Public Library locations will be closed on Presidents Day for a staff training session. But worry not! The library’s book drops will still be operational, and outdoor Wi-Fi will be accessible in library parking lots. Make a mental note: regular operations at the library will resume on Tuesday, February 20, 2024.

Timothy the Hippo and A Special Day at the Zoo!

This year, Presidents Day will be particularly special, as Timothy the Hippo is set to announce his presidential campaign at the San Antonio Zoo! Talk about a fun family outing! In line with this exciting announcement, the zoo will also launch a merchandise line featuring awesome campaign items, with proceeds aimed at contributing to animal conservation efforts. On top of that, Bexar County residents can enjoy a discounted admission of just $8 for the zoo’s Locals Day celebration! What a fantastic way to spend the day!

Join the Fun!

So there you have it, San Antonio! Whether you’re staying in to relax or venturing out to see Timothy’s big announcement or checking out local events, there’s plenty to enjoy for Presidents Day. Don’t forget to mark your calendars and make some fabulous memories!
