Headlines:  Day 12 Winner Pulled TODAY! / Utility Pole hit on River Road / Tragic Accident at Excelled Montessori Plus School / Compadres Open For Breakfast on Xmas Eve

And by August House Fine Jewelry Boutique

It’s Friday December 20th. 

it’s Day 12 in our 12 Days of Christmas Contest! Someone today will win all 12 prizes from all 12 Sponsors!  Will it be you?  It won’t be you if you don’t head to BoerneRadio.com and register to win.  August House Fine Jewelry Boutique is providing the grand prize - and it’s a beautiful gold necklace with a diamond in the middle…plus a $500 gift card to August House in Leon Springs - but you also win the other 12 gifts from TTS Research, Sugar Sugar, Taylor’s Ace Hardware, DaVida Medical and Aesthetics, Sonora Bank, Nature’s Presence, Texas Heritage Bank, Wild Birds Unlimited, Tootie Pie, The Guild Collective, and Chilito’s Express…plus the bonus prize from The Jones Christmas Ranch.  Again sign up now at boerneradio.com.

There were two unfortunate car accidents yesterday in Boerne, with one ending in a fatality. The first occurred when a driver crashed into a utility pole between River Road and Cottonwood Avenue, causing the traffic lights to go out and up to 50 Boerne utility customers to lose power. River Road between Main and Esser was blocked off for a few hours but reopened just after noon.

The second crash occurred just after 4:15 at Excelled Montessori Plus School, resulting in the death of a teacher in her 20’s and at least 5 children hospitalized. Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar spoke in a media conference and described how the crash occurred while parents were picking up their kids from school yesterday. One of the moms accelerated, crashing into another vehicle, blowing through a fence that faced the playground, pinning the teacher and the children underneath. According to officials, another teacher was injured in the accident as well, and the driver could have a medical issue that explains the crash. Sheriff Salazar said it was unclear if charges would be filed at this time. 

Compadres and The Purple Heart in Boerne would like to invite everyone on Christmas Eve for some LONG AWAITED Breakfast starting at 8am with Chorizo and Think Cut Bacon.  Santa Claus will be there helping serve with the mission of collecting Holiday Throw Blankets for the  Kerrville VA, and if you do you could win some sweet and meaty prizes…Compadres will be open on Christmas Eve from 8 to 2pm.

Headlines:  Day 11 Prizes Valued Over $1500 / Promotions at Boerne ISD / Author Chef Denise at The Boerne Bookshop / Mental Progress In Boerne / Girl With Grit Gives Back

 

And by August House Fine Jewelry Boutique

 

It’s Thursday December 19th. 

 

The Day 10 winner of our 12 Days of Christmas goes to Darcy Seibert of Boerne Texas - she won 10 prizes - make that 11 with the bonus prize from the Jones Christmas Ranch!  We add a new one today from TTS Research - they’ve put together a goodie basket that’s valued at over $200 with things to do around Boerne - and TTS Research is doing amazing things when it comes to asthma and respiratory research right here in Boerne!  Register now to win all the prizes at boerneradio.com

 

The Boerne ISD Board of Trustees held their monthly meeting this week and here are some of the highlights. Michael Joannou is hopping from his role as Vice Principal at Van Raub Elementary to the brand new Principal at Curington. Brittney Walker was also promoted from Assistant Principal of Champion to the Academic Dean. Updates on the bond projects were given to the Board, as well as the official adoption of Option 2 for the 2025-2026 School year, which won 78% of the vote. Finally, the Annual Cookies, Cocoa and Toy Drive was a huge success with over 700 toys collected from that one event.

 

If you miss the taste and flavors only found at the Little Gretel Restaurant - Chef Denise is now an author of a new cookbook featuring all her famous recipes called The Aroma of Czech Cuisine.  You can get your copy now at the Boerne Bookshop, but if swing by this Saturday from 1 to 3, you can get her to sign your copy.  The book not only contains recipes but also some great history and stories.  

 

And if you missed the Wednesday edition of the Boerne Star, here are some of the top stories. As the mental health crisis continues to take hold of our community, especially our youth, public officials are stepping up to find solutions. In 2023, 209 crisis calls were made to Boerne PD and the Kendall County Sherriff’s Office, which is a 39% increase from 2020. To address this growth, both departments have hired and trained two designated mental health officers, and the Police Department is working on hiring a 3rd. The Department also hired Bryce Boddie, a licensed social worker and director of behavioral health at Hill Country Family services, to assist the mental health officers with clinical assessments. 

 

In this week Boerne Star they reported that the founder of Girl with Grit, Blythe Zemel, purchased an old ‘34 Chevy truck years ago that became the landmark for her nonprofit and 5 years ago, her paths crossed with student Payton Newman in her art class. Now, as Newman gets closer to his graduation, Blythe decided to do something remarkable. It turns out that Zemel had purchased the truck from Newman’s grandfather, Mel Lee Ellenwood, and in an act to honor him, returned the truck to Newman.  The truck now lives at the Agricultural Museum and Arts Center which is a great photo op this Christmas.
