It’s Friday March 20th. 

And born on this date in 1937 was American Grammy-winning Hall of Fame country musician and actor Jerry Hubbard who you know better as Jerry Reed.  The big hits include East Bound and Down from Smokey And The Bandit, and She Got the Goldmine, I Got the Shaft.  Also happy 75th birthday to blues guitar legend and Austinite Jimmie Vaughan - brother of the late great Stevie Ray Vaughan.

And happy birthday to Mr. Matthew Penrod right here in Boerne.

The Boerne ISD Parent Teacher Organizations from Champion and Boerne High noticed there was no recognition for students who went above and beyond for service in the community, and so they created the Superintendent’s Volunteer Service Award. This year marks the first time this award has been given out, and recognizes volunteer hours completed in the 2025 calendar year. In total, 31 Boerne Highschool students served 4,629 hours. From now on, the award will be the new standard, and students will be able to proudly display a new medal celebrating this achievement in this year's graduation regalia.

If you need another reason to visit the Outdoor Family Fair tomorrow, the bookmobile will be parked in Main Plaza with giveaways and books to check out. The van has increased accessibility to education around the city, and eliminates the barrier of having to physically visit the library. You’ll be able to sign up for library cards, tour the vehicle and maybe win a prize. The van and the event will be in Main Plaza from 10 to 2. 

A national discount shopping chain is making its way to North Main Street this spring. Harbor Freight, the self-appointed "America's #1 tool store," announced this week that it will open a new Boerne location inside of a shopping center in the Northside. A filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation shows construction began in February and is slated to wrap on April 20th.
