Another summer has come and gone. And that can only mean one thing in eastern Pasco County, Florida, it is time to once again remind you that the 2015 San Antonio Rattlesnake Festival and Run , sponsored by the rotary Club of San Antonio, will take place on October 17th of 2015 from 9 AM to 5 PM. San Antonio, Florida is just to the north of Tampa and a few miles east of Interstate 75 in the hills of Pasco County on State Road 52. The festival takes place in the village park in the center of town. You cannot miss it!
