Need something to do today? We're hosting a TIME LOOP MOVIE MARATHON at Viking Vapor & Smoke today starting at 12pm. Plus, we're bringing out all our new THCA flower strains for February and having a sale. So, yeah, come hang.
(Did I mention there are breakfast tacos and cupcakes?)
ISO a mechanic I can take my 2012 nissan altima to that can take out the valve body from my transmission and put it back together, make sure everything is right, I replaced the CVT stepper motor and now can't shift in reverse! Also trying to spend as little money as possible, I am DIRT broke (probably couldn't afford the dirt either!)
Make sure and get egg photographs at the grocery store and gas prices at the gas pump because everything’s about to go up. Tariffs, here we come!
I just think people might want to know the potentially dangerous people in our community https://www.ksat.com/news/ksat-investigates/2025/01/21/former-von-ormy-mayor-husband-of-neisd-committee-member-among-people-from-sa-area-charged-or-convicted-in-jan-6-attack/
Seeing this on other pages. This just a good general list for all.
Hey everyone! It's almost time for Sweaty Yeti 5K!
It's Comal Trails Alliance biggest event of the year! New Braunfels' only trail race, it serves to highlight the work Comal Trails does, connect the community, and raise money so that Comal Trails Alliance can continue advocating for Trails and Parks Space for the public.
It's also a lot of fun!
April 12. There is info at comaltrails.org and the signup is here (this link if fixed – thanks for your patience!)
We have something for everyone!
I know you can go run through Panther Canyon without paying a fee, but the recent expansions to Panther Canyon are the result of Comal Trails Alliance volunteer efforts and advocacy.
We've the South Rim trail and are expanding with the upcoming North Rim Trail; this is all done with volunteer work (yes, even the Board members are volunteers).
We also raise money to hire trail builders when appropriate (we have a future expansion at Curry Nature Center near Canyon Lake)
And we've added the fun pump track at Dry Comal Creek.
We help the city with providing maintenance to these trail systems as well and advocate for the city to meet the outdoor recreation needs of its citizens.
I hope you can make it and help us advance our goal of connecting Comal county communities via trails :)
I currently live north/north central in San Antonio (281/1604 area) and am considering a job in NB (typical 9-5, Monday through Friday). I know the NB to SA commute is a drag, but how about the reverse commute from SA to NB and back?
ETA: My husband works remotely, and, if I took this job and loved it, but hated the commute, we'd very likely think about moving to the NB area, so I'd probably do it for 6 months and see how it goes.
Help! I know I can google or look on Yelp but there’s a difference between a great coffee shop… and a great coffee shop for a first date.
What I’m looking for:
I’m hoping to pick an amazing place, with y’all’s help 🙏
Hello Neighbors, I just wanted to give a shout out to New Braunfels Youth Lacrosse aka NBYL. They are a newer club (2022) and looking for more players. If your son or daughter K-8 does no't have a sport they are playing in the Spring or are wanting to try something else. Lacrosse may be the sport for them.
Registration fees are low, you can rent equipment cheap and it's an awesome sport to spectate. The Lacrosse community is new in NB and why not have your child grow with it? I've attached a photo with some important dates. NBYL would love to help your child learn about Lacrosse and have tons of fun doing it. Here is a link if you would like more info.
Reaching a historic low of 49 percent today, the threshold engages stage 4 water restrictions for grba customers. Is this a blessing in disguise to prepare for a flood to the likes of 2002 or a wake up call?
Hey y’all! I just moved to New Braunfels and am excited to explore the area. I’ve heard great things about the Guadalupe River and Gruene Hall, but I know there’s gotta be more hidden gems around here.
I’m looking for recommendations on: • Best local restaurants (especially for BBQ or Tex-Mex) • Fun outdoor activities • Cool dive bars or breweries • Any underrated spots that most tourists miss
Would love to hear from locals! What are your favorite spots that I have to check out?
Wanna make some brisket/pork belly banh mi sandwiches but the ones from heb bakery are kinda tough. Suggestions?
My H.S boyfriend and I have reconnected after 30 years. We were never able to go out on a date due to my very strict family. After 30 years it’s happening. I’m looking for nice place to meet up in the New Braunfels area. Thank you.
Hello everyone this is Eden, she lives here in New Braunfels. Last Friday she was let go just two weeks before going on paid maternity leave that was approved back in November. Her boss was not able to point to a single metric she didn't hit just that she wasn't a good fit. This has left her without pay for months, no severance offered and at the end of this month will no longer have insurance unless she has the extra cash to pay cobra's insane premiums leaving her uninsured going into the month she is due. If anyone in this thread has linkedin please go repost, comment, anything helps. Feel free to post on Facebook or other social media platforms. This is truly egregious. The link to the post is below. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/eden-murphy-90676b1b8_today-i-was-let-go-from-paycom-for-no-reason-activity-7288712635557064704-xsL5?utm_medium=ios_app&utm_source=social_share_sheet&utm_campaign=copy_link
I'm single and need someone to clean my apartment every couple of weeks. It's a small apartment, with hard floors throughout. Any recommendations?
Can someone currently living in an apartment in New Braunfels, Creekside area, provide an estimate on what they are currently paying monthly for Utilities? (Water, Electric, Wifi, Etc)
I’ve been living in NB for about 8 years, but have only been renting homes, looking at moving to a 1br apt in creekside in a few months, just trying to get an estimate to plan out finances.
Thank you for the insight!
Hello!
Newish to the area and looking for a church. I have some personal requirements just based on the two home churches I adored as a kid and worked at earlier in my adult life. Are there any churches like this in the area? I’m having a hard time finding one based on my personal research.
Runs buses. I believe in the next generation and both of my previous home churches understood this by bringing in kids who can’t come to church otherwise. Not a hard requirement but at least prioritizing the next generation is necessary
Outreach. Serving the local community is super important to me
Preferably nondenominational. That said, I’m open to denominations if they happen to do the above!
Thanks!
Everytime I try to get my 11 year old, almost 12, into a league, there are never enough kids to form a team, then after a couple of practices they just stop become there aren’t enough to make a team. Is there a solid team in town or am I going to have to drive to San Antonio to get him into an established program?
Why the heck does the entire town smell like rotten eggs as if there is a gigantic gas leak?
I first smelled it today when exiting Golds Gym, then smelled it when exiting Best Buy, then again after leaving the TA station after getting some drinks all within a span of 30ish minutes.
We have some furniture we need moved in the house, upstairs to downstairs and visa versa. It’s not a lot, but we have decided it should be left to professionals to protect our walls and sanity.
Does anyhow have a recommendation of local companies I should check out?
Does anyone know about a mysterious blue light that flashed last night around 11:00-11:30? I saw a bunch of NBPD and NBFD going in that direction but I have no idea what happened. Any clues?
Supposedly ICE was out lurking in creekside and Walmart this is something that I was just told…anybody see anything suspicious?
Anyone have reccomendations for barbers good with black/curly hair?
Thanks
Somehow made it this long without getting covid. That changed this week. Mostly sinus pressure and cough but was wondering what meals y’all nursed yourselves up with? Been sucking down canned soups and pedialyte and that’s getting old.
I am planning to buy a house and move to New Braunfels because of a job opportunity. I was born and raised in San Antonio, and am somewhat familiar with New Braunfels. I am eyeing the neighborhoods around County Line Rd & S Walnut area.
How is the safety, schools and neighborhood around this area? From what I see, the homes are reasonably priced and the location is pretty convenient to navigate around the city and getting on 35.
Hoping that some of the locals can shed some light for me.
Where are you hosting your kids' birthday parties? This would be in March, so weather is hard to predict. AGGI, J&R are already booked ;/
if you ever get anything doordashed around fm 306/bucees area, be mindful of a guy (I’m assuming) named Kevin & claiming to speak only Spanish- he’s picking up order, stealing the food, and redirecting your order to another dasher & places are claiming someone picked up the order “30 minutes” ago. they remake the orders- which is nice- but why Kevin, why? 🥲
