Think crafts, yard games, seed giveaways, a hay maze, live music, and a "Be a Bird Buddy" workshop teaching you how to support local wildlife.

While the above-ground fun is free from 11 am to 3 pm each weekend, you can also purchase tickets for underground tours, gem panning, zip lines, and more adventure.

DID YOU HEAR THAT LAST NIGHT?

Yes, it hailed and rained quite a bit in some places.

Parts of New Braunfels and surrounding areas saw hail overnight, along with a healthy downpour of rain.

While no major damage has been reported so far, the surprise spring storm was enough to wake up a few roof-shakers and backyard patio furniture.

Veterinarians nationwide reported that corporate managers pushed clinics to focus on profit, with vets often paid based on revenue. This encouraged them to see more pets, order more tests, and upsell services, creating a growing burden for uninsured pet owners.

Pet insurance could help you offset some of these rising costs, with some providing up to 90% reimbursement.
