It is Thursday October 10th

And as we get more information on Hurricane Milton, Boerne Radio strongly encourages you to donate $10, $100 or $1000 to Samaritan's Purse as they have boots on the ground in the Carolinas there in Billy Graham’s backyard helping the victims of Hurricane Helene - and it was on this date before they had names The Great Hurricane of 1780 killed 20-30,000 people in the Caribbean - Climate Change scientists of 1780 were not available for comment.

I know…that’s wrong…

The Boerne Fire Department has been awarded nearly $2 million from FEMA as part of the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) grant program.  This grant will be pivotal in expanding the department’s workforce as Boerne grows and prepares to open its second fire station.

The grant will allow the City to hire six additional full-time firefighters and move the department closer to meeting national staffing standards while enhancing 24-hour emergency coverage across our 200-square-mile service territory.

The end of an era occurred yesterday on Main Street with the demolition of the old Plaza Liquor Store where Doug Dugosh was known to tell his stories.  This broadcaster had the Divine opportunity to meet him on his afternoon walk about 4 years ago and hear some of history around Main Street.

And that’s why we love Boerne - and this is Boerne Radio.
