SAN ANTONIO – If you don’t have any plans on Friday, the San Antonio Zoo is offering discounted admission for Bexar County residents as part of Locals Day.
On April 24, which is the San Jacinto/Battle of Flowers holiday, all Bexar County residents can visit the zoo for $8. The zoo will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
