👉Events This Week + More Ways to Help

IN PARTNERSHIP WITH

Good morning, Boerne. This is The Boerne Life, the newsletter that is proud to see how everyone is coming together to support those impacted by the floods.

Today, we’ll let you know what events are going on for the rest of the week, Tuesday through Thursday, since we sort of skipped that yesterday to focus on more important matters at hand.

NEW AUTOSHOP IN TOWN WITH AWESOME SERVICE

Finding the right person to work on your car can be difficult. That’s why we’re excited to tell you about ULTRACARS Motor Sports, a new shop here in Boerne. I can personally attest to their service and expertise, as they’ve done extensive work on my Honda, which I’m getting all primed to pass on to my daughter.

The customer service is second-to-none. Before starting the work, they took me in and walked me through everything to ensure I understood exactly what needed to be done. They even showed me a mistake a previous mechanic made!

Located at 136 Industrial Dr C, they’re tucked back behind the former KCA Services building. Visit them on the web here.

THE BOERNE BONUS

🧤 Singing Water Vineyards Calls for Gloves for Rescue Workers

Our friends at Singing Water Vineyards are helping spread the word: volunteer rescue workers are running through their personal gear quickly—and work gloves are an urgent need. If you can donate Medium, Large, or XL gloves, please deliver them to the Comfort Volunteer Fire Department as soon as possible.

Prefer to give financially? You can make a donation and mark it for “replacement gear for volunteers” to help cover essential costs that departments typically can’t fund.
➡️ Donate to Comfort VFD

☕ Brevity Coffee Giving Back

Your daily cup is doing more than perking you up. Brevity Coffee is donating a portion of this week’s proceeds to flood relief efforts across the Texas Hill Country. The team also shared a heartfelt message of support and prayers for the families and first responders impacted.
