Taking the Plunge, Our Good Neighbor of the Month

Sign Up For The Polar Bear Plunge: A Wimberley Tradition!

Start the new year with a stride and a splash by signing up for Wimberley’s Polar Bear Plunge and 5K at Blue Hole Regional Park on Saturday, January 3rd! Whether you’re running the trail or braving the chilly plunge, it’s a fun way to shake off the holiday season and support our local parks.

The scenic run (or walk) winds through the Park's peaceful trails and ends with a chilly dip into the Blue Hole. Registration is $35 and includes entry fees, a commemorative t-shirt, drink tickets for a warm beverage, and a swag bag. Check-in begins at 9:15am, with the 5K beginning at 10am.

Register ASAP to secure your spot in one of the coolest traditions in town.

If you haven't yet contributed, there's still time.

Texans Continue Their Winning Ways

The Wimberley Texan football and volleyball teams have received a whole trove of honors for their 2025 campaigns. Eight volleyball players, as well as head coach Misty Fletcher Remmers, have been honored with spots on the District 26-4A All-District Team. And a whopping 21 football players were recognized with District 13-4A-II honors.

Meanwhile, on the hardwood, the boys hoops team took first place in the Aransas Pass Battle of the Bay tournament, winning five games in three days.

And let's hear it for the speech and debate team, placing third out of 28 schools in the Spring High School tournament over the weekend.

Well done, TEXANS!!!

Salute Our Veteran of the Week

VFW Post 6441 and KWVH salute Staff Sergeant Richard Mabee, United States Air Force. From 1966 to 1973, Sgt. Mabee served around the world—Vietnam, South Korea, Japan, and bases across the U.S. He was a dedicated F-4 Phantom Crew Chief, keeping one of America’s most iconic jet fighters mission-ready.

After his Air Force service, Richard built an impressive 18-year career as a cabinetmaker, crafting wood with the same precision he brought to the flight line. He later turned his eye to photography, a passion he still pursues today.

Since 2005, Richard has called Wimberley home and is a proud member of VFW Post 6441.
