Boerne Radio Sports - Monday, December 29, 2025

Boerne Radio News is delivered to you by the Boerne Star.

It’s Wednesday, December 31st- the last day of 2025. Happy New Year's Eve…

Some Boerne Radio musical birthdays include Andy Summers - guitarist for the Police turns 83, and born on this date in 1948 LaDonna Gaines better known as Donna Summer, and another late great: Henry John Deutschendorf born in 1943 - you knew him as Country Boy John Denver.  And one more right here in Boerne - happy birthday to Cecilia Bronaugh.  

I’m Baron Wiley. 

The Boerne Police and Fire Department want to remind you to celebrate responsibly tonight. Do not drink and drive, have a designated driver or a rideshare ready.  

Never light fireworks under the influence of alcohol.  Another reminder that fireworks are off limits in Boerne on top of the illegal fireworks on the list, drench your spent fireworks in water before going to bed, and do you know what the number 1 cause of vehicle fires at this time last year?  It was people storing unused or spent fireworks in their car!  

Besides their big party tonight, Tapatio Springs is hosting a Polar Plunge on Friday.  Show up to the Double L Pool at the resort between 10 and 1pm, and come dressed in you bold and creative outfit as there are prizes for the best costumes.

If one of your resolutions this year is to volunteer more, here’s an idea.  Triple H Equitherapy is hosting a volunteer training on January 3rd. The program supports children and adults with physical and cognitive challenges, as well as veterans and at-risk youth, as they work toward achieving their fullest potential through a connection with horses.  No previous experience is necessary; call 830-510-9515 to sign up.

Boerne Radio News - Wednesday, December 31, 2025

Boerne Radio News is delivered to you by the Boerne Star.

And by Tapatio Springs Resort and their Ritz and Riches New Year's Eve Party tomorrow night!  Doors open at 6:30 - and the theme is a Roaring 20s Casino Night with Vegas Style Casino Tables…dinner buffet, live Music by the Dirty River Jazz Band….  And there are 2 ticket levels available - $120 gets you in that includes dinner…and $195 bumps you up to open bar status.  And the best idea is cash out, get your prizes, kiss at midnight, watch the fireworks, and then check into your Tapatio Springs Resort room…ask for the Stay and Celebrate Package when you get your tickets and book your room at tapatiosprings.com.

It’s Tuesday, December 30th. 

And born on the same date are two guys from the same band…The Monkees.

Michael Nesmith was born in 1942 - and Davy Jones was born in 1945.  Michael Nesmith was born in Houston, but has a San Antonio connection in that he went through Lackland, and stayed in San Antonio after his discharge.  He went to San Antonio College and even won the SAC Talent Award singing folk songs.  In fact there’s a street named after him in Leon Valley.

Also sharing this Birthday date are some Boerne rock stars…Jenny Forks Ackel of JForksDesigns.com right here in Boerne, Tim Clarke a proud member of the Hill Country Fossil Club, and Taylor Chang - a great supporter of Kendall County Kids!

I’m Baron Wiley, 

Boerne Utilities Director Mike Mann is set to retire in the new year after 25 years of leadership. In that time, Boerne has grown from 5,000 to 25,000, which has required Mann to expand the infrastructure into newly developed areas. Mike says the accomplishment he’s most proud of during his time with the City of Boerne has been the addition of the reclaimed water system, as well as their consistent and reliable service. In retirement, he hopes to enjoy downtime, learn new skills and restore his 1953 GMC Pickup. 

For our friends in Fair Oaks Ranch, crews will be performing preventative maintenance on the HALT System on Rolling Acres Trail at Post Oak Creek until 4 today. Before then, drivers should expect delays as crews work on and test the system, so try to avoid the area if possible. 

2026 is just a couple days away, and the concert calendar is the strongest its been in years.  Just in January, Morrissey is at the Boeing Center, Ray Wylie Hubbard is in New Braunfels, and Parker McCollum is at the Frost Bank Center.  Looking ahead to February Hank Williams Jr. is at the Rodeo, and Robert Earl Keen also at the Frost Bank Center, and in March…Both Heart and Robert Plant are at the Majestic, ZZ Top is there in April, and this summer in the Alamodome ACDC, Guns and Roses, Iron Maiden, and Megadeath. And don’t forget Rush in September at the Frost Bank Center. 

It makes us proud that we play every one of these artists on Boerne Radio…except Iron Maiden and Megadeath…and not a whole lot of Guns and Roses…and we could probably play more Rush…so forget what I just said.

It’s Monday December 29th. 

 

On this date in 1845, Texas entered the Union as the 28th State and the only state to enter by treaty. Before that Texas had 4 presidents - Sam Houston, Mirabeau Lamar, Sam Houston again, and finally Anson Jones.  The first Governor of Texas was James Henderson.

 

And checking the Boerne Radio birthday Calendar, Happy birthday to Janine Smithies - she’s an executive Pastor at Cibolo Creek Community Church, also to Hailey Davis, Josh Dixon, and Morgen Bernhard.  If you have a birthday coming up, let us know when you take our music survey at boerneradio.com!

 

And New Years Day is this Thursday so the usual places will be closed with another quick reminder about garbage pick up - if your day is Thursday it’ll be on Friday, if your day is Friday then it moves to Saturday.  By now you should have received your official new trash and recycling day notice starting the week of January 5th.  The city of Boerne reminds you to place your carts at least three feet apart and 3 feet away from any obstacles like trees, cars, or mailboxes.

 

In your weekend edition of the Boerne Star, you read the full story that the Kendall County Commissioner's Court voted to honor two law-enforcement personnel who gave their lives in the line of duty. Memorial Markers could be placed on I-10 East for Officer Russell “Rusty” Salazar and Deputy Carlos “Smiley” Ramirez if the project is approved by TxDOT.
