The annual Poteet Festival gives Poteet strawberry growers plenty of locations on the festival grounds to sell their crops. Along with selling delicious berries, the festival features non-stop live music from nationally known Country and Tejano performers and local bands. There are gunslingers, a carnival midway, and live rodeo performances that include Bull Riding, Bronc Riding, Barrel Racing, and Junior Events that offer cash prizes.
Take part in a dynamic experience as you learn about stars, planets, black holes, and distant galaxies at the Planetarium - The Scobee Education Center at San Antonio College. Every Friday night, the planetarium opens to the public, so they get a chance to stargaze and see digitally-created images of stars, planets, and galaxies fill the night sky. Housed atop the iconic blue Charles E. Cheever, Jr. Star Tower, the Scalan Observatory houses a 10-inch refractor telescope and features a 360-degree rotating dome and panel that opens 90 degrees, enabling stargazing in any direction.
