🎉 OUR BLACK FRIDAY DEAL JUST WENT LIVE — AND IT’S A BIG ONE

For the first time since our initial launch, The Boerne Plus Lifetime Membership is officially back — and only for a few days. Once this Black Friday/Cyber Monday window closes, we don’t know if or when this offer will return.

A Lifetime Membership lets you:
• Lock in every Plus perk forever
• Enjoy exclusive invites, deeper local coverage, and premium perks year-round for life
• Become one of our highest-level supporters, helping us keep Boerne informed, connected, and represented with truly local journalism

If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to upgrade, this is it. The deal is available now, but it disappears after Cyber Monday — no extensions, no exceptions.

And yes… free Jones Christmas Ranch passes are still available for current and new members while supplies last.

👉 Don’t wait — claim your Lifetime Plus Membership today.

WHERE TO SEE SANTA IN BOERNE IN 2025

The holidays are here, and Boerne is buzzing with Santa sightings and festive fun. From Dickens on Main to Tapatio Springs, there are plenty of opportunities for kids (and adults) to snap photos, roast marshmallows, or even enjoy breakfast with Santa himself.

We partnered with Visit Boerne to write a Santa guide for them that you won’t want to miss. ➡️ Read it here
