A new year is here, and going into 2026 with messy books can quietly hold a business back. If your numbers aren’t accurate, organized, and up to date, it’s hard to make confident decisions—or spot opportunities when they matter most.

If 2026 is the year you want clearer insight and better decisions, ClearView Bookkeeping can help you get there with confidence.

As New Year’s celebrations approach, Boerne’s police and fire chiefs are reminding residents to celebrate responsibly — especially when it comes to fireworks and impaired driving. Fireworks remain prohibited within city limits, and officials warn that drought conditions and dry vegetation increase the risk of dangerous fires.

For those celebrating outside city limits, officials stress keeping children away from fireworks, following all safety instructions, and never lighting fireworks while under the influence. Spent fireworks should be soaked in water before disposal to prevent flare-ups.

ONE OF BOERNE’S BIGGEST “DID THAT JUST HAPPEN?” MOMENTS OF THE YEAR 😲

Earlier this fall, not long after PrimeTime Sports Cardz opened in the Boerne area, the new shop had a moment that instantly put it on the map.

Retired NBA player George Hill stopped by and cracked open a box of Flawless Basketball, pulling a Stephen Curry Flawless Champions Tags card valued at $50,000+. As if that wasn’t enough, he also handed out leftover cards to local kids who happened to be in the shop that day.

Maybe 2026 is your year to pull a big card? Visit PrimeTime Sports Cardz and tell them The Boerne Life sent you.
