IN PARTNERSHIP WITH

Good morning, Boerne. Happy National Frog Jumping Day. Not sure how to celebrate that one, so let’s get straight to the stories.

  • May Dinner Club announcement

  • Boerne ISD purchases 31 acres on North Main for future growth

  • The iconic BHS wall near the baseball field is coming down

  • Morrison’s Veterinary Clinic building is now up for lease

  • Free lunch today at NAPA

And a whole lot more. Let’s get into it!

WE’RE OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCING THE 2ND BOERNE LIFE DINNER CLUB — MAY 27TH

The first event brought together 64 locals across 7 different restaurants around Boerne for a night of great food, new friendships, and conversations that carried into the after-party.

And now, before we’ve even officially announced this one, almost 100 people have already signed up.

So if you’ve been thinking about trying it, don’t wait too long.

Here’s how it works:

  • Take a quick personality & interests quiz

  • Get matched with 5 other locals

  • Restaurant revealed the morning of the event

  • Everyone meets at the after-party after dinner

Whether you’re new to town, looking to meet more people, or just want to do something different, this has turned into something really special.

Because demand has been so high, we’ve ALSO opened signups for Dinner Club #3 on June 24th!

Both events are expected to sell out, so reserve your spot below before it fills up

Huge thanks to our May Dinner Club sponsor, Charley Wasson of Sunflower Real Estate. He’ll be there with a prize for everyone who shows up to the after party to enter to win!

Boerne ISD officially purchased 31 acres along North Main Street in what district leaders are calling a major step toward future growth planning. According to reports, the land could eventually become the future home of a new Boerne Middle School North campus as the area along the I-10 corridor continues to expand.

District leaders also shared that if the current Boerne Middle School North campus ever relocates, the existing Johns Road property could potentially become a Career & Technical Education hub focused on vocational and skilled trades programs.

Singing Water Vineyards is bringing in JoiLux Dueling Pianos for the first time on Saturday, June 13, and this is definitely not your average live music night. Expect crowd interaction, comedy, sing-alongs, and the kind of energy where people somehow end up singing songs they forgot they knew.

The show is led by award-winning performer Joi Keeling, one of the top female dueling pianists in the country, and it sounds like a really fun excuse for a Hill Country night out.

BISD WANTS YOUR INPUT ON THIS ICONIC WALL

Boerne ISD announced that the longtime wall near the Boerne High School baseball field will need to be removed for safety reasons after nearly 40 years as a recognizable campus landmark. The wall, partially built by BHS students in the late 1980s, has become one of those instantly recognizable pieces of Boerne High history.

The district is now asking the community to share ideas for how the wall could be commemorated before removal begins.

If replacing your floors has been sitting on the “eventually” list for way too long, this might be the push you needed. Couture Floors is wrapping up its Spring Into Style Flooring Sale on May 18, with savings up to $500 on select flooring.

Located at 29157 I-10, Couture Floors has been helping Boerne homeowners for more than 20 years with hardwood, tile, carpet, and custom flooring projects from design through installation.

After many years serving Boerne pet owners, Dr. Morrison has officially retired, and the longtime veterinary clinic building is now up for lease. For many locals, it’s the end of an era for a practice that cared for generations of family pets around town.
