Copperfield Crime Watch

Dear Copperfield Neighbors,

The media has recently reported information about an incident involving the president of the Copperfield Coalition and defined that organization as a “Copperfield Neighborhood Watch” committee. This has led many to believe that the Copperfield Crime Watch Committee and the Copperfield Coalition are the same entity. This is not true. The Copperfield Crime Watch Committee and the Copperfield Coalition are two separate and distinct entities. The Crime Watch Committee acts as Copperfield residents’ forum for all concerns regarding safety issues within Copperfield. The Crime Watch Committee also manages the Sheriff’s Department contract, which consists of ten officers and one sergeant. The Crime Watch Committee is funded by and reports directly to the Copperfield Community Association. More information can be found at: www.copperfield.org/watch The Copperfield Crime Watch Committee does not support nor condone any of the alleged actions reported in the media. We strongly encourage any resident that witnesses suspicious or illegal behavior to contact the Sheriff’s Department immediately, at 713-221-6000, for nonemergencies and 911 for all emergencies. The Crime Watch Committee looks forward to continuing its mission of providing information about crime prevention to the Copperfield Community and its goal of working together with the community to keep Copperfield a safe and wonderful place to live. Respectfully submitted, Sean Walsh - Chair,Copperfield Crime Watch Committee

Copperfield Place Village (CPV) A WORD FROM THE BOARD

THE CPV ANNUAL BOARD MEETING IS SCHEDULED FOR MAY 20th. THIS IS FOR GENERAL BUSINESS ONLY. Rain gauges were installed in various areas throughout our cul-de-sacs & greenbelt where we have irrigation systems in place. We have had several calls on this issue; however, this is mandatory by the State/County Water District in order for them to monitor water consumption during the hot summer months. If we have another dry summer and water restrictions are imposed, they will be able to establish if we are in violation of these restrictions. We have no control of this issue. We will be painting them so that they don’t look too bad.

(CPV) POOL & PARKS COMMITTEE

The pool opened on Saturday, May 4th. This is a good way to meet and welcome any of our new families that have moved into our neighborhood. New loungers have been approved by the board for our pool area. Rules remain the same as always.

(CPV) TRASH days!!!!!!

Please remember that trash days are now scheduled for Tuesdays and Fridays. Please do not set out garbage over the weekends. Set the trash out the night before trash pick up. Dogs and cats wander the neighborhood during the day and love to get into the trash.

May 2013

(CPV) CRIME WATCH

Roofing, painting, landscaping or any major changes must be approved by the Architectural Review Board. If you are not sure of the deed restrictions or what colors are allowable under the current deed restrictions, please contact SCS Management at 281-463-1777. Many homes are in desperate need of painting or mildew cleaning!

REMINDER: It is imperative that we try to get involved. Keep your ears and eyes open and report any suspicious activity by calling the nonemergency police telephone number, 713-221-6000.

Any modification of the front yard, etc. that is out of the ordinary, should be approved before landscaping with the Architectural Board Committee at SCS. Please trim ALL bushes, trees, shrubs that are planted in the cross corner lots /section of the street! These must be kept trimmed and maintained for a good, safe view of incoming traffic at all times! SCS will be looking closely at all intersections during their drive through to insure that this is in compliance with the deed restrictions. There has been reported instances where palms, trees or large shrubbery is overgrown and not providing a safe view of the cross intersection.

If you are interested in being a volunteer, please call SCS and leave your name and telephone number and someone will be contacting you. We are still in need of block captains. Remember, if you see anything suspicious, call the Non-Emergency number below. Don’t wait until it is too late.

BE PREPARED - GET INVOLVED! CRIMES IN PROGRESS CALL 911 FOR NON EMERGENCY CALL HARRIS COUNTY SHERIFF’S DISPATCHER: 713-221-6000 Please be aware of your surroundings at all times! A reminder… if you see or hear of anything suspicious, CALL THE SHERIFF’S DEPT!

(CPV) LANDSCAPING AND YARDS

Planting of shrubs, palms, etc. on corner lots must be kept trimmed at all times. There has been areas sited where it was difficult to see upcoming vehicles even on the sidewalks, due to the untrimmed shrubs. This is very dangerous and can cause accidents. Please keep yards trimmed. The yard of the Month will begin in may.

(CPV) APPROVALS FOR MODIFICATIONS/ADDITIONS/CHANGES

REMINDER THAT NO CHANGES CAN BE MADE WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL FROM THE ACC COMMITTEE! FORMS NEED TO BE FILLED OUT AND SUBMITTED FOR PRIOR APPROVAL.

(EC) Yard of the Month

As Spring approaches, it is evident that so many of you are working very hard to beautify you yards and as result, beautify our village as well. The Homeowner’s Association thanks you whole heartedly for this and applauds your efforts. Easton Commons is revitalizing the Yard of the Month Program, which we have had in past years. Beginning with the month of May, one home will be designated as the “Yard of the Month” each month through October. No such award will be made for November, but a “Yard of the Month” designee will be chosen for December based on the appearance of seasonal decorations. To be eligible, homeowners must be free of any outstanding deed restriction violations and must not currently be in default or in arrears with respect to any fees owed to the Homeowners Association. “Yard of the Month” designees will be recognized with the traditional “Yard of the Month” sign, which will remain in the yard for the month.

(EC) Trash Pick Up Reminder

Trash pickup days are Tuesdays for trash and Fridays for trash and recycling. Trash receptacles must be stored out of sight. They must be placed at the curb no earlier than the evening before scheduled pick up and removed not later than the day of pick up. This means that bags that are filled and placed on the street after lawn service on Wednesday must be removed until Thursday evening.

(EC) Crime Watch

The Block Captain Program is off and running in Easton Commons. Block captains may be coming around to your doors and introducing themselves as Block Captains. It will not hurt their feelings if you ask for confirmation

May 2013

that they are who they say they are. Once you have become convinced of their authenticity, please cooperate to the extent that keeps you comfortable. Interested persons should send an email to Ken Johnson at admin@ eccrimewatch.com

(EC) Deed Restrictions

Every month SCS Management rides through Easton Commons to check for Deed Restriction violations. The Deed Restrictions set the standard on how our property is taken care of. A well maintained community will impact the property value of your home, which is most likely the largest investment you have. If you have received a letter from SCS regarding a Deed Restriction violation, please take care of the violation as soon as possible. If you are having problems getting an issue resolved, please contact SCS Management to inform them and to schedule a timeline for the correction. If you ignore the letter, additional letters are sent out which can result in additional expenses, which will be added to your account. If you are not sure of the Deed Restrictions, you can access them on www. copperfield.org under Easton Commons.

(EC) HOME IMPROVEMENTS

To make changes to the exterior appearance of your home (i.e. painting, new windows, new roof, new fence, etc.) an ARC Application must be filled out and sent to SCS Management. All exterior changes must be approved via an ARC Application. A copy of this form can be found at www.copperfield.org under Easton Commons. Until the Architectural Review Committee Chair position is filled, the applications will be reviewed by the HOA Board of Directors.

Deed restriction investigators are going to become more vigilant in citing the homes in violation. You are encouraged to report homes that are chronic violators to Graham Management. A link to contact Graham Management is also on the Copperfield website. You will remain anonymous. Your reports are appreciated.

(SC) Going on Vacation?

If you’re going on vacation, follow these guidelines:

• Ask a neighbor or relative pick up your newspapers, mail and in general, anything around your home that could indicate that you are not there. • Set a timer for your lights. • Be sure to set your alarm before you leave. • Fill out a “Vacation Watch” form. You can download the form on the Copperfield.org website. Once the form is completed, it will need to be submitted to the Sheriff’s Department five days before your departure. You may fax the form or drop the form off at the Copperfield Community Center.

(SC) Yard of the Month competitions coming up!

Yard of the Month competitions will be coming up soon! Three homes will be awarded Yard of the Month for each of the following months: June, July, August and September.

Copperfield

Call 1-855-351-GOLD

Each residence that is awarded Yard of the Month will received a $25 gift card from Lowe’s and be able to have the Southcreek Yard of the Month sign displayed in your yard. If you would like to nominate a house for Yard of the Month, contact Ann Liner at Bryne123@aol.com

(SC) Pool Access Cards

You will need a Pool Access Card in order to gain access into the pools. The same access card that you received two years ago will work for years to come. If you need to replace your card or would like an additional card for your family, please contact ACMP at 281-855-9714. There will be a $5 charge to replace a card or to receive any additional cards. Each family has been allotted one card. Family members and guests must be in possession of this card in order to gain entry to the Park Falls and Autumn Laurel pools. For the safety of residents, no one will be allowed to enter the pool area without a working card. Residents who have not paid their homeowners dues and non-residents of Southcreek subdivision are not permitted to use Southcreek community pools. Our pool access system allows us to activate or deactivate a pool card. Pool cards are deactivated if the homeowner is not current on their annual assessment dues. Because it is impossible for you to know who is who, please do not let ANYONE in the pool area without a WORKING card. If you forget your card, please do not put your neighbors in an awkward position by asking them to let you in the pool area. Pool Rules and Pool Hours are posted on the copperfield.org website and posted at each of the pools. Please observe these rules.

CraddockRoofing.com Reroofing Copperfield Since 1984 (SD) Dog Waste Removal

Of all the chores done by pet owners, the least enjoyable is undoubtedly cleaning up their pet’s waste products. An undesirable but necessary task, it is important to dispose of waste promptly and properly. Viruses, bacteria and parasites can be spread in the yard or other areas used for eliminations. Feces attract flies and other insects, damage lawns, make walking hazardous and just plain smells bad. Many communities have laws prohibiting the disposal of animal waste in the garbage. A product made of biodegradable paper is designed for use in your home plumbing. The feces are collected and deposited in the flushable bag and from there it simply goes down the toilet. The bag breaks down without causing any backups in your plumbing. These bags are a good option if you live in a home with limited or no yard space or if your pet eliminates during walks in public areas.

Don’t be discouraged if clean-up chores are left up to you. Unpleasant as it may be, there is some advantage in picking up after your pet as it serves as a valuable health monitor. If your pet eliminates out of your line of sight on a regular basis, cleaning up the waste may be the only time you become aware of a health problem. Stool that is off-color, contains blood or mucus or has turned to diarrhea is a reason to contact your veterinarian. You may also see parasites or foreign material in the feces, another cause for medical attention.

Area References

Happy Mother’s Day!

Many innovative people are sympathetic to your plight and a variety of products have been developed to make the collection process easier. Specially made scoopers eliminate the need for bending and have springloaded traps so they can be easily operated. There are specialized scoops with bag attachments so the feces fall right into a disposable bag. There are even scoop and broom combinations. A visit to your local pet supply store will surprise you with a variety of options. Your Southdown neighbors would greatly appreciate you scooping up your dog’s waste from our parks and common areas.

(SD) NEW TRASH AND RECYCLING DAYS

As of February 1, 2013, backdoor trash pick-up for household items changed to Tuesday and Friday. Recycling will be picked up on Tuesday. A new, larger recycling container should have been delivered to your house. if you did not receive your container, please call WCA at 281-368-8397. Please make sure that only recyclable material is in the recycle container. A list can be found on the website at http://southdownvillage.org/docs/20130128123900. pdf and is also noted on the top of the container. The Board is pleased to report that this change comes as a result of the re-negotiation of the trash collection contract, which includes a reduction in the cost to the owners.

A resident of Southdown Village was robbed at gunpoint on his way home last month. You are encouraged to be aware of your surroundings at all times and report anything that looks strange to you. The parks in Southdown Village are not public but private property with signs prominently displayed. If you see people at the parks that you do not believe live in Southdown Village, please call the Sheriff’s non-emergency line - 713-221-6000 #1 - and report a “suspicious person.” The deputies will verify whether the person/people should be in Southdown or not. You will not be notified unless requested. A residence in Southdown Village was burglarized last month. A GPS and various hand tools were stolen. The thief broke a window to gain entry. Several vehicles parked on the side of the roadway, in Southdown Village were vandalized with vulgar pictures. Some cars have been stolen and burglarized at businesses located in or near Southdown Village. Remember to never leave anything of value in plain sight. Ladies, when at a restaurant, never hang your purse on the chair. This particular crime is on the rise in the area.

To look at area crime, log onto www.crimereports.com - This is a good way to know what is happening in the area. Many times, friends and neighbors send out emails about incidents, which turn out to be false or the details are exaggerated. Crime Watch captains cannot send out emails unless the incident has been confirmed by the Sheriff’s Dept. Sometimes these incidents are under investigation and it is best not to send out mass emails about the suspects. Houston is one of the largest cities in the nation. Always be aware of your surroundings and if you see something suspicious, report it by calling the non-emergency Sheriff’s Department number 713-221-6000. Remember to program this number into your cell phone.

(WC) Vacation Watch Summer is quickly approaching and this means vacations with homeowners needing a reliable, trustworthy person to check on their residence. Remember you can request a Sheriff’s Deputy to stop by and check on your home. Simply follow these instructions: 1) log onto www.Copperfield.org 2) select Westcreek Village 3) next, select Westcreek Crime Watch website and finally 4) select forms - Vacation Watch. After downloading the form, you must mail or fax the form at least 5 days before the watch begins. Other forms available include the Deputy Request form to report traffic problems and park problems, etc. The Alarm System Permit Application and Homeowner’s Insurance Rate Reduction forms are also available for download. A few minutes of your time looking as this website provides lots of valuable information and is worth the effort.

(WC) Crime Prevention Tip

LSC-CyFair

The school year is almost over and area pools open for the weekends beginning in May. Be alert for suspicious activity in the neighborhood, especially around the pool and park areas. While at the pool, do not leave valuables in vulnerable locations - lying on tables, lounge chairs or visibly displayed in parked vehicles. Avoid taking money or credit cards. The theft of personal items can ruin a pleasant day spent at the park or pool.

If you are interested in helping make a difference in our neighborhood and would like to become part of the group, we welcome and encourage your attendance and hope to see you there - there is room for you!

The annual Westcreek Volunteer Project was held on Saturday, April 13th. Thanks to everyone who came out and helped with the planting and renewal projects that were accomplished. There has been a lot of effort made to add color and replace overgrown bushes to make our neighborhood look even nicer than it already is. If you meet or know anyone who took part in this event, please make sure to thank them for their efforts.

Comments, suggestions or questions regarding common areas or other landscape topics are always welcome. Please contact Graham Management Inc. at 281-497-4320 - which will forward your message, request or information to the committee. A member will then get back with you to answer your questions or concerns.

Also, make time to enjoy the wildflowers in full bloom at the end of the sidewalk that terminates behind the Cy-Fair bus corral. These flowers were blooming beautifully in early April and there may likely still be some late bloomers for you to enjoy.

The Yard of the Month selection program is back! Selections resume this month, with the homes reviewed and considered in May announced in the June newsletter. Many residents have been working hard to get their lawn and garden areas in great shape and looking wonderful this spring. Things the committee looks for in determining YOM winners include: • Lawn - Full, green lawn displaying adequate feedings and water. No sign of disease (fungus) or insect damage. Well trimmed and cared for. Clean lines between mulch and lawn areas. • Flower Beds - Fresh mulch, weed-free. Healthy, robust display of flowers to include vibrant colors. • Trees/Shrubs - well trimmed and healthy. • Home - No sign of obvious damage or disrepair like detached gutters, loose electrical wires, broken shutters or severely weathered doors. The Landscape Committee looks forward to listing your property as a selection this season and we encourage everyone to take pride in their yards and enjoy the beauty an attractive and inviting garden and lush lawn can return to us all.

(WC) MAY GARDENING TIPS

• Water only in the early morning hours, before 11:00 AM - avoid watering at night if possible as this will help prevent brown patch and fungus in low areas during wetter periods. • Water twice per week, three times only when conditions are very dry. • If you have an automated irrigation system (timers), check the programs to ensure the frequency and daily times are adjusted as mentioned above. • Prevent over-watering, either in terms of elapsed time as well as frequency. Water deeply, but prevent run-off into streets and storm sewers as this only fuels black mold and mosquito development, not to mention fungus. • Installing sod if necessary is best now through June, as it will readily take if proper water is applied (daily for 1st week, twice weekly thereafter). • De-thatch and core aerate your lawn now through July if your lawn does not begin to exhibit thick, well-aerated traits (the clay patches with little growth should begin to diminish if you have them). Your mower should be set

to the taller cut setting as short-cropped St. Augustine will not perform well in the hotter months. • Apply a 1/4” of compost to actively growing grass. Top dress with peat moss as this will improve soil nutrient and texture conditions. • Applying a warm weather fertilizer with a “weed-and-feed” additive to fight annoying weeds the rains may have allowed to flourish. • Keep an eye out for pests. Chinch bugs and Grub worms will now be active, setting the stage for damage that will not become apparent until it is too late. Treating while in larvae stage is best. FLOWERS/PLANTS • If you really enjoyed the Monarch butterflies that visited our area last fall, then you are encouraged to plant milkweed in your bedding areas as this plant is a favorite of developing butterflies (larvae). These beautiful but hungry guys can really mow down the leaves from these plants, but the reward is more than worth it, as you will be creating your own personal Monarch farm! • For partly sunny to shaded areas where flowers can sometimes be challenged into blooming, try Crinum, Goldenrod (soildago spp.), Ruellia (ruellia brittoniana), Penta (penta lanceolata) or Impatiens are all good choices that do well in our area. • Keep Boxwoods, Holly, Indian Hawthorne and Pittosporum, if used as hedge shrubs, well maintained through frequent trimmings that do not require “scalping” of the bush, as this will be more beneficial visually as well as to the health of the plant. • Remember to protect root systems of all shrubs, trees and flowers with fresh mulch dressed onto well-aerated soil. Avoid heavy, coarse mulch around flower areas. If you have not replaced mulch in your bedding areas now is the time to do so - your plants will appreciate it. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• END OF INDIVIDUAL VILLAGE NEWS •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

The Copperfield chapter of ACL is activity involved within the Copperfield community and supports multiple charities such as CAPS, Langham Creek YMCA, Lemonade Day and Habit for Humanity. The Alpha Charity League is a non-profit, mother/son service league. ACL’s mission is “Fostering mother and son relationships in a philanthropic organization committed to community service and leadership development.” Our members’ common value is that we want to continue to be involved in a meaningful way in our son’s life and share our value of the importance of community service. Members enter during their 7th grade year in an open enrollment process. Any openings in the 8th grade class will be filled on a “first come, first serve” basis. ACL started in February 2010 with members from area private and public middle schools that feed into the two primary high schools in the Memorial area. Our 160 members (7th and 8th grade boys and their Moms) performed 1300+ hours of community service and had a ball! We work with charities that the boys introduced to the League and have developed long-term, in-depth relationships with them so we can continue to interact with our approved Charities in a very meaningful way. ACL currently has 800+ members in the Memorial, Katy, Tomball/The Woodlands, Copperfield and San Antonio Chapters.

CFISD SCHOOL SAFETY

In an effort to keep you all informed regarding the safety of our students and staff, I wanted to update you on how we responded to April 9th’s incident at the Lone Star College - Cy-Fair campus. Because the safety of our students and staff is our number one concern, the CFISD Police Department notified several of our schools located in the vicinity of Lone Star College to take the precautionary measure of entering into “secure the building” mode. We activate this policy when police activity is reported in the area of any of our campuses. All doors are locked and no one is allowed in or out of the building until an “all clear” is given. At 1:50 PM, CFISD Police Chief Alan Bragg reported that our schools were given the “all clear” and were free to return to normal operations and a safe dismissal. We are committed to protecting our children and our personnel and are confident in the emergency operations that we have in place. The immediate response by our schools demonstrates how important their safety is to us. Sincerely, Mark Henry Ed.D, Superintendent of Schools

CFEF TRUSTEE ESTABLISHES ENDOWMENT IN HONOR OF MALALA YOUSAFZAI

Long-term supporter and current Trustee, Ed Station, recently made a $20,000 endowment to Cy-Fair Educational Foundation in Honor of Malala Yousafzai. The endowment will be used to help female students in the CyFair ISD further their education.

• Interior - Exterior Your home is an expensive investment! Painting beautifies & preserves that investment!

The Vitelli Law Firm Attorney and Mediator

Station was moved by the 15-year-old, Pakistani school-girl’s advocacy efforts for female education and wanted to do something locally in her honor. Malala, who has been fighting for the right for her peers to receive an education since she was just 11 years old, was gunned down in October 2012 by the Taliban on her way home from school near the Afghan border. She was shot in the head and neck as punishment for attending school despite Taliban orders that all girls should quit and writing about her experience on a BBC Blog. Suffering a fractured skull, which required inpatient treatment over the last three months, Malala was recently released from a hospital in Birmingham, England. She will require long-term rehabilitation and cranial reconstructive surgery. Malala is still a target of the Taliban. “Malala Yousafzai is my hero,” said Ed Station. “She believed in something so passionately at such a young age that she would be willing to put her own life at risk. It reminded me of American Lt. Jeremy Ray who was killed guarding a council meeting while serving in the military. Malala is the reason why our brave men and women, like Jeremy Ray, serve in other countries. They fight to protect the rights of all human beings. They put their own lives at risk, not for oil or land, but in order to protect people who cannot protect themselves.”

Ed lives in League City but supports the Cy-Fair Educational Foundation because of the many hard-working people who care passionately about education for children who make up the school district. “A college degree is powerful and can open up so many doors for people. I want young female students here to know who Malala is and what she is fighting so hard to accomplish for everyone,” said Ed.

CYPRESS FALLS HIGH SCHOOL CHOIR

Bella Donna: I look pretty sad, don’t I? Well, I have to tell you, I have had a hard 6 months. I was lost and had been lost for quite awhile. I was really hungry, tired and lonely. I am still very young, only about a year and a half, at least that is what they tell me. I was told there is someone out there that wants to love and care for me the rest of my life. Could that person be you? I am ready to love and care for you for the rest of my life. Are you athletic? Well, so am I! Please take me on long walks or even better, let’s go for run!

Congratulations to our premier singers! Vocalists that participated in tryouts and made the All Area choir are: Abi Amadin and Alicia McCormick. Making All Area choir and advancing to All State choir are: Thomas Kang, Lauren Lafferty, Marguerite Lavin, Evan Moynihan and Jordan Svehla. We are proud or you and celebrate your accomplishment with you! Our Acapella and Mens choir clinics for UIL were a success, UIL on the 15th of April carried us through each portion with flying colors! Great job choirs! Following each clinic, our young men and women enjoyed an ice cream treat and the men feasted on hot dogs! Thank you to our fabulous volunteers for your help and our awesome executive Board members for providing these post clinic treats. You guys rock! Florida was the destination for our Acapella choirs spring trip April 27th - 30th. They participated in a special voice workshop followed by fun and frolic at all the theme parks. Thank you so much to our fearless leaders, Deidre Douglas and Matt Perez. Without your tireless efforts of training, fundraising, planning and corralling our members, this trip would not have been reality. Everyone will be forever touched by their time together with memories that will last them a lifetime. I believe one would have a hard time determining who had the most fun, the adult chaperones or the students! May 7th is our final concert for this school year. We will bid farewell to our seniors with songs in our hearts. The Executive Board will be awarding scholarships and awards at the culmination of the performance. The end of year banquet will be held at Northwest Forrest again this year on May 17th. A Masquerade Ball will be the fare! Dining and dancing in our finery will liven the festivities. Our gracious student Board will present an encompassing power point highlighting togetherness of the choirs over this school year. The past members will present the incoming Board, which have proudly stepped up to volunteer and add their leadership for next year. Thank you to Sandra Greer for heading up this momentous event. Also in May, the 24th will be the Spring Trip for the rest of the choir members: Schlitterbahn! They will board buses and drive to New Braunfels for a fun filled day of splashing and relaxing. This will be continued fun, as they will be fresh off their lock in social the previous night! Whew! Action packed and full of song! A musical endeavor unfolds as we experience and grow! GO EAGLE CHOIR!!!!

Scouts

GIRL SCOUTS OF SAN JACINTO COUNCIL COPPER CORNERS SERVICE UNIT

April brought two fun events for the Copper Corners Service Unit. On March 20th, Junior Girl Scout Troop 16257 invited all our Brownie Girl Scouts to “Jammin’ Jammies” Brownie Day. Girls who attended wore their pajamas and bathrobes for an exciting morning of songs, games and crafts. The event was planned by the Junior Girl Scouts, who also led the individual sessions. The service project for the event was collecting non-perishable foods for our host church’s food pantry. It was a lot of fun for all who attended! Troop 16257 and their leaders worked very hard to make this a great event! On April 28th, the “Spring Fling” Daisy event helped our youngest Girl Scouts learn about gardening and having a Girl Scout good time! The girls also took home a very special craft and brought items to make “birthday in a box” boxes (and bags) for Cypress Assistance Ministries. Thanks to Diane Massie and Senior troop 16043 for an active and fun afternoon! May for Copper Corners Girl Scouts brings a “Bridging” event for those troops moving to the next Girl Scout level. It is a tradition to walk across a small wooden bridge and exchange a Girl Scout hand shake with a sister Scout from your new level. It is also a chance to wear that new uniform or at least the new vest or sash! It is one of those occasions that make leaders and parents misty-eyed, especially as we close the evening with a Friendship Circle and sing “Make New Friends.” We would especially like to congratulate our graduating Ambassadors. We are so proud of you all!

Girl Scout troop 16239 shows off their Easter crafts! This Junior Girl Scout troop plans their own meetings and activities (with some help from their leaders). Each girl has been acquiring leadership and organizational skills by being in charge of a particular meeting, this year.

May 2013

Many girls from Copper Corners will be continuing their Girl Scout experience at Girl Scout Camp. San Jacinto Council offers resident, day and twilight camps with many opportunities for all Girl Scout levels. Camp means meeting new friends from around Houston or around the world! Whether it is your first time to paddle a canoe, go through the “people washer” or dance the “cottoneyed Joe,” there is always something new to learn and do at camp.

“I’m In PAIN” Can Chiropractic Help ME ? We are often asked, “What’s the best way of finding out whether or not a doctor of chiropractic can help my problem?” We believe the answer can be found in a complete chiropractic consultation and examination, including x-rays. And to help find out for sure, we will do a complete consultation and examination, including x-rays, if necessary, (procedures that normally cost $187.00 or more) for $25.00. We will make this special program available through May. The only exception to the offer involves personal injury cases (workers’ compensation and auto accidents) in which there is no charge directly to the patient.

Houston Fire Fighters Making Houston the City with the Biggest Heart

Houston Professional Fire Fighters Local #341 will continue their annual Fillthe-Boot fundraising campaign for the Muscular Dystrophy Association on Saturday, May 11, 2013 during the hours of 10 AM and 2 PM. Fire Fighters will be out in the community collecting funds for the campaign. Houston Professional Fire Fighters Local #341 has been the #1 department in the country for 8 out of the last 10 years, raising more than $6.8 million during that time and making Houston the city with the biggest heart. The Fire Fighters rely on support and donations from the community for the success of the campaign. The Fill-the-Boot campaign takes place throughout the United States annually and has been raising money for families served by MDA for more than 50 years. Proceeds raised during the street-side campaign will help support MDA services and research programs, including MDA’s outpatient clinics at Texas Children’s Hospital and The Methodist Neurological Institute. Money raised from Fill-the-Boot also sends young people ages 6-17 to MDA summer camp, held in Burton, Texas. For more information, please contact MDA Director of Business Development Carrie Dalton at 281-787-9416 or cdalton@mdausa.org

Hosting a foreign exchange student is easier than you may think

During the 2012-2013 school year, students from all across the world will have the opportunity to travel to Houston and surrounding communities to spend the entire school year in the United States, learning and working with American Families. In order for the students to come to the U.S. they must have proper host families lined up. Now is a crucial time of year for the Ayusa program as local staff coordinators to find local host families for the upcoming school year.

The host families have to be interested in it for the right reasons, the cultural exchange of learning from them and them learning from us. It’s the language, the cooking, the music, the food. The host family has to be genuinely interested.

With the current school year quickly coming to an end Ayusa’s local staff is busy looking for families for students for the 2013-2014 school year. Many families are needed and with the schools having deadlines and limits for foreign exchange students the earlier the better. It also gives the families and students time to get to know each other via skype, facebook, etc. while waiting for their year abroad to start. Please contact Heather Wells by email ayusakaty@gmail.com or by phone 281-770-3414.

Libraries & Parks

There are not many strict requirements that need to be met to host a student.

There are a few basic requirements, of course. Anyone older than 25 and can provide food and shelter for a student fulfills the requirements of being a host family. There is a background check, reference check and an interview. Background checks have to be done on everyone over 18 living in the home.

Expires 5/31/13

Once the host families and students are matched, Ayusa stays involved by monthly contacts with the families, students and quarterly contacts with the schools. Ayusa coordinators also handle the host family orientations and the student orientations. Group activities, such as community service and seeing things with the group of exchange students is also arrange throughout their academic year.

The Ayusa program is celebrating its 30th year this year and is responsible for more than 60,000 students from 75 different countries spending the school year in the United States.

The most important thing is that those who host students are doing so for the right reason; providing a loving experience and an exposure to American culture.

To find out more please email CCM at jsimpson@cypresscalling. com or come check out our website www.cypresscalling.com for more info. If you are already part of a Bunco group and would consider playing twice a year for Bunco for Babies, we would love to talk to you about how this works. It is a great way for your group to give back to the community.

GIVE AN HOUR™ NETWORK Provides Free Counseling to Troops and Families

Since September 11, 2001, 1.8 million troops have been deployed in Afghanistan, Iraq and the Persian Gulf, with 17 percent of returning troops suffering traumatic brain injuries or post-traumatic stress disorder. Given the military culture’s emphasis on confidence, strength and bravery, many service members are reluctant to expose personal vulnerabilities to professional counselors. Give an Hour™ provides services that are separate from the military establishment, offering options to service members who might otherwise fail to seek or receive appropriate care.
