Strong winds caused significant damage to the Carriage House Gallery at 110 Rosewood, pulling off part of the roof and drawing attention from crews working on site. Thankfully, early updates confirm that everyone is safe and no major interior damage occurred.

According to those close to the gallery, the tar paper held in place, preventing leaks, and repairs were approved quickly with work already underway. It’s a reminder of how unpredictable Hill Country weather can be, and how quickly the community steps in to respond.

Did you experience any wind damage? If so, make sure to call our partners at Wilson Roofing & Renovations. They’re offering free roof inspections and estimates to help you get things put back together! Call them at 210-764-4111 or visit them here.

After 17 years leading Visit Boerne, Larry Woods is retiring at the end of March, closing out a career that helped put Boerne on the map as a top Hill Country destination. Through strategic marketing and a clear vision, his work brought visitors from across Texas and beyond to experience the town’s charm.

During his tenure, Visit Boerne expanded its reach globally, supported local businesses, and played a key role in major developments like the Visitors Center and The Bevy Hotel. His leadership has had a lasting impact on the local economy and community, helping shape the Boerne many people know today.

Did you know that back when Stone Cold Steve Austin was at the height of his wrestling career, he was living right here in Boerne? And like any local, he had his go-to spot. That place? Mague’s Cafe, a longtime Boerne staple known for its classic Tex-Mex and hometown feel.
