Today at our City Council meeting, we were honored to join together with Camino Real to officially proclaim September as Su***de Awareness Month. 💜🩵

This month is an important reminder to check on our family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors, to have the hard conversations, and to remind one another that no one has to struggle alone.

A simple conversation can make a difference. Awareness matters. Support matters. You matter.

If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available 24/7. Call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.

Today was a BIG day for Karnes City as we officially celebrated the ribbon cutting of our brand new pickleball courts! 🎉

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who came out to celebrate, hit a few balls, cheer each other on, and help make this day so special!

This new addition is more than just a couple of courts, it’s another investment in our parks, our community, and creating a place where families, friends, and neighbors can come together, get active, and HAVE FUN!

We’re especially proud of the collaboration that made this project possible and excited to see these courts filled with laughter, friendly competition, and fun!

Karnes City Police Department is hiring!

Know someone who would make a great School Resource Officer? Or maybe that someone is you!

If you have a passion for serving others, building positive relationships with kids, and making a difference through law enforcement, we’d love to have you join our team.

This is more than a job, it’s an opportunity to mentor, protect, and be a positive presence in the lives of our students every day.
