IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
Good morning, Boerne. It’s Wednesday, so you could probably use a joke. Why are Saturdays stronger than Wednesdays? ‘Cause Wednesday is a Weak Day. 😁
Inside Today's Email:
Red Crest Pet Store Property Meeting Set for July 7 Public Hearing
Arcade Games Go in at Carmella’s Pizza
Boerne Resident Hits Food Network in New BBQ Competition Series
Comfort's Historic Beer Emergency and Cannon Caper
And a whole lot more. Let’s get into it!

If you've been thinking about adding a hot tub, swim spa, or cold plunge to your home, now's the time. The MasterSpas of Boerne Freedom & Wellness Sale is happening now at 1307 River Rd. with some of the best deals of the year on American-made swim spas and hot tubs.
Even better, every purchase helps support the mission of Tunnel to Towers, honoring military heroes, first responders, and their families. It's a chance to save big while supporting a great cause.

The debate over the future of the Red Crest Pet Shop building isn't over yet. After an earlier vote was ruled invalid, the Historic Landmark Commission will rehear the demolition request next week on Tuesday, July 7 at 5:30 pm at Boerne City Hall, giving residents an opportunity to share their thoughts before a final decision is made.
If you've been following the conversation, now's your chance to make your voice heard.
The excitement keeps building at Carmella's Vintage Pizza Parlor. Arcade games have officially been installed at 110 Market Ave., adding even more retro fun to the vintage pizza parlor experience that's coming to Boerne this summer.
With classic arcade games, nostalgic vibes, and pizza from a well-known local chef, Carmella's is shaping up to be a destination for the whole family. The countdown to opening is on.

BOERNE’S AL FRUGONI IS HEADED TO THE FOOD NETWORK
One of the world's most recognizable open-fire pitmasters—and a Kendall County resident—is about to compete on national television.
Food Network has announced a new barbecue competition series called Pitmasters, and Al Frugoni will be one of the featured competitors when the show premieres July 13.
Al has built a massive following through his live-fire cooking videos and events, introducing millions of people to Argentine-style asado and open-fire cooking. Food Network notes that he grew up in Argentina, where cooking over an open fire was a weekly tradition.
Pitmasters premieres July 13 on Food Network and streams the next day on HBO Max. Learn more.

Back in 1856, Comfort's Fourth of July beer shipment arrived too early, putting the entire wagonload at risk of spoiling before the celebration. The townspeople responded the only way they knew how: they fired the town's emergency cannon and started celebrating early, drinking all the beer.
That unforgettable piece of Hill Country history lives on through the annual Comfort Cannon Caper, returning July 3 with live music, a historical reenactment, and plenty of local fun.
Looking for something fun to do with the kids before the Fourth of July festivities begin? The Play Patch is hosting a Red, White & Blue Play Date on Friday, July 3 at 9091 Fair Oaks Pkwy in Fair Oaks Ranch, complete with open play, festive fun, and a special bonus.
Dress your child in red, white, or blue and receive one free drink per paid child during your visit. Spots are limited, so reserving ahead is the best way to guarantee your playtime.
