It’s Friday, May 15th. 

 

And back in 1962, President Kennedy proclaimed May 15 as National Peace Officers Memorial Day and it’s still National Police Week. If we don’t say it everyday, thank you to our Boerne Police Department, and our Kendall County Sheriff's Office.  We also remember our heroes in Law enforcement who gave the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty - Sheriff Edge in 1948,  Sheriff Kuebel in 1971, Trooper Kurt David Knapp in 2004,  Community Supervision Officer Russell Dean Salazar in 2019, and Deputy Carlos Ramirez in 2019.

 

You know how we’re always shocked when you hear the first day of school is in early August and we brag about not starting school until Labor Day…well the last day of school this year is next Thursday the 21st.  And for the seniors at Boerne High School senioritis was treated yesterday with Senior Field Day with the biggest bouncy houses ever and they tore it up….enjoy your last week Class of 2026 - and the first day of School for the 2026-2027 school year is June 31st… just kidding - August 11th. 

 

After recent rains, Boerne Officials want to assure you that the Cibolo Creek Dam in River Road Park is not cracking and remains structurally sound. However, drought conditions have not been relieved, and water levels are once again dropping. According to City Spokesperson Chris Shadrock, these drops could be due to ongoing drought conditions, changes in creek capacity after sediment removal and subsurface seepage occurring under portions of the dam.  Our next chance for rain is Monday and everyday next week thru Saturday.

 

New directors are taking their seats with the Boerne Kendall County Economic Development Corporation - the appointments were announced at their annual members luncheon at Tapatio Springs. The current board will include Dakota Durden with GRIT Co., Caleb Clark with Edward Jones, Tony Trevino with Vantage Bank Texas, Chuck Gregory with Terrracon and Phil Hunke of Hill Country Square.  At-large members are Charity Huber of BEC and Phillip Quintanilla of WS & P Insurance.
