IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
Good morning, Boerne. This is The Boerne Life, the newsletter that has too many events to count for Father’s Day weekend. Actually we can count - it’s 14.
But enough of all that - let’s jump right in. Happy Father’s Day, dads!
— Chris
FRIDAYS ARE FOR LUNCH SPECIALS AT 28 SONGS
$7.95 Lunch Options? Yes, Please!
If you’re looking for a great lunch spot in Boerne, 28 Songs Brewhouse + Kitchen should be on your short list. This veteran-owned brewpub is known for having the most in-house brewed beers of any brewery in the area, but the food is good too—especially if you’re stopping by for lunch.
Tuesday - Friday, they are offering a whole slate of $7.95 specials. I’ve had the burger, the wrap, the chicken tenders, the wings, the chili cheese dog, the fried pickles… almost all of it! (In my line of work, you have to work out a lot, or you’re in real trouble)
Great lunch. Pair it with a soda or get crazy on a Friday and have a lunch beer! 😱
Check out the specials above - they’re a really great deal!

Let’s be real — with all the rain Boerne’s been getting, keeping your pool clean and your chemicals balanced is no small feat. From surprise downpours to algae flare-ups, it doesn’t take long before things start looking a little... ducky. (DAD JOKE)
Outer Space Pools keeps local pools clean, clear, and ready for splash season with regular service you can count on. Whether you're prepping for summer parties or just trying to keep the kids from cannonballing into a green lagoon, they’ve got you covered. 💦☀️

FIND MORE THINGS TO DO THIS WEEKEND
There’s no way we can fit it ALL on the list here. But, good news is we have a handy guide on our site that shows you EVERYTHING going on. You can check that out here.
Looking for hands-on, brain-building fun for the kids this summer? The Science Mill in Johnson City is a great day trip, offering an incredible lineup of interactive events perfect for curious kids, future scientists, and families who love to learn together.
From Mini Makers classes designed just for preschoolers to epic themed weekends like Dino Discovery Day and Shark Weekend, there’s something new to explore all season long. You can even get creative with cardboard at Imagination Unboxed in July!
We made a trip out there a while back and were super impressed with the facility. It really is so different from any kids museum we’ve been to. And Johnson City is such a great small town, perfect for a day trip.
So plan your visit and see all the summer events at sciencemill.org
