Seguin’s long-awaited Chickfil-A finally opens this week

Owner, operator shares excitement of new franchise

Cindy Aguirre-Herrera

(Seguin) --- For years, Seguin residents have shared one collective fast-food wish: “When are we getting a Chick-fil-A?” This popular question, for years, has floated around in everyday conversations including social media comment sections and community forums. However, this Thursday, that longtime wish becomes reality as Chickfil-A Seguin officially opens its doors, ushering in not just a new restaurant, but a moment of celebration for a community that has never stopped asking.

Leading the launch is franchise owner and operator Weillen Garduno-Hernandez, who says the timing, location and community aligned perfectly — not just for Seguin, but for her own career journey, which began when she first joined Chick-fil-A as a 16-year-old team member.

“I am actually originally from Georgia – moved to Texas when I was 21. I moved to El Paso so that was just kind of my introduction to Texas and fell in love with Texas, but I did Chickfil-A’s leadership development program and in that time, they put me in West Texas. I learned that West Texas was not for me.

I also really didn’t care for East Texas as much and I spent some time in Central Texas and that is when I was like okay, I love Central Texas. You have the suburbs, and you also have like the city, and you have the best of both worlds which is kind of like the world that I was raised in Georgia but then I knew that Texas is where I want to stay forever. So once this opportunity came up, it was just perfect,” said Garduno-Hernandez.

Guadalupe County declares October Domestic Violence Awareness Month

Cindy Aguirre-Herrera

(Seguin) -- The reality of domestic violence is not being lost in the shadows here in Guadalupe County.

The Guadalupe County Commissioners Court last week unanimously approved a proclamation formally designating October 2025 as Domestic Violence Awareness Month. The proclamation calls on residents to support survivors, recognize the signs of abuse, and stand with organizations working to provide safety and resources to those affected.

Staff from Thriving Hearts Crisis Center, formerly known as the Guadalupe Valley Family Violence Shelter, were among those in attendance for the presentation. During the meeting, Brandon Rossett, awareness and education coordinator for the center, shared a somber reminder how Seguin nor any place across the world are immune to this issue.

Rossett also extended an invitation to the public for Thriving Hearts’ annual candlelight vigil in downtown Seguin.

“Here in Seguin with Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we have had this past year, two victims of domestic violence. Wednesday, 6 p.m. down here at the gazebo, we will be having our annual vigil, and we will be naming off

all the names of the people that have passed away from domestic violence. We invite anybody that wants to attend,” said Rossett.

The vigil will be titled “Thriving Hearts Illuminates Seguin: Their Names Will Not Be Forgotten.” Rossett says attendees will gather to honor the lives lost to domestic violence in Texas, with names read aloud in remembrance as candles are lit in their memory.

During the meeting, Pct. 4 Commissioner Stephen Germann read from the county’s official proclamation. Vigil, pg. 3

Hunting Corner: Seguin to be host site for Whitetailed Deer Workshop for local landowners

(Seguin) -- South-Central Texas landowners looking to improve their deer management skills will have a new opportunity this week. The Texas Wildlife Association (TWA), in partnership with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension, is hosting a comprehensive white-tailed deer workshop this Friday here in Seguin.

The full-day event, running from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Seguin Irma Lewis Outdoor Learning Center, will cover everything from deer ecology and nutritional needs to habitat improvement practices. Attendees will also learn about feral hog and

predator control, as well as the impact of New World screwworms on local wildlife.

The workshop is tailored to both small and large acreage properties, offering practical strategies for managing white-tailed deer in

south-central Texas. Participants will receive lunch and refreshments, and continuing education units (CEUs) are available for those seeking professional development credits. The event is supported by Texas A&M AgriLife Extension, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Plateau Land & Wildlife Management, and Capital Farm Credit.

Landowners and property managers can pre-register or find more information at the Texas Wildlife Association’s website available at www.texas-wildlife.org/events/ landowner-workshop-seguin/.

Vigil, continued.

He affirmed the county’s commitment to working alongside local agencies and community members to break the cycle of violence.

He shared, “Here in this community, Thriving Hearts Crisis Center (formerly Guadalupe Valley Family Violence Shelter) answered 1182 crisis calls and provided 6897 services to survivors from September 2024 to August 2025; and Whereas, women are not the only targets; men, young children and the elderly also are victims, and sadly, emotional scars are often permanent, and domestic violence costs United States’ companies at least $3.5 billion in lost

Chick, continued.

As opening day approaches, she says the welcome that she has received thus far only reaffirms her decision.

“I am so excited. My time in Seguin has been incredible, just like going into town and visiting all the coffee shops and eating in the restaurants, it has been really nice to connect with the community. I know there are some areas in Texas that are not excited for growth, but Seguin is so excited, and everyone has been so welcoming and even being a part of the chamber, everyone has been so kind and so I’m really excited. I’m excited to see all the familiar faces. I’m excited to just connect with the community and do events and get involved,” said GardunoHernandez.

Located along Interstate 10 at 1610 CH Matthies Jr., Garduno-Hernandez says folks will find a uniqueness behind the layout and amenities. She says that’s because this location was intentionally designed with families and community events in mind.

“Our big outdoor patio, we have around eight tables out there. Normally, you get around six or less than that and then we just have so much more room to do events out there and host people. We have a playground. A lot of Chick-fil-A’s don’t have playgrounds right now. So, we have that for the community and then our drive-thru, it’s pretty big and then we are also going to have the Mobile Thru so for guests who don’t want to wait in the drive-thru line, then can order through our app and go through our drive-thru. So, we have that also. We just want to provide as much as we can for our community. I think we have a really unique restaurant, and we can serve everyone coming off of the highway

work time, increased health care costs, higher turnover, and lower productivity.”

Germann further explained how domestic violence affects individuals regardless of race, age, gender, or income level.

“The problems of domestic violence are not confined to any group or groups of people, but cut across all economic, racial and societal barriers, and are supported by societal indifferences,” read Germann.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, please contact the 24/7 crisis hotline at 800-8342033. Free services and resources are avaible. Individuals are also asked to learn more by visiting safeseguin.org.

but also the community inside,” said Garduno-Hernandez.

When it comes to customer service, she says her approach will build on Chick-fil-A’s reputation for “creating a remarkable restaurant experience,” while also including her own personal vision for how the Seguin team will serve its guests.

“Our restaurant vision is to serve high quality food with care and purpose bringing the Seguin community together through every meal. So that is really important – one the community piece but also serving fresh high quality food for the community and also the piece where you bring everyone together and then our team motto which you will probably hear because we made a video on it, and that we will post on social media is ‘We Come to EAT.’ So, E.A.T. stands for Excel with purpose, Act with humility and Thrive relentlessly so that is going to be our team motto as we think through how we are serving guests, how we are serving each other, how we are serving the community. That’s the lens that I want our team to look at things through,” said Garduno-Hernandez.

And although Chick-fil-A is already known for its service, GardunoHernandez says she hopes to instill something extra here in Seguin and that’s a genuine hospitality culture inspired by

her own upbringing.

“I’m very excited. If there is anything that’s important to the way that I was raised in my culture is hospitality so I’m excited to just take the hospitality that I was given – the best experience that I had in hospitality was going to my mom’s house every time I went to Georgia so I’m excited to replicate that here at the restaurant and hopefully, I have been doing that through my time working with Chick-fil-A and then also serve really great food. I’m excited for that. I love our food and so, I’m just excited to get to meet the community as well because hopefully, I will be here a longtime,” said Garduno-Hernandez.

Helping to roll out the new franchise operation will be nearly 90 fully trained employees.

She says opening day will be packed with fun including a chance for guests to snag some free food.

“Dining room will be open. Drive thru will be open. We are also doing a Cows Eat Free event. So, if you wear cow prints, you do get a free entrée and it’s like a sandwich, fries, nuggets – it’s listed on our website. We are just hoping to connect with the community really well. We understand that we might have hiccups. But we just want to make a good impression on the community and just also connect with the community long term as well because that is our goal — to start with serving you guys in the restaurant and bring more events here -- eventually do kids nights and bingo -- so we are looking forward to it,” said Garduno-Hernandez.

Seguin’s new Chick-fil-A restaurant will be open Mondays through Saturdays from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Again, doors officially open at 6:30 a.m. Thursday, Oct. 23.

Health Experts Form New Definition Of Obesity

(Undated) -- Some health experts have come up with a new definition of obesity and it would mean nearly 70 percent of people taking part in a study would be obese. Under the new definition, a person is classified as obese if they have a high Body Mass Index and an elevated reading from one of the newer measures of body fat. A person can also be considered obese if they have a normal BMI but at least two elevated results from the newer measures. These measures include waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio and waist-to-hip ratio which some say more accurately assess people’s body fat. Dozens of organizations including the American Heart Association are endorsing the new definition.

Johnson & Johnson Faces UK Suit Over Alleged Asbestos In Powder

(London) -- Thousands of people in the United Kingdom have filed a joint legal claim estimated at over one-billion-dollars against Johnson & Johnson. The lawsuit claims the New Jersey-based pharmaceutical giant sold baby powder it knew was contaminated with cancer causing asbestos. The claim involves over three-thousand people who developed various forms of cancer and other diseases. The suit is based on internal Johnson & Johnson memos and scientific reports. The company has long fought thousands of similar cases n the U.S. Despite winning some appeals, it agreed last year to pay 700-million-dollars in a national settlement to resolve claims that it misled customers.

California

Law Requires Restaurants To List Major Food Allergies In Menus

(Sacramento, CA) -- California will be the first state in the US to require restaurants with 20 or more locations to list major food allergens on their menus starting in 2026. This includes ingredients like milk, eggs, shellfish, and tree nuts, if present in a menu item. The California Restaurant Association has raised concerns that the law could be costly for businesses and may lead to lawsuits. The nonprofit group Food Allergy Research and Education believes the law, while not perfect, is a significant step toward protecting people with food allergies.
