Hill Country Rally for Kids

Hill Country Rally for Kids As the Rally and the community grew, it became apparent that the needs of children in the community were growing as well.

15 years ago a group of local individuals decided to create a car and motorcycle show in Driftwood/Dripping Springs to support needy boys at a local residential treatment facility. The Burke Rally was been a tremendous success over its 6 year history raising a significant amount of support both financially and through personal involvement with the boys. Many children need financial support in orde

r to participate in extra-curricular activities, improve their education opportunities, have access to healthy food and good nutrition, and in some cases, proper clothing and sufficient healthcare. This ever-growing need weighed on the founders and prompted a discussion concerning the role and mission of the Rally. After much discussion, review and prayer, the founders have decided that the best course of action is to make the following changes to the mission and role of the Rally. First, more adequately describe the expanded role. Thus, the name of the Rally will be changed from the Burke Rally to The Hill Country Rally for Kids. Secondly, the beneficiaries of the Rally’s proceeds will be expanded beyond the boys residing at the Burke Center to include other local children’s programs and activities in which the majority of donations go directly to the children’s activities they define in their Bylaws. The Hill Country Rally for Kids is now incorporated and is a 501(c)3 charity. This year’s rally funds will benefit The Burke Center for Youth, Dripping Springs Youth Activity Fund, Dripping Springs Tiger Totes & this year we are adding Amber's Angels to our list of recipients. Other children’s programs may be considered as appropriate needs are identified.

As college students across Texas head back to campus, one Hays CISD alumna is beginning her journey with $40,000 in financial support!

Congratulations to Johnson High Class of 2026 graduate Emily Buenrostro who was awarded the SpawGlass 2026 T. Frank Glass Memorial Scholarship. Established in 2003 and named in honor of SpawGlass co-founder T. Frank Glass, the scholarship reflects the company’s longstanding commitment to investing in employee families through higher education. The scholarship provides up to $40,000 to eligible dependent children of SpawGlass employees pursuing undergraduate degrees. Emily’s father, Lazaro Buenrostro, has worked as a form builder setter in the company’s San Antonio Region since April 2020.

This fall, Emily will attend Texas A&M University to study biomedical sciences before pursuing a physician assistant degree. Her interest in health care grew through HOSA-Future Health Professionals, a global student-led organization that develops future health care leaders through education, leadership development and hands-on experience, as well as through her high school’s biomedical sciences program.

Those opportunities strengthened her commitment to a career that blends scientific expertise with compassionate patient care. Emily distinguished herself through academic achievement, leadership and community service. She earned a 4.44 weighted grade-point average while maintaining a 4.0 grade-point average in dual-credit coursework at Austin Community College. She also served as vice president of HOSA, was head spirit coordinator for her class, organized community blood drives and volunteered throughout her community.

Let's give a big Hays CISD shoutout to Emily on this absolutely amazing honor! Congratulations, Emily! Information and photo courtesy SpawGlass.

Congratulations. Keep up the hard work. 👍🏻👍🏻
