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

And by Tapatio Springs Resort and their Ritz and Riches New Years Eve Party…

Make your reservations now for the biggest party in the Hill Country.  Doors open at 6:30 - and the theme is a Roaring 20s Casino Night with Vegas Style Casino Tables…live Music by the Dirty River Jazz Band…an incredible dinner buffet they are calling the Best of Chef Eric MacIntyre’s creations.  And there’s 2 ticket levels available - $120 gets you in that includes dinner…and $195 bumps you up to open bar status.  And the best way to do it is after the fireworks are over at midnight on Hole #18 - you 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 Monday December 22nd. 

 

It was on this date in 1882 that electric lights first graced the Christmas tree, rather than the traditional candles.  Like that’s not a fire hazard.   Edward H. Johnson was an associate of Thomas Edison, and was the Vice President of the Edison Electric Light Company. He brought home 80 red, white and blue electric light bulbs that he had wired together, but it would take 50 years for the trend to catch on entirely. However, it was possible to rent Christmas lights in the 1900’s for $12, which today would equate to $300.

 

Boerne Radio’s 12 Strays of Christmas has been a great success in our partnership with Boerne Animal Care Services…some families full of love just got bigger in time for Christmas… Jennifer Sullivan took home Brookie, Christie Lynn rescued Sheba, Brian Rodgers picked up Oreo, and Patrick Pattersonson has a new best friend named Sparky.  We’d like to also thank The Hill Country Animal League, and the Hill County Animal Emergency Hospital in helping us get the word out.

 

Boerne Animal Care Services is urging pet owners to ensure your animals are fully vaccinated against the virus known as Parvo…as they are seeing an uptick this season.  

This past Saturday marked the finale of the Kendall County Blue Santa Program for 2025. Because of the incredible generosity of the Boerne community, as well as more than 1,000 volunteer hours dedicated to the program, over 800 children were able to celebrate Christmas with presents under the tree. 

 

Thanks to VFW Post 688 for a little community cleanup yesterday in River Road Park and they didn’t do it alone thanks to Cub Scout Pack 18, who came to assist the veterans. 

The Boerne Education Foundation has done incredible work this year supporting our honorable school district. Within the last month, the BEF funded 112 Teacher Innovation Grants, giving $200,080 back to educators. Along with each check came a parade-like celebration for each teacher featuring students, music and plenty of cheer. 

 

Boerne Radio News is delivered to you by The Boerne Star and our 12 Days of Christmas Contest…congrats to Hannah Summers our Day 10 winner but it’s Day 11 that’s brought to you by Marco’s Pizza on River Road!  A $50 gift card today gets you enough $6.99 medium one topping pizzas for their Christmas promotion to feed the whole family and more. Today’s winner will also get 10 other prizes from our sponsors Tootie Pie, Singing Water Vineyards, Fair Oaks Emergency Room, The Tobin Center, Boerne Community Theatre, Liberty Capital Bank, Wild Birds Unlimited, My Urgent Care Clinic, Olde Town Plumbing, and Chilito’s Express plus that bonus prize from Crumbling Castle Lights in Comfort.  Tomorrow, we add the crown jewel from Borrego Fine Jewelry - a pair of diamond stud earrings!  Register now at BoerneRadio.com

Headlines: Smithson Valley wins state, again / 2026 football season way-to-early outlook / Spurs jump to 2nd in the West / A&M loses in football, wins title in Volleyball / Texas Tech to play Oregon in Orange Bowl Jan. 1

Monday 12/22

Boerne Radio Sports!

Well to begin, while Boerne High and Champion didn’t make it to state, the football title games took place over the weekend. District rival for Champion Smithson Valley took it home for the 2nd-straight year. And yes, we send our congratulations to a deserving Rangers team and coach in Larry Hill… but now a look into the future: While both teams are losing some senior talent, the exciting part about next season is what up and coming JV and underclassmen players are on the rise. Coaches Sawyer and Ellis are for sure going to be busy through the spring seasons to prepare for next year. We are 222 days away from August 1 of 2026, likely when teams will start reporting for practices. And we. Can. Not. Wait.

What a time to be a fan of the San Antonio Spurs! They now jump to 2nd in the West after a win Friday over Atlanta, and last night over Washington. The Spurs on 21-7, just behind the Thunder who are 25-3. Fun fact: these two teams go to battle tomorrow night at the Frost Bank Center, and then Thursday as well. Tip off for tomorrow is at 7.

And boy! Texas A&M football just couldn’t seem to find their groove. Neither could Miami, and it was all defense and a made field goal each. However, Miami in late stages found the endzone… game ends on a Miami interception, and that’s all she wrote. 10-3 Miami wins, and A&M is out of the playoffs. The only surviving team from the Lone Star State is Texas Tech who is enjoying a bye week, and the holidays as well. Oregon won their game, and the two teams won’t meet in the Orange Bowl until New Year’s Day at 11. Texas A&M Volleyball however, for the first time in school history, are national champions, and it wasn’t even close. Aggies swept the frames, and took the game 3 sets to none. Aggie fans still have a lot to be proud of with a historic season of athletics.
