BUILD YOUR CARD COLLECTION RIGHT HERE IN BOERNE

Whether you’re hunting for vintage baseball cards, graded rookies, sealed packs, or the latest Pokémon drops, Boerne has several local shops worth checking out. Each one offers something a little different for collectors and card fans.

Prime Time Sports Cardz, Heroes Hideout, Sneaker X, Fickle Pickle, and Wolf Den Gaming all offer ways to find your next great card without heading to San Antonio.

A PIECE OF BOERNE HISTORY IS GETTING NEW FLOORS AS IT PREPARES FOR ITS NEXT CHAPTER

Did you hear? Boerne’s original school property at 402 E Blanco is being transformed into the new home of Crestmont Christian Preparatory School, set to open in early October. 

The main two-story building you see from the road was built in 1910, with the smaller original schoolhouse behind it dating back to 1874.

Now, Crestmont will be bringing students back to the property more than a century after these buildings were constructed.

And helping get those classrooms ready? Our partners at Couture Floors, a local Boerne business celebrating 20 years this year.

Father-and-son Jed and Hunter Mazour are currently working on the floors inside the historic building as it prepares to welcome students again in Fall 2026.

There’s just something fitting about a local family business helping give new life to a piece of Boerne history, especially when that piece of history is becoming a school once again.

And if you’ve got some floors that could use a new chapter too, Couture Floors can help with hardwood, carpet, luxury vinyl, tile, custom showers and more. They offer free estimates and have an experienced design team that can help you figure out exactly what works for your home. You can learn more here.

Located right here in Boerne, Genesis offers counseling services for individuals, couples, families, teens, and children through a team of experienced licensed clinical providers. They also provide support for anxiety, trauma, grief, parenting challenges, marriage counseling, autism assessments, and more.

What stood out to us most is their heart for the community. Genesis partners with local churches, schools, nonprofits, businesses, veterans, first responders, and families across the Hill Country to help make trusted mental health support more accessible and approachable.

Led locally by Jen Belz, LPC, Genesis combines professional clinical care with a faith-informed foundation centered on hope, healing, and growth. We also see Jen and her husband out supporting local events and organizations around Boerne all the time, which says a lot about how invested they are in this community.
