(Seguin) – Law officers aren’t going unnoticed in Guadalupe County. The Guadalupe County Sheriff’s Office recently opened up its doors to observe the dedication and sacrifices of these men and women. Leading the charge at this year’s recognition and memorial ceremony was Guadalupe County Sheriff Arnold Zwicke.
Zwicke says the ceremony is held each year in observance of National Correctional Officer Week May 2 to 8 and National Law Enforcement Week May 9 to 15.
After forced to cancel last year’s ongoing tradition due to the pandemic, Sheriff Zwicke says he was honored to have everyone back so that they can be properly recognized and or remembered.

(Seguin) Guadalupe County is doing its part to bring awareness to drug and alcohol use among adults and youth people in the community and to let them know that there are resources out there not just for treatment but for prevention. The county recently proclaimed the month of April as Alcohol Awareness Month. The effort is supported by the Guadalupe County Community Coalition and the San Antonio Council on Alcohol and Drug Awareness.
Abigail Moore, chief executive officer of the SA Council on Alcohol and Drug Awareness, says these proclamations are not just ceremonial but more of an effort to decrease stigma and misunderstandings to dismantle the barriers that often prevent people from treatment and recovery. She says this is especially true when it involves the youth.

(Seguin) – What did we learn? What are we going to do about it? Although it has been almost two months since Texas was blanketed with a hard to forget historic winter storm, the vision to understand exactly what happened and how to better handle things has at least one special utility district speaking up. Going over its experiences during Tuesday’s meeting of the Guadalupe County Commissioners Court were officials with the Green Valley Special Utility District. Jim Poage, the board’s vice president, says memories of Feb. 13-20 are still vivid for most folks. He says with temperatures above freezing only twice, less than 24-hour in seven days, its system design never anticipated this prolonged event – forcing many of its 14,000 residents to go without water.
