Since its opening in 2023, Sunrise Christian Schoolhouse has grown into much more than just a place of academic instruction. As it kicks off its third school year, those who walk the halls understand that it’s become a haven for faith and an intentional community focused on building character. Nestled in the heart of Dripping Springs, the school’s mission is simple but powerful: to provide Christ-centered education in a nurturing, academically rigorous environment.

Julie FitzGerald, a dedicated teacher who’s been with the school since its beginning, reflects on what makes Sunrise so special. “I teach at a Christian school because I believe Jesus should be central in all areas of life,” she shares. “Here, I get to teach Scripture and impart Biblical values while helping my students understand that giving their best matters because Jesus gave His best for us.”

Earlier this year, a new local celebrity took over Dripping Springs social media: Milton the pig. A 9-year-old, 250-pound Kunekune, Milton caused a stir when he escaped from his gated yard and began wandering the streets, delighting neighbors and sparking viral “Where’s Milton?” posts.

Milton lives with native Texans Wes Sanders and Heather Barclay-Sanders, who raised him from a 6-week-old piglet. Now a spoiled family member, he enjoys Starbucks snacks, dog treats, rump scratches, and plenty of time inside with his dog and cat siblings. “He’s just as sweet as can be,” says Heather. “He’s our baby.”

But Milton has a wild streak. A few months ago, he broke free and wandered far from home. Neighbors began posting sightings, concerned yet charmed by the unexpected visitor. Eventually, Milton strolled back into the yard on his own, but the adventures didn’t end there. He’s since slipped out several more times, each escapade greeted with community excitement and social media buzz.

We all know movement is crucial for raising healthy, happy kids. It builds coordination, confidence, and even boosts brain development. But when the sun’s blazing and screens are tempting, getting kids outside can be a real challenge. That’s where these simple, natural strategies come in. They’re fun, instinctive, and they work with your kid’s nature—not against it.

You don’t need much to get started, but a few essentials go a long way:
• A shaded area or trees to climb
• Friends, cousins, or siblings
• A parent ready to set the tone

1. Climb a Tree
… or a fence … or the playground. Kids love to climb, and climbing builds strength, coordination, and confidence without them even realizing it. You don’t need to teach perfect form; just encourage exploration and movement through space.

2. Grab a Buddy
Nothing motivates kids like friendly competition. Whether it’s who can do the most pushups, hang from the bar the longest, or make it to the top of the hill first, challenging a friend taps into their natural drive to be the best. Invite cousins, neighbors, or teammates, and watch the energy multiply.

3. Set the Example
Kids don’t always do what we say, but they almost always imitate what we do. If they see you lifting weights, going on walks, or jumping into a few squats in the backyard, they’ll be curious. Let them join in. Make movement a normal part of family life.

It all started with chickens.

“All I wanted to do was get out of tech, relax, and have a few chickens,” says Leslie Fishlock-Corriveau. “I just wanted fresh eggs in the morning.”

But, she adds with a laugh, “Chickens are the gateway drug.”

That is, the chickens led to a goat. Then goats led to donkeys, sheep, pigs, rabbits, turkeys, ducks, and even a tortoise. Before long, it was official: Leslie and her husband Chris Corriveau had a farm.

Nearly a decade ago, Leslie and Chris left the fast-paced technology industry in San Diego, searching for open space for their rescue dogs to roam and a few hens to call their own.

They found this space on seven acres in Driftwood. In 2016, all that stood upon the land was a house, but over the years the former so-called tech nerds have poured their hearts into transforming the property into a thriving regenerative homestead and animal sanctuary. With efficient garden designs, reclaimed water systems, and a focus on minimal waste, the farm—affectionately named Fluffy Bottoms Farm—is now home to hundreds of rescued and rehomed animals living out their days safe, happy, and well-loved.

Tucked away in Dripping Springs’ Founders Park sits a 10,000-square-foot concrete haven where kickflips soar, wheels grind, and young skaters drop in alongside seasoned shredders.

The Dorian Zev Kweller Memorial Skatepark (DZK Skatepark) has become more than just a place to land ollies. It’s a community where groms and veterans alike come together to push skateboarding forward.

What sets DZK apart from other skateparks isn't just its perfectly crafted ramps and rails. It's the culture of mentorship that skatepark advocate Dennis Baldwin has fostered since day one. “I see the older kids being accessible and approachable to little kids,” Baldwin explains. “It's how skateboarding is supposed to work—share what you've learned with others, and everyone progresses.”

In Dripping Springs, youth sports are a vital part of growing up, shaping kids into strong, well-rounded, respectful individuals. Across soccer fields, football stadiums, cheer mats, volleyball courts, and beyond, kids are winning in ways that go well beyond the scoreboard.

For many families, it’s not so much that they chose sports; sports chose them. Jeff and Kara Shaw note that their son seemed born to be an athlete: “As soon as he could walk, he was running.” Youth athletics quickly became a lifestyle defined by weekend tournaments, long drives, and unforgettable friendships. “The sport becomes your life,” they say. “But we wouldn’t change that for the world.”

Often, when we hear the word “cardio,” we think of soul-crushing HIIT sessions or heart-pounding sprints. And while there’s definitely a place for those in a well-rounded program, it is best to spend the majority of our cardio workouts in the “aerobic zone”: easy, steady movement that builds your base without burning you out.
