It’s Thursday April 18th. 

And it was on this date in 1942 when Jimmy Doolittle’s Raiders flew to Japan with 16 B-25 bombers…America’s first response after the Pearl Harbor attack. The plan was to drop the bombs and bail out over China since they wouldn’t have enough fuel to fly back to the USS Hornet.  While little damage was done to Tokyo, it was a boost to the US morale.

I’m Baron Wiley. 



Well River Road Park had its official rededication ceremony yesterday morning, and hundreds of people joined Mayor Richie, City Management and the Parks and Rec department to cut the ribbon. After months of construction, the newly renovated park is now more sustainable and more accessible for our community. The Director of the Parks and Rec Department, Lizzette Jimenez, gave a shoutout to some local students who had a hand in the project as well:

City Communications Director Chris Shadrock encourages you for the next few months to stay on the dedicated walking spaces so that the new grass and vegetation can take root.



The Kendall County Animal Shelter has given an update on the rabies outbreak happening in our community. In the past couple months there have been 4 confirmed rabies cases near Coveney Ranch and Rusty Ln., with the most recent involving a fox bite in the 100 block of Cordillera Trace. The fox was tested and confirmed positive last week, and the victim is now undergoing treatment. The Kendall County Sheriff's Office urges everyone to remain vigilant, and to call animal control if you see an animal acting erratic.   That number is 830-537-3430 



Today Boerne Radio will be hanging out at Texas Heritage Bank for the monthly Boost Boerne Business networking event from 4-6 - its great networking, food and drinks, and great community spirit in boosting your business.  Clearview Bookkeeping will share some business wisdom, Justin McKenzie of Das Greenhaus will also share some ideas, and incredible door prizes like a $150 pair of earrings from August House Fine Jewelry just in time for mothers day.  Special thanks to Texas Heritage Bank, Pax Financial Groups Ron Zunker and Clearview Bookkeeping - all three businesses where Boerne Radio is a client.

We lost another one of our good friends and a huge part of our musical journey yesterday. Tom Foote, our one-time drummer and long-time road manager for around 48 years, suddenly passed away at his home after our rehearsal. 2024 is taking its toll on the Ace in the Hole group. We’re all heartbroken to say the least.

Boerne Radio News - May 1, 2024

It’s Tuesday April 30th. 

And today is Adopt a Shelter Pet Day.

Adoption of course is the goal but animal shelters also need volunteers to help the animals exercise, socialize, and share that wonderful feeling called love. Before showing up...check with the shelter first as some are still on an appointment basis only.  That includes Boerne Animal Control, and Heart of Texas SPCA at Fair Oaks Ranch. 

Also yesterday was Willie Nelson’s 91st, but he also claims April 30th as the Hill County Courthouse in Abbott Texas didn’t record his birth until the next day.

I’m Baron Wiley. 

There were three major accidents on I-10 yesterday, with two of them causing a closure of the Eastbound lanes from marker 522-524.  Later at about 3:45pm, eastbound I-10 was closed again, this time near John’s Road. The wrecks themselves involved multiple cars, Kendall County's finest were on the scene quickly, and the areas were cleared by 5:45. 

I understand Boerne Traffic Director Dusty Rhodes is also up by Johns Road right now with a new development.  Come in Dusty.

Thanks Dusty

And looking ahead to this weekend, the Boerne Fire Department on Main Street is hosting their 3rd annual Spring Open House. From 10 to 2 on Saturday they will be firing up hot dogs on the grill, giving live demonstrations and even giving tours of the trucks so bring the kids, and the kid in you.  

A couple months back The Boerne High School Marching band competed in the For Whom The Bell Tolls Competition. The Metallica themed event had some stiff competition, sad but true, but the Greyhounds tied for first with Malverne High School from New York State. And the day they thought would never come has come…the bell has indeed paid the toll…the $15000 check has come in this week for brand new band equipment.  Nothing else matters…and a great memory remains.  Bonus points for all the Boerne Radio Metalheads out there can tell me how many Metallica songs were referenced in this story.
