It’s Friday, April 17th.

And born on this day in 1937 was Daffy Duck, who made his first appearance in Porky’s Duck Hunt. In the original episode, Daffy had a less pronounced lisp than what we know today, and looked a lot more like an actual duck. Mel Blanc voiced the character until 1989, a total of 52 years.

Boerne City Park was filled with around 300 homeschool students from across San Antonio and the Hill Country under the umbrella called Boerne Classical Conversations that hosted its annual Field Day. Kids took part in games and activities focused on teamwork and friendly competition. The Christ-centered program, founded in 2015, emphasizes parent-led education and community. Organizers say the event highlighted strong family involvement and a shared commitment to student growth.

The City of Boerne also gave an update yesterday on the progress being made on Northside Community Park. The basketball pavilion is now up, and stone column work is underway. Concrete foundations have been poured for 3 future restroom facilities, and crews are working on stormwater and low-impact development infrastructure to support the park long term. 

 

Boerne Radio is proud to partner with Cavender Chevrolet in support of the 33rd Annual Texas Corvette Association Open Car Show in Main Plaza - the fun starts with a meet and greet at 5:30 in the gazebo as a sea of cool cars roll into Boerne…about 450 this year.  It all benefits SJRC Texas - helping kids through St. Jude.  We’ll see you there.

 

Last week the Cibolo Center for Conservation raised funds in the name of protecting water. Their sponsors, Culligan and the 2 Birds Nerds, matched every single donation made to the organization. Yesterday they revealed that their goal was surpassed with a total of $60,109.34.
