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
- 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.
- Arrival evening
Dinner downtown by the river
Settle in with dinner downtown and an evening walk on the Concho River Walk.
- Graduation day
The ceremony at Goodfellow AFB
Arrive early. Your graduate's unit sets the time and place and tells you where to park.
- After the ceremony
Celebration lunch
Take your graduate out. SanAngeloFood.com can find a spot that is open and fits your group.
- Afternoon
Fort Concho National Historic Landmark
A great family stop with plenty of military history, a few minutes from downtown.

Trails, lake views and a chance to spot bison and longhorns before the drive home.
