The Boerne - Visit Boerne Advisory Board meeting on July 10, 2025, focused on the performance and visitor trends of the Hill Country Mile, a key area for local shopping and dining. The discussion highlighted the steady traffic levels in the Hill Country Mile, indicating that local residents are actively engaging with the area.

Reports presented during the meeting showed minimal fluctuations in visitor numbers, suggesting a stable interest in the Hill Country Mile. It was noted that the data reflects individuals who have physically visited the area, emphasizing that only those who have stopped and spent time there are counted in the reports. This includes both locals and visitors, providing a clearer picture of the area's appeal.

The board observed a slight increase in multi-day trips during the first quarter of 2025 compared to the previous year, indicating a growing trend in longer visits. However, the overall traffic patterns remained consistent, with no significant changes in the origins of visitors. Notably, there was a small uptick in visitors from Bergheim, a nearby community, which was recognized as a positive development for local businesses.

The meeting concluded with an invitation for questions regarding the data and its implications for future marketing and outreach efforts. The board's focus on local engagement and visitor trends underscores the importance of the Hill Country Mile as a vital economic and cultural hub for Boerne.
