THE CROWN JEWEL OF FAIR OAKS RANCH GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB IS NOW OPEN

The Boerne Life local real estate expert Charley Wasson from Sunflower Real Estate (and proud club member) gave us an inside look — from greeting friends to grabbing cocktails and exploring the brand-new space.

YOUR GUIDE TO BOERNE STAGE 2 WATER RESTRICTIONS 💦

Yesterday, we mentioned that the Burn Ban was back on, as we are near entering extreme drought conditions. With that in mind, we thought it was a good time to put together a guide discussing current water restrictions: what they mean and what they’re for.

The guide is brought to you by our friends at Aqua-Man Water Conditioning. No one knows water in Boerne better than them! Whether you’re dealing with hard water or need a filtration system to rid your water of impurities, Aqua-Man has been Boerne’s go-to for over 30 years.

Protect your appliances, skin, and health from hard and unhealthy water! Visit them at 32545 I-10 West or give them a call at (830) 816-2290.
