Our History - Respecting the Past, Living the Present, Preparing for the Future
In January, 1903, a group of concerned citizens called a meeting to organize a fire company for the City of Boerne.
Founding Fathers
| Fire Chief | F.W. Homer |
| Assistant Fire Chief | George Zoeller |
| Secretary | Bruno Wendler |
| Treasurer | H.J. Graham |
F.W. Homer was elected as temporary chairman and an immediate vote was taken and passed to continue with the formation of a permanent fire company to be named the Boerne Volunteer Fire Company (BVFC). Officer elections followed and resulted in the founding officers list. Fire Chief Homer then appointed members to a Bylaws and Charter Committee. Membership was limited to 30 members by vote on a motion made by Mr. Zoeller. The historic meeting was then adjourned with the next meeting set for Wednesday, January 7, 1903.
