Mata says Saturday’s line-up is

even bigger with cars, costumes and contests.

“One of the first things we’re having is the car show. That’s something new that we’re doing this year. We’re bringing back the Lucha Libre, and then our bands begin at 7:30. So we’ll have Conjunto Calidad, which is also a local band, and then we’ll have the Rock Bottom String Band that’ll be joining us before them, and then Musica Volcan, an 11-piece band coming out of Austin. Then, we also do have like two contests, the Concha Eating Contest and the Chancla throwing contest,” said Mata.

Mata says the contest is open to all dogs and costumes.

“It’s come best dressed. Last year,

we had a doggie come up as Juan Seguin. So, we’re looking to see what creative costumes they come up with this year. All are welcome, all types of costumes,” said Mata.

This year’s event will also feature local vendors, food booths, a plant swap meet, a children’s area and artwork featuring Ms. Terkuko and her “Signs of Recovery” exhibit which supports survivors of childhood poverty.

In addition, residents are invited over with their dogs for free pet microchipping.

Mata says microchipping is firstcome, first-serve over the two-day period.

“We have five different organizations joining. They’re all pretty much local chapters in Seguin, and they’re doing over 300 microtipping throughout two days. So, they’ll do 150 on Friday and 150 on Saturday,” said Mata.

The microchipping services are being provided by Seguin Snips Squad, Kingdom Rescue, ARF-Texas, Alex’s Doggy Daycare and Boarding, Canyon Critters Pet Sitting and Boarding, and Moni’s Mutt Hut.

Proceeds from this year’s Cinco de Mayo celebration will go to help support the group’s scholarship fund benefiting local students.

Spring Fiesta, Juna Seguin School reunion slated for Sunday

(Seguin) – The Fiesta Season continues Sunday on the historic grounds of Spirit of Joy Lutheran Church. The church is inviting the community to its annual Spring Fiesta and Juan Seguin School Reunion this Sunday.

Pastor Megan Elliott says the annual gathering is more than a church event. She says it is a way to honor the deep history of the place Spirit of Joy now calls home.

“When we purchased the property from Seguin ISD, we realized that the buildings in this space had a much deeper history than even just an elementary school or an early childhood center, since it was the Mexican school when Seguin was segregated and split up in that way. So, we wanted to be sure that as we entered the space, we were honoring the history of that and also honoring the role that these buildings, this school, this institution played in people’s lives, both positive and negative. And we wanted to

make sure that we were giving voice and creating space for that legacy to continue living and breathing,” said Elliott.

Elliott says the celebration, which begins at 11:30 a.m., was created as a simple but meaningful way to bring people together.

“We started this a few years back where we host a lunch and fiesta. This year, we’re going to have some face painting and a bounce house and tacos and hot dogs. And it’s really just a chance for us to come together

as a church and a community to share a meal together and some fun times and be and grow in relationship with one another,” said Elliott.

Elliott says while the first half of the event will center on food and fun, the second half of the program -beginning at 12:30 p.m. -- will work toward preserving the stories that helped shape this community.

“And then the program portion that comes after that is our Juan Seguin Reunion. In years past, we’ve had a speaker that we asked to speak, but this year, we’re going to be just really opening it up for storytelling and giving a chance for those who walked these halls to tell their stories and to bring the history of this place to life,” said Elliott.

This year’s Spring Fiesta will also feature performances by the AJB Mariachi Band and Ballet Folklorico de la Rosa.

Spirit of Joy Lutheran Church is located at 416 Dolle Ave.

Trash Free Gulf mobilizes Seguin volunteers for statewide cleanup this Saturday; sign-up still underway

(Seguin) – Residents still have time to sign up and take part in a statewide effort to keep Gulf waters clean beginning right here in Seguin.

Volunteers are being invited to join Gulf Trust for its Trash Free Gulf cleanup from 9 to 11 a.m. this Saturday at the Seguin ISD Irma Lewis Outdoor Learning Center.

Jay Kleberg, executive director of Gulf Trust, says this will be the second year that Texans will unite to prevent 45,000 pounds of trash from entering those waterways that flow into the Gulf.

“The Seguin cleanup is connected to a larger statewide effort of more than 60 cleanups that are focused on the fact that in Texas, we’re all connected by water. Every watershed in the state drains to the Gulf. And so, what happens in

Seguin on the Guadalupe River impacts everyone downstream and our bays and estuaries and the health of our oceans,” said Kleberg.

Kleberg says unfortunately, most bodies of water across the state are crippled with litter.

“As you’ve seen, recent storms come through Seguin and other parts of the state, anything that’s on land, if it’s a

plastic bottle or if it’s Styrofoam, there’s a high likelihood that that’s going to end up in a creek or a river like the Guadalupe. And then that will likely make its way into our bays and estuaries and into the Gulf. And so what happens in Seguin and in the litter cleanup there is important, not just for people’s health, but certainly for marine life and birds and other species,” said Kleberg.

Thanks to H-E-B’s Our Texas, Our Future, the initiative will continue throughout May with cleanup events scheduled statewide.

Registration is still open for this Saturday’s cleanup in Seguin; volunteers can sign up at: https://www.trashfreegulf. com/find-a-cleanup/template-ydfd8

The outdoor learning center is located at 1865 E. U.S. Highway 90.

Election, continued.

New Braunfels, Elections Office Annex in Schertz, Selma City Hall, Marion ISD Tonde Room, and Geronimo (VFW Post 8456),” said PerezGarcia.

Although this flexibility is intended to make voting more convenient, Perez-Garcia still urges residents to check their sample ballot before arriving at the polls.

“Your local cities and schools may have races and measures on the ballot. However, not every voter lives within the boundaries of their city or school district, which is important to verify because your ballot is based on your residential address,” said Perez-Garcia.

She says those wishing to know exactly what they are voting have a couple of easy options in which to check.

“One of the two ways information is available to the public is by, of course, checking our webpage, clicking on the name of the election of their interest, and verifying polling locations and hours there. Once on the website, a voter can also view sample ballots. And the other way to find information is, of course, by calling our elections office,” said Perez-Garcia.

She says with multiple elections on tap for the remainder of the spring, double checking your sample ballot and other voting information is crucial.

“We are currently also conducting early voting for a special runoff election for the City of Schertz, which happens to pause voting over this upcoming weekend and may cause confusion. And we’ll start back up next Monday, May 4th,” said Perez-Garcia.

Voters are also reminded that they are not required to have their voter certificate in hand to vote. She says a government-issued ID is acceptable.

Guadalupe County residents can find sample ballots, polling locations and additional election information on the Guadalupe County Elections Office website. Election Day is Saturday, May 2. Election results will be made available following the race at SeguinToday.com.

projects without increasing the district’s current tax rate.

The proposal includes roughly $5.4 million for facility reinvestment projects, including roof and HVAC upgrades at Navarro Elementary and the district annex, both of which are tied to plans for a future early childhood center. Another $57.5 million would go toward junior high expansion, including additional classrooms, a cafetorium, kitchen improvements, gym updates and site infrastructure work such as drainage

and fencing. The remaining $1.9 million would fund transportation needs, including buses and expanded secure parking for the district fleet.

Navarro ISD officials say the bond package is intended to prepare for continued growth, with the district projected to add between 250 and 350 students annually over the next decade.

While district leaders say the proposal would not raise the current tax rate, state law still requires all school bond ballots in Texas to carry language stating that the measure is a property tax increase, even in cases where no rate increase is expected.

Meanwhile, the Navarro ISD is not the only school district in Guadlaupe County proposing new bond projects. A $295 million bond package will also go before voters in SchertzCibolo-Universal City ISD.

Polls on Saturday will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Any registered voter in Guadalupe County, despite where they live, can vote at the following six locations. Those locations include the Seguin Elections Office, Redemptive Grace Ministries in New Braunfels, Elections Office Annex in Schertz, Selma City Hall, Marion ISD Tonde Room, and the Geronimo VFW Post 8456.

New Braunfels location provides educational opportunities for residents of Comal & Guadalupe Counties: • Accounting, Biology, Chemistry, Economics, English, Math, Fine Arts, Philosophy, Psychology • Day & evening options • IT - Cyber Defense and Networking • Associate Degree with a Business pre-major

FDA Affirms Safety Of Infant Formula

(Silver Spring, MD) - The FDA is calling infant formula in the U.S. “a safe option” for parents and caregivers following first of its kind testing. The FDA purchased and tested more than 300 infant formula samples at retail stores covering 16 brands and analyzed the samples for contaminants such as heavy metals, pesticides and “forever chemicals.” According to the agency, majority of infant formula samples had undetectable or very low levels of contaminants, but the FDA did not check for botulism or other types of bacterial contamination that lead to major recalls and a nationwide shortage. HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will host chief executives from leading infant formula companies in May for a roundtable discussion on modernizing the FDA’s infant formula oversight.

A Surprising Side Effect of Weight Loss Drugs: They Quiet ‘Food Noise’

(New York, NY) -- Many people prescribed GLP-1s are surprised to find that GLP-1s, a class of weight loss medications, quiet what’s known as ‘food noise.’ That refers to ongoing internal dialogues about what to eat, what not to eat, when to eat, and how to resist eating. Scientists at Columbia University tell The New York Times, that the drugs may temporarily lower a person’s ‘set-point,’ the weight their body naturally gravitates to. They want to look into that more. Once a patient stops taking the medication, the set-point resets and they tend to gain weight.

ADPH: ATVs Linked To High Injury, Death Rates

(Anchorage, AK) -- Alaska health officials say widespread ATV use is driving high injury and death rates.

Officials report more than 44-hundred emergency room visits tied to ATV incidents, with injuries including head trauma, fractures, and lacerations. Data shows children account for nearly a third of injuries and 15-percent of deaths. Authorities urge riders to follow safety laws and use protective gear as education efforts continue.

Mount Sinai Offers Bone Health Advice

(New York, NY) -- Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City is offering tips on keeping your bones strong as you get older. In a newsletter to patients, the hospital recommends eating a diet with lots of calcium, vitamin D and protein, do weight bearing exercises and talk to a doctor about prescribed medications that improve bone density.
