2026 Grandparent Brunch
Posted April 2, 2026
The San Antonio Academy Grandparents Council hosted a special Grandparents Brunch on Thursday, April 2, at the elegant Club Giraud in downtown San Antonio. The morning brought together 50 Academy grandparents for a time of connection and fellowship.
Guests enjoyed a thoughtful presentation by Leon McNeil, SAA's Upper School Outdoor Leadership Teacher, who shared insights into the program’s mission and the meaningful experiences it provides for students. The event offered a glimpse into how outdoor education shapes leadership, resilience, and character in SAA boys, while also celebrating the important role grandparents play in the lives of our students.
Thank you to Nel Belt and Lee Anne Hendry for organizing and sponsoring such a lovely event. SAA is deeply grateful for the love, support, and lasting impact grandparents bring to The Academy community.
