BUC-EE’S WORK IS FINALLY UNDERWAY 🦫

There’s Movement at the Job Site

After nearly a decade of delays, crews have officially started work at the future home of Buc-ee’s in Boerne at Interstate 10 and U.S. 87. We first heard of activity at the site when a local reader, Rick Munoz, tipped us off that work was underway.

Yesterday morning, we stopped by and saw bulldozers at work, surveyors on-site, and trucks parked nearby—a sign that progress is finally being made.

Read all about it in our latest article!

NON-PROFIT SPOTLIGHT: HOPE FOR HEROES 👮

Mark Your Calendars for the March 15th Event

This week’s non-profit that we’d like to highlight is one of our newest partners, Hope for Heroes.

So what is Hope for Heroes Texas? It’s an organization dedicated to providing prayer, support, weekend retreats, free lunches, and much more for our incredible men and women in blue across Texas.

And you can join in helping them just by showing up to their next FREE Heroes Greeting at The Kendall on March 15th at 9 AM. It’s a morning of free breakfast, fellowship, and greeting of a few special law enforcement families to show our support.

Main Street Has Been Striped

Did you noticed the striping down Main Street looks bright and fresh? That’s because road crews were out all day yesterday re-striping all the lanes. Now we can all make sure we stay in our lanes while driving! 😀 Now if only all those jaywalkers would pay attention to the lines…
