And it was on this date in 1962 that President John F. Kennedy addressed the nation and announced a naval quarantine of Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis — one of the tensest moments of the Cold War.

According to the Boerne Star, more than 2,100 Kendall County voters made their way to the polls on Monday to cast their ballots on the first day of early voting which is already more than 5% of registered voters. There is only one local race on the ballot which is the Justice of the Peace in Precinct 1 but it’s the state races that voters excited with over 19 million registered voters, a record for Texas. 

 

A software error has caused a problem with Texas Registration logs however, causing voters who were attempting to update their records to enter an extra address validation. This led to many updated records incomplete and missing the address all together. This latest issue arises only days after Texas election officials said they cleared an earlier voter registration backlog, and was caused by a software update for the Texas Department of Public Safety-as of now more than 500,000 registration since last October have been impacted. 

 

The Kendall County Sheriff’s Office is warning local meat markets and businesses about a scam involving large phone orders. Investigators say a man calling himself “Brian” places large meat orders, pays a deposit with a fraudulent credit card, then picks up the order before the business discovers the payment is invalid. Businesses are being urged to verify large phone orders and credit card payments before releasing merchandise. Anyone with information should contact the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office at 830-249-9721.

 

Tomorrow night may be the biggest football game of the season so far for the Champion Chargers. Champion and Smithson Valley are both 7-and-0 heading into Friday night’s showdown at Ranger Stadium.  We will be carrying that game right here on Boerne Radio. Kickoff is at 7 o’clock but Fired Up Friday starts at 5.

And it’s Homecoming Week at Boerne High School. Tonight, the Greyhounds host their Fall Orchestra Concert, and tomorrow night the unbeaten football team welcomes Veterans Memorial for the annual Homecoming game. The Homecoming Barn Dance follows Saturday night.

And congratulations to the Boerne High Band and Color Guard, which earned Superior ratings at the Regional Marching Contest and advances to the Area round Saturday morning at D.W. Rutledge Stadium.

Boerne Radio News is delivered to you by The Boerne Star, sponsored by the Purple Heart Project, and by the Boerne Radio Birthday Club 

Here in Boerne we say Happy Birthday to Bobby Esparza, Brooke Lowrie, Chase Marlow, just saw her at 28 Songs, Dana Price, ReJeania Bollier over at Hairbenders Salon, and Rowena Zambrano.  If today is your birthday you share it with Christopher Lloyd who is 88, and TobyMac turns 62.

Let us know yours when you sign up for the Birthday Club at boerneradio.com. 

 

Go Greyhounds, Go Chargers, and Go Early Vote.

Headlines: 

Champion heads to Smithson Valley - will air live on Boerne Radio

Champion Boys Water Polo to play in state semis tomorrow

UIL votes on three specific things making headlines that affects upcoming academic years

Thursday October 22, 2026

Boerne Radio Sports is brought to you by The Boerne Star and protected by The Carlson Law Firm.

Make sure to tune in tomorrow to Boerne Radio as we will have the FOOTBALL GAME OF THE YEAR for Boerne ISD - Champion travels east to Smithson Valley High School. Just some trivia… while Smithson Valley has three-straight state title appearances and two-straight title wins, the last time they actually lost a game was September 4, 2025 when they played Brennan. Champion is off to their best season since 2010 when they also started 7-0. It can be done… The champion could defeat the Rangers, but it will take a lot. 5pm tomorrow gets us started for Fired Up Friday, and then pregame at 6:30. The Greyhounds take on Vets Memorial in their homecoming game… which will air in its entirety on Texas Sports Productions. 

Champion boys water polo will also play a big game tomorrow at 1:30. Against Clear Creek in San Antonio, they play in the state semifinals. If they win, they’ll play for a state title Saturday. 

Making headlines across the state in the UIL - their fall meeting took place Monday. Three big things were discussed and passed. In all sports starting in 2027, every high seed will have home field or court advantage in the opening round of the playoffs. Also on the docket, starting in 2028, a 35-second shot clock will be implemented for boys and girls basketball. Finally, girls flag football will be piloted in 2028. These are three big moves in advancing the sports formats and selections for Texas high schools. More info to come as we inch closer to those timelines.

It’s Wednesday October 21st. 

Born on this date in 1956 was the beloved Carrie Fisher, who graced the starry screen as Princess Leia in the original Star Wars trilogy. She was the daughter of 1950’s singer Eddie Fisher and Debbie Renyolds, the beautiful triple threat from Singin’ In The Rain. Other actresses who auditioned for Princess Leia include Jodi Foster, Cindy Williams, Glenn Close, and Farrah Fawcett. 

I’m Baron Wiley. 

 

Here’s a Buc-ees Update:  Today is the day a pre-construction meeting is scheduled for the long-planned travel center, which could clear the way for work to begin soon after.  Part of those plans include major road and drainage improvements tied to the I-10 site.

 

Boerne Radio history happened last night as we aired our first volleyball game as both the Champion Chargers and Boerne Greyhounds were tied for first place.  Champion beat the Greyhounds at home in 3 sets.  Senior Brielle Boothe has 20 kills while Brady Cooksey recorded 40 assists.  Champion is now 10-1 in district play and sits in first place alone with one match remaining.  A win over Alamo Heights on Friday would give the Chargers their first outright district title since 2019.

 

Boerne ISD is inviting residents age 65 and older to join the new Boerne Breakfast Club. Each session includes breakfast,a T-shirt,  a campus tour and a student-led activity designed to connect seniors with local schools. Participation is free for eligible residents and business owners within Boerne ISD boundaries, but each participant may attend only one session per school year.  The next session is October 28th at Voss Middle School and the Ag Barn.  
We have a direct link to register in the news blog at boerneradio.com.

In 9 days Morningside at Menger Springs will cut the ribbon on their new neighborhood Terrace Homes. This will add 74 independent living residences to Morningside at Menger Springs, which sits on 42 acres alongside Menger Creek.

 

Outdoor burning was temporarily blocked this weekend due to wind conditions, but a fire erupted this week after burning was reinstated. Emergency crews and officers from the Kendall County Office of Emergency Management responded to a brush fire at Cibolo Ridge Trail yesterday afternoon. The fire was contained, preventing any danger to the public. If you plan on burning, make sure to follow the law to help keep Kendall County safe. 

 

Boerne Radio News is delivered to you by The Boerne Star, sponsored by the Purple Heart Project, and by the Boerne Radio Birthday Club 

Here in Boerne, we say Happy Birthday to Chris Borgman, Mitch Kersh, my cousin Rahlene Luna, and Wade Anglin.  If today is your birthday you share it with Judge Judy who is 84, Keith Green was born on this date in 1953, and Rich Mullins was born in 1955,

Champion vs Boerne in final volleyball district meeting

Little League coaches to join Boerne Radio Coaches Show for first sit-down interview since World Series 

OKC gets revenge on the Spurs in first meeting since WCF

Wednesday October 21, 2026

Boerne Radio Sports is brought to you by The Boerne Star and protected by The Carlson Law Firm.

Last night… history made on Boerne Radio and for Boerne ISD as we broadcasted our first volleyball game here on 103.9FM. Here’s something to ponder… between Boerne, Champion, and Alamo Heights who are the top three in the district, every home team has won the matches they’ve played against the other two… if the trend was to continue, Champion would win. Chargers claim the first set, then the second easily… The Greyhounds wouldn’t take the lead until the third set. But they did cut it close, and with a match point for Champion, here’s the final sequence…

Audio: final sequence

Champion sweeps, goes 10-1 in district, and for the moment has control of the district. One more game awaits the Greyhounds and Chargers, respectively. 

And a quick special thank you to the Greyhound Athletic Booster Club for sponsoring our coverage… and to Coaches Staci Lawrence of Boerne and Kelly McDaniel of Boerne Champion…. And of course, Boerne ISD Athletic Director Stan Leech. 

Tonight on the Boerne Radio Coaches Show… we welcome the coaches of the 2026 Boerne Little League team as they have their first sit-down interview since their return from Williamsport. Listen tonight at 6pm, right before ‘Retro Rewind with Chef Mark’, here on Boerne Radio, the free Boerne Radio app, or at BoerneRadio.com. 

Game one of 82 this season for the Spurs against OKC didn’t go San Antonio’s way. The last time these two faced off it was to advance to the NBA Finals… and we all remember what happened. OKC gets revenge, 116-104. Stephon Castle led the way for the Spurs with 24 points and 7 rebounds.

Last night&hellip; history made on Boerne Radio and for Boerne ISD as we broadcasted our first volleyball game here on 103.9FM. Here&rsquo;s something to ponder&hellip; between Boerne, Champion, and Alamo Heights who are the top three in the district, every home team has won the matches they&rsquo;ve played against the other two&hellip; if the trend was to continue, Champion would win. Chargers claim the first set, then the second easily&hellip; The Greyhounds wouldn&rsquo;t take the lead until the third set. But they did cut it close, and with a match point for Champion, here&rsquo;s the final sequence&hellip;
Audio: final sequence
Champion sweeps, goes 10-1 in district, and for the moment has control of the district. One more game awaits the Greyhounds and Chargers, respectively.&nbsp;
And a quick special thank you to the Greyhound Athletic Booster Club for sponsoring our coverage&hellip; and to Coaches Staci Lawrence of Boerne and Kelly McDaniel of Boerne Champion&hellip;. And of course, Boerne ISD Athletic Director Stan Leech.&nbsp;
Tonight on the Boerne Radio Coaches Show&hellip; we welcome the coaches of the 2026 Boerne Little League team as they have their first sit-down interview since their return from Williamsport. Listen tonight at 6pm, right before &lsquo;Retro Rewind with Chef Mark&rsquo;, here on Boerne Radio, the free Boerne Radio app, or at <a href="http://boerneradio.com/">BoerneRadio.com</a>.&nbsp;
Game one of 82 this season for the Spurs against OKC didn&rsquo;t go San Antonio&rsquo;s way. The last time these two faced off it was to advance to the NBA Finals&hellip; and we all remember what happened. OKC gets revenge, 116-104. Stephon Castle led the way for the Spurs with 24 points and 7 rebounds.&nbsp;

It’s Tuesday October 20th. 

And on this date in 1962 the number 1 song Sherry by The Four Seasons was knocked off by The Monster Mash by Bobby “Boris” Picket…which by the way it was graveyard smash.  And also born on this date in 1950 was the late great Tom Petty.

I’m Baron Wiley. 

 

A historic Boerne building is officially a school once again.

Crestmont Christian Preparatory School celebrates the grand opening of its new campus today at 402 East Blanco Road — a building constructed in 1910 that originally served as Boerne’s high school before later becoming Boerne City Hall.

Here’s the Crestmont Chairman of the Board - Laura Lynn  

Audio: 

Crestmont moved from its previous campus at First Baptist Church of Boerne in their Family Life Building which will now get a chance to be remodelled after serving as classrooms.

The private Christian school serves students from kindergarten through 12th grade and operates under a University-Model approach that combines classroom instruction with parent-supported learning at home.

Programming alert, a historic first for Boerne Radio - starting at 6:30 is the first serve for the Greyhound and Champion volleyball game from the Champion Gym.  The pregame show starts at 6:15 with Esteban Serrano with the call, and its happening thanks to the Boerne Greyhound Booster Club!  Playing tonight for Champion is Hannah Perez Class of 2028 and has already committed to playing beach volleyball at Arizona.

Boerne ISD’s Board of Trustees also meets tonight. The regular board meeting begins at 6:30 at the district’s Central Office on Johns Road.

Middle school students also have football tonight, with Boerne Middle School North and Middle School South both in action.

And early voting continues today for the November 3rd election.

The Herff Farm had plenty of help over the weekend at the Nest Nature School and in the teaching garden. Volunteers from the Brandeis High School DECA Business Club helped break up the soil in the garden, while the Bass Club of Champion did some much needed mulching. Thanks to the 30 students who gave up their Saturday to help our friends at Herff. 

 

The Boerne Chamber of Commerce has several fun ribbon cuttings coming up this week-Aptive Index has their celebration today at 11:30, and Missick Cellars is hosting their grand opening at 1:30.

Vans and the Man Ep. 2: Comedy, Beatles Memories, Billie Eilish & the Rise of Texas Twang

In Episode102 of Vans and the Man, Baron Wiley and his daughter Vans Wiley talk about their shared love of music and comedy, including Vans’ Second City sketch-writing class in Chicago and influences like Amy Poehler and Tina Fey. They discuss Amy Poehler’s intimate interview with Paul McCartney, Conan O’Brien’s early McCartney interview, and Vans’ “unconsensual” Beatles knowledge from childhood, including “Yellow Submarine” and changing formats from records to streaming.

They debate who today matches McCartney’s iconic status, highlighting Billie Eilish, Harry Styles, and Chappell Roan, plus the role of Finneas in Billie’s sound. The conversation shifts to concert costs, festivals in Chicago, streaming economics, and a “Young Twang” playlist tracking the growing popularity of Texas/Southern culture, with artists like Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Kacey Musgraves, Miranda Lambert, and Ray Wylie Hubbard’s “Snake Farm” story involving Ringo Starr.

Boerne Radio Artist Interviews with Baron Wiley

Before KBRN AKA Boerne Radio, KTXD launched in Boerne in the late 1940s.  The story of the first Department of Public Safety radio station right after this.

Kendall County Roofing

Back in 1938, Kendall County placed its trust in a man named Sid Edge, electing him sheriff. And not just once — five times in a row. For a decade, he wore the badge, kept the peace, and earned the respect of his neighbors.

Then in 1948, his watch ended suddenly. After an altercation with a prisoner, Shasn’t rested at all.

It’s still alive — in service, in education, and in the next generation of Boerne.

Sheriff Edge suffered a fatal heart attack. He was just 59 years old.

The county still needed a sheriff. And so the Commissioners Court turned to his son — William B. Edge — appointing him to finish the job his father had started.

One of Bill Edge’s very first acts was to ask for something new… something modern. Two-way radios. Installed right into the sheriff’s cars.

And just one month earlier, Bill Edge had stood at a podium in Boerne, speaking at the dedication of a brand-new Department of Public Safety radio station — KTXD.

A station dedicated to his father's memory.

Before KBRN AKA Boerne Radio, KTXD launched in Boerne in the late 1940s.&nbsp; The story of the first Department of Public Safety radio station right after this.
Kendall County Roofing
Back in 1938, Kendall County placed its trust in a man named Sid Edge, electing him sheriff. And not just once &mdash; five times in a row. For a decade, he wore the badge, kept the peace, and earned the respect of his neighbors.
Then in 1948, his watch ended suddenly. After an altercation with a prisoner, Shasn&rsquo;t rested at all.
It&rsquo;s still alive &mdash; in service, in education, and in the next generation of Boerne.
Sheriff Edge suffered a fatal heart attack. He was just 59 years old.
The county still needed a sheriff. And so the Commissioners Court turned to his son &mdash; William B. Edge &mdash; appointing him to finish the job his father had started.
One of Bill Edge&rsquo;s very first acts was to ask for something new&hellip; something modern. Two-way radios. Installed right into the sheriff&rsquo;s cars.
And just one month earlier, Bill Edge had stood at a podium in Boerne, speaking at the dedication of a brand-new Department of Public Safety radio station &mdash; KTXD.
A station dedicated to his father's memory.
A station Sheriff Sidney Edge had worked on to bring to Boerne.

In 2024, Boerne ISD repurposed an Admin and storage building at the corner of Main and Johns Road.  That building is the home of The Boerne Academy and is officially called The George C. and Bedelia Mitchell Learning Center.   The story of it’s name sakes right after this…

Kendall County Roofing

George C. and Bedelia Mitchell were the owners of Mitchell Cleaners on Plant Street and their love for Boerne and Country ran deep.  George and Be delia married in September of 1942,  and a month later George was in the European theatre with the United States Navy in World War II. When he came home, George kept serving.  In 1969 George was the first President of The Boerne Crusaders Club that provided scholarships and mentored students.  It also tackled community projects like building a new gazebo in Main Plaza. George Mitchell earned the 1973 Citizen of the  Year Award by the Lions Club.  Bedelia was a force of her own with the nickname Mrs P.T.A.  She worked at Curington Elementary for 12 years and gave private Spanish lessons.  In 1971 The State of Texas awarded her the Tops of Texas Award for her volunteer and civic service in Boerne.  Today the Mitchells rest in Boerne Cemetery but their legacy hasn’t rested at all.

It’s still alive — in service, in education, and in the next generation of Boerne.

Boerne White Sox

As Boerne’s Little League Team made its historic World Series run in 2024, baseball has deep roots in Boerne.  The story of The Boerne White Sox right after this.

On Johns Road heading west, just after you cross Cibolo Creek, look on the right for the stadium lights of Bower Field, where the ghosts of the Boerne White Sox last played.    Other home fields were on Saunders and James Street near the Methodist Church, then on North Main where the lap track is behind the Mitchell Center…there was a field on the Kendall County Fair Grounds, and the “Ice Plant Field” on Plant Street…which is why it’s called Plant Street…that’s where they made ice.

Baseball came to Boerne around 1900, and the first picture of a White Sox Team is from 1912. Boerne White Sox players’ names you might recognize include Fabra, Ebensberger, Bergmann, and one you might not remember…Charlie English from the 1940’s who went on to play pro-ball with the St. Louis Cardinals.

In 1862, when Kendall County was brand new, its people chose a young man — just 28 years old — to wear the star.  The story of Kendall County’s first Sheriff…John William Sansom right after this.

Sponsor:  Kendall County Roofing 

John William Sansom wasn’t just any lawman. Born in Alabama, raised in Texas, he’d already seen his share of frontier fights. He was a scout, a soldier, a man who could track through cedar and rock and not lose his way. And when the Civil War broke out, he was opposed to leaving the Union but stayed loyal to Texas.  Sansom traveled to Austin and met with Governor Sam Houston to offer his services.  Houston gave him a Colt revolver instead.

As sheriff, he rode against rustlers and bandits. Later, as a Texas Ranger captain, he faced far greater dangers — Comanche raids, border outlaws, and even the infamous Nueces Massacre, where neighbors turned on neighbors in a time of bitter division.

John William Sansom survived it all. He kept the peace when there was precious little of it. And he lived until 1920 to the age of 86 — and rests next to his wife Victoria in Mission Burial Park South in San Antonio.

The Live Oak Shopping Center, located on North Main at School Street, has had numerous businesses throughout the years…The Dollar Tree is one of the latest…but another 5 and Dime Varity Store located there named Winn’s had a Boerne connection.  The story of Mr. Murray Arvin Winn Jr. right after this.

At their peak, 106 of Winn’s stores dotted Texas and surrounding states—and then Walmart came to town.

Murray Arvin Winn, Jr. graduated from St. Mary’s University in 1935 with an accounting degree to help run the family business. After selling the stores in the 1950s, Murray saw something few others could see—pastures northeast of San Antonio… that he transformed into a brand-new community. He called it Windcrest.

And when it was time to retire… he and his beloved wife Barbee chose the Hill Country—settling right here in Boerne, worshipping at First United Methodist Church.

In the charming Hill Country town of Comfort, Texas… stands a grand limestone building that has welcomed travelers for nearly a century and a half.

Today, it’s known as Hotel Giles—named after famed San Antonio architect Alfred Giles, who designed it in 1880… at just 27 years old.  The story of Giles in Comfort…right after this.

www.KendallCountyRoofing.com 

Originally, The Giles was the Ingenhuett Hotel, commissioned by local pioneers Peter Ingenhuett and Marie Karger. Back then, stagecoaches rolled through town, and weary guests found rest in its dog-run layout, stone fireplace, and copper roof.

As Comfort grew, so did the hotel. Giles returned in 1894 to add elegant arches and Gothic charm. It was later renamed the Faust Hotel in 1909… but after World War II, as motels took over and German heritage faced prejudice, the old hotel closed its doors.

Then came the rescue.

In 1985, Dr. Bob and Diane Potter restored the fading landmark and earned it Texas Historical Landmark status.

The first two-room schoolhouse in Boerne opened in 1874 and served all grades. 

In 1909, they dreamed bigger — opening the doors to the first real high school in Boerne on East Blanco. The story of Boerne High…right after this.

Before it was City Hall, Boerne High School opened in 1910 when students rode in on horseback, learned by lantern light, and graduated with calloused hands and big ambitions.

In 1951, the school moved to a larger campus on Johns Road, and by 1971, Boerne High School as we know it today was born.

Home of the Greyhounds…
 Where championships were won, futures were formed, and Boerne pride was passed from one class to the next.

And though the buildings have changed, the spirit never has.

Because in Boerne, education isn’t just about books.

It’s about roots.

At the corner of Main Street and Rosewood is the home of Texas Treasures Fine Art Gallery.  But back in the 80’s…the 1880’s…Mr. William Kuhlmann opened Kuhlmann’s Apothecary…one of the first drug stores in Boerne.

More on this historic Boerne corner…right after this.

William Kuhlmann was a druggist by trade, and built his home on the hill behind the old high school on Blanco Road known as the Kuhlmann-King House.

His drugstore was purchased by William J. Wilke shortly after 1900.  Willie was the son of a Berghiem farmer, and earned his high school diploma by correspondence after finishing the 7th grade at the one-teacher Bergheim school.

He then graduated from pharmacy school at the University of Maryland.  In 1909, William Wilke was to become Boerne’s first Mayor.

In 1885 William Kuhlmann and his bride Marie immigrated from Germany to Boerne for a better life.  He built that home, and the building next door for their kitchen and washroom.

Fred Dodge worked as a lawman and as an undercover agent for Wells Fargo in California, Nevada, and Arizona - protecting stagecoaches and solving train holdups.

He became a constable in Tombstone, Arizona, where he befriended the legendary Wyatt Earp.  In fact, Dodge’s diaries were the basis for the book The Life and Times of Wyatt Earp, and they also documented his encounters with the Doolin and Dalton Gangs.   In 1906, Dodge came to Leon Springs on vacation and fell in love with the Texas Hill Country.  He purchased 2000 acres and named it  Dodge Ranch.  Dodge died in 1938 at the age of 84 and is buried in the Boerne Cemetery.
