IN PARTNERSHIP WITH

Good morning, Boerne. This is The Boerne Life, the newsletter that has a super busy week ahead, starting with the Boerne High School Homecoming Parade tonight. Who is ready for some candy? 🍬

Remember, Blanco Rd will be closed from Main Plaza to Esser from 5:30 - 7:30, along with the stretch of Esser there from Blanco to the high school entrance.

Ok, let’s take a look at all the other stuff!

TRAIN LIKE A CHAMPION AT NEWKS 🎾

Looking ahead to the holidays? Newks Tennis Ranch in New Braunfels is already lining up its world-class junior tennis camps, widely considered some of the best in the Texas Hill Country.

Thanksgiving Camp runs Nov. 22–26, followed by Winter Camps on Dec. 19–23, Dec. 26–31, and Jan. 1–4. Each camp is customized by age and skill level — beginners learn the basics, while competitive players train hard with on-court fitness to get tournament ready.

The camps are a blast on and off the court. Our own daughter attended this summer and came home a stronger player — strong enough to make varsity at Boerne High as a sophomore. We credit Newks for giving her that edge.

For more details, commuter rates, or to sign up, visit newktennis.com or call 830-625-9105.
