Headlines:  1836 Battle at San Jacinto Anniversary / Read Candidate Interviews in The Boerne Star / Listen to Candidate Interviews on Boerne Radio Podcast Page / Chamber Ribbon Cutting on Thursday For Restoration Solutions / HCPCC’s Annual Day of Prayer This Friday / May 1st is National Day of Prayer / Ambleside School Open House this Friday

 

It’s Monday April 21st…

 

It was on this date in 1836 that General Sam Houston and his men defeated the much larger Mexican Army in the battle of San Jacinto. The fight lasted only 18 minutes and was the final and decisive battle of the Texas Revolution. General Santa Anna was disguised as a common foot soldier and captured the following day . 

 

The Boerne Star interviewed candidates in the upcoming May election, including current incumbents Mayor Frank Richie and Councilwoman Sharon Wright. Running against Richie is former city employee Laura Haning, and in a rematch against Wright is Joe Bateman. One of the issues in the upcoming elections is increasing terms from 2 years to 3. Of the four, only Haning was opposed to the increase, stating that “Regular turnover encourages accountability and prevents complacency”. The candidates also spoke on traffic and congestion within Boerne and talked about the most important topic to them. 

 

Boerne Radio has also interviewed Councilwoman Sharon Wright and Joe Bateman in District 2 - both of those conversations are available now at boerneradio.com on our podcast page.

 

The Boerne Chamber of Commerce is closed today, but they’ll be back in action with a ribbon cutting on Thursday. The celebration is for Restoration Solutions by Elite and will take place in the Chamber Board room at 11:30. 

 

This Friday is Hill Country Pregnancy Care Center’s Annual Day of Prayer, and because of their growth with multiple locations, the nonprofit has decided to host the event virtually this year. If you wish to take part, we have a direct link in the Boerne Radio news blog. https://tinyurl.com/hcpccdayofprayer - and a quick reminder on May the 1st in the National Day of Prayer - and you can learn more at BoernePrays.org
