Del Oro 2022

2022 marks the 20th-anniversary celebration of the Del Oro Awards for the San Antonio Chapter. A new category was introduced for the individual awards and, as the organization continued to recover from closures and delays from the pandemic of 2020 and 2021, the celebration was moved to September and held at the San Antonio Zoo. To see the program from the event, go here.
