Pavilion History

The sports shade structure at Acme Park was named the Thelma Jackson Sports Pavilion through an ordinance passed by the San Antonio City Council on Sept. 8, 2005 at the request of former District 6Councilman Enrique Barrera and the support of Councilwoman Delicia Herrera.

Thelma Jackson was the first principal at E.T. Wrenn Junior High. She taught and coached girls' basketball, dance, physical education, cheerleading, pep squad and tennis. Her involvement in community activities included teaching dance free in her home. She was an active member of the St. James A.M.E. Church and winner of their Woman of the Year Award for community service. She served as a pageant consultant for the Miss Dignity Fiesta Pageant.
