It’s Friday May 22nd.

Just a quick reminder today is the last day to early vote in the runoff elections.  Election day is next Tuesday.  And thanks to the results of a previous election, City Council has expanded the scope of the voter approved construction project on Adler Road, leading to a doubling of the design costs according to San Antonio Express News. Initially the project would have included a culvert added to a low water crossing and the addition of a turning lane for 1.6 million. Now the City is considering adding a round about, drainage and traffic operations. At this point, construction is expected to finish in 2028, with design costs at an estimated 3.3 million. 

And it’s Memorial Day weekend, which means City Offices will be closed on Monday. What will be open is something that never closes, tubing on the Horseshoe near Canyon Lake, which is expecting 130,000 visitors this weekend.  

Here in Boerne there’s the Memorial Day Concert in Main Plaza on Sunday at 7, The Boerne American Legion Captain Mark Tyler Voss #313 is hosting their annual Ceremony Monday morning at 10 at Veterans Plaza…speaking is Mrs. Marcy Voss, the mother of Capt. Mark Tyler Voss.  At 11 is the ceremony at the Boerne Cemetery host by the Boerne VFW Post 688.  And the Air Force Band of the West is performing at Champion High School with a free concert on Monday night.
