I am a shower and a shave after ball at Lockwood Then car show at Rosedale…conjunto, music so good. I am murals painted on buildings, making museums reflecting community, I am the stock girl at the Solo Serve, folding tiny socks, I am fathers teaching sons manners to empower Memories in the making, like prom dates at the Tower I am MLK Day at Pittman-Sullivan Park. I am a Mel Waiters song about lost love and broken hearts. I am the hand that gives you glitter, frosty raspas in the street Mango from chamoy, oh, what a treat. I am a sunlit Taste of New Orleans, a moonlit dance at NIOSA, I am Pride at Crocket Park raising rainbows of awareness I am chords of different colors, woven into a tapestry of community I am S.A., San Anto, San Antonio I am you We are Community . . . First. Community First 2021 Advertising Campaign themed, 'One Community, One Local Plan', is an effort to celebrate, honor and uplift all the positive attributes of San Antonio and the people that make our community first while highlighting the benefits and services Community First Health Plans has to offer to its members.
