Welcome &

THANK YOU!

I am so grateful for all your support of Kerrville Family Guide during this launch. The response to the Mother’s Day Giveaway was amazing & I loved reading your responses. I have lots of ideas brewing & am excited for the future of this community we are building.

This newsletter is brought to you buy C3 Swim School.

What to expect

Kerrville Family Guide’s goal is simple:

To create an easy, trustworthy place for local families to find activities, camps, events, businesses & helpful resources all in one place. I want this to be useful, organized & take a load off your plate while helping families feel more connected to our community. I’m a local mom myself and I know how chaotic life can get & I am on a mission to help everyone get some of their mental bandwidth back.

And the winner is….

VANESSA LOPEZ!

Thank you so much to our sponsors SALT Wellness + Sports Recovery & Premier Beauty for their generous donations and believing in Kerrville Family Guide from the very beginning. I’m so honored to partner with such amazing local women-owned businesses.

And ladies, if you have a birthday, anniversary or just need to treat yourself, make sure a service or gift card from these two are on your wishlist.

A HUGE thank you to everyone who entered and shared the giveaway, tagged friends, and helped spread the word this week. Several of y’all went above and beyond, and it genuinely helped Kerrville Family Guide grow. I am incredibly grateful to ALL of you. I have lots of fun ideas brewing & I am excited to continue to give back & build this community with y’all.

Vanessa, I will reach out to you directly tomorrow.
