Saturday, April 29th there will be a Drive-Thru BBQ at the Sheriff's Office in honor of Deputy Mike Hudson who was recently diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer. Mike Hudson has been employed with the Kendall County Sheriff's Office as a Courthouse Deputy since 2018. Deputy Hudson has an infectious smile, a great sense of humor, and a true servant's heart. The BBQ Drive-Thru will start at 11am and continue until all the food is gone. All plates will be by donation only and the proceeds will go to the Hudson Family to assist with any needs as they fight this battle. The BBQ plates will consist of Chicken, Sausage, Beans, Potato Salad, and all the fixings. In this family, no one fights alone so please come out and show your support for Deputy Hudson!! 💜 💜

We are urging everyone to please stay home.

Widespread snow will overspread the area tonight. Temperatures will drop into the single digits and teens by morning with wind chills less than zero expected.

Please stay off roadways as anyone stranded may not be helped for a prolonged period of time. Gusty winds will drop visibilities within the heaviest snow below 1/4 of a mile at times.

Tx-Dot has been out all day treating the roads in an attempt to keep up with the inclement conditions. As conditions continue to deteriorate, their primary focus will be IH-10 in Kendall County. Secondary roads will not be treated.

Things will only get more severe! Please stay home!

I would like to thank the citizens of Kendall County for your continued support as your elected Sheriff.
I am honored to serve and protect our many communities throughout our county.
I was blessed to be uncontested and am humbled to have received your vote to continue on for 4 more years serving you.
My office continues to stand on "Courtesy-Service-Protection" that was engrained in me through my 25 years serving the great state of Texas as a Texas Department of Public Safety Highway Patrol Trooper.
I believe our Law Enforcement personnel truly care about every citizen in our county with compassion and professionalism, and am grateful for the incredible team we have as your Kendall County Law Enforcement family.
Again, thank you for the confidence you have placed in me and the support you have shown me and my amazing staff.

Never Forget!

We are so honored that Cheryl Goudreau has taken on the challenge to climb the Tower in Deputy Ramirez's and Sgt. Johnson's memory.

Thank you is never enough for the wonderful men and women who are so caring and compassionate to the families of our fallen officers and first responders.

From Cheryl's words, I could never rephrase this eloquently enough, "on this day hold your loved ones a little closer, take a moment to appreciate the sacrifices that every firefighter, police officer, and emergency personnel give each and everyday to keep us safe. Deputy Ramirez, Sgt Johnson. Thank you for your service and sacrifice you have given to the citizens of Kendall County. I am honored to complete this climb in honor of you."
