Drought Adaptations

Due to our lack of fall and winter rains we are in a drought. In Wimberley the main source of tap water is the Trinity aquifer. Our limestone karst rocks beneath the soil have recharge areas where rain water seeps back into the underground pockets that make up our aquifer. 03/10/2022 12:00 AM

The Gold Award is the highest possible achievement with the Girl Scouts of America, and it is now part of the growing tally of accomplishments for Wimberley High School senior Makenzie Haston. Gold Award recipients must provide a lasting solution to an issue in their community, so when it came time for Makenzie to choose a project to pursue for her Gold Award, she thought of the younger Texans that share her school district and her community. 02/24/2022 12:00 AM

Colorful couple’s black and white legacy boosts the library fund

Colorful couple’s black and white legacy boosts the library fund

The moment that George and Cheryl Lauterstein came over the big hill leading into Wimberley from the Highway 32 junction with Ranch Road 12, they simultaneously gasped, smiled, and knew they had found their new home. Balancing a sense of peace with building excitement, they quickly found a realtor who took them looking at sites. Standing in the back of the realtor’s pickup, they gazed at nature’s abundance and chose their hilltop site. The Lautersteins built a stately Santa Fe style home that could grace the cover of an architecture magazine, and was, in fact, featured in the 1989 Wimberley Civic Club’s annual Home Tour. In the process, builder Gary Brim became a lifelong friend of the couple. 02/17/2022 12:00 AM
