Goodfellow Graduation Weekend

A relaxed plan for families in town for a graduation at Goodfellow AFB: ceremony first, then the best of San Angelo with your graduate.

The plan

  1. Arrival day

    Sort out your base visitor pass

    If the ceremony is on base, visitors 16 and older need a visitor's pass. The Visitor Control Center is next to the South Gate. Do this early.
