The Harris County Sheriff’s Office participates in the CrimeReports.com system. See Something, Say Something!! As a reminder, it is critical to be able to recognize something that is out of the ordinary. Although many residents don’t know all their neighbors, they usually know a few. They also become familiar with patterns of living, like when people leave for work, the cars normally seen in a driveway, etc. It is these patterns that become what we consider “normal.” Whenever we see something that is not normal, it should warrant our attention. It may be a vehicle parked in a driveway or street, it may be someone walking on the street from house to house or it may even look like someone who is working on a project. If anything looks suspicious, call the Sheriff (713-221-6000). If someone knocks on your door, make certain you know who it is, before you open the door, if it sounds out of the ordinary, call the Sheriff. If you in any way think something may be suspicious, call it in to the Sheriff (713-221-6000)! Please continue to call in any and all suspicious activity you observe at any time, to the Sheriff’s Office non-emergency number at 713-2216000 (Option 1 for dispatch). For life threatening emergencies, call 911.
Copperfield Place Village (CPV) A WORD FROM THE BOARD
Special thanks to all homeowners who have taken pride in their properties by keeping their yards groomed, their homes painted and maintained. This has contributed to the consistency of our stability on property values. We have been able to maintain this in the past years in spite of the market swings. Our Village looks great!
(CPV) POOL & PARKS COMMITTEE
The pool is now open on Tuesdays thru Sundays. On holidays, the pool will also be opened on Mondays. The pool party was held on May 4th and we did not have the turn out we had planned. We feel that it was probably because it was colder than desired to be swimming this year and also, there were several celebrations and festivities being held in the Houston area on this weekend or homeowners did not read the card mailed out with the announcement. Please read mail sent in from CPV and do not dispose of it without reading. The Copperfield Bulletin also has a write up of upcoming events.

(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. If you are trimming your trees, remember that the limbs must be bundled in 4 foot sections or they will not be picked up by the trash service.
(CPV) CRIME WATCH
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. 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.

(CPV) DEED RESTRICTIONS
PARKING & DEED RESTRICTION VIOLATIONS There have been several citations against homeowners with inoperable vehicles on their driveway. Inoperable vehicles cannot be parked in any one place longer than 24 hrs. It is allowable to park your vehicle in the street; however, DO NOT park it in such a way that emergency vehicles cannot drive through or block wheelchair accessibility! Fire trucks are not able to get through when vehicles are parked on BOTH sides of the street and it becomes too narrow. Some homeowners are parking at the end of the cul-de-sac’s and not allowing people access to get their mail. These vehicles can and will be towed in an emergency at homeowners expense.

Planting of shrubs, palms, etc. on corner lots must be kept trimmed at all times. There have 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. Summer is here, please keep yards trimmed.
(CPV) YARD OF THE MONTH
The yard of the month will begin in June instead of May as previously mentioned. It will be from May thru September. Any unusual landscaping or planting of trees in the front yard must be approved by the Architectural Committee. Please contact SCS for information on this.

(EC) YARD OF THE MONTH
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.

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 that they are who they say they are. Once you have become convinced of

(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.

GARBAGE CANS MUST BE STORED OUT OF SIGHT! It is a violation of deed restrictions to leave cans in view on non-garbage pick-up days.

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.

(SC) TRASH PICKUP
In Southcreek our trash is picked up on Tuesdays and Fridays. Southcreek has backdoor pickup. This means that our trashcans may be placed at the back of our driveway. We do not have to have our trashcans at the curb. Big items such as yard clippings and tree branches should be placed at the curb. Our deed restrictions state that all trash, including grass clippings cannot be on the curb until 6 PM the night before pickup and your trashcans must be picked up from the curb by 6 PM the day of pickup. So… you cannot have trash on the curb until Monday and Thursday nights until 6 PM and everything must be removed from the curb by 6 PM on Tuesdays and Fridays. This includes any bags that contain lawn clippings. If you have a lawn service, have them place the bags behind your fence and not leave the clippings on the curb. Our recycling day is Tuesday. Please have your recycling bin at the curb by 7 AM on Tuesdays. Please pick up your recycling by 6 PM on Tuesdays to comply with our deed restrictions.

(SD) FAMILY ROAD TRIPS
As parents or grandparents, you might be thinking about hitting the highway for a family road trip this summer. Destination? Anywhere but here. It’s an exciting prospect for kids, but it’s also loaded with difficulties, including sudden back-seat fights and frequent retreats to the iPod/iPad zone. Kids think road trips are cool, at least in theory. The mere suggestion that the family might be heading out on a weeklong odyssey usually ignites serious excitement. As soon as the wheels roll, of course, the anticipation instantly morphs into “Are we there yet?” The challenge parents and/or grandparents face is to keep the excitement and sense of wonder alive, even on the long, potentially boring stretches. PLAN AHEAD Think up some family lore. Think of your road trip as a time to share some “family lore.” Every family has its own oral history and road trips offer lots of together time, making them ideal occasions for storytelling. The “that’s my car” game might sound silly, but children love to tell stories about what it would be like to drive a big truck or tricked out SUV. Brush up on your history and geology. Another gift you can give your children is a basic appreciation for the history and geology of the areas you travel through. Even if they grumble, squirm and roll their eyes, they’ll listen. Go low-tech. DVD players, iPods and other electronic gadgets should stay stowed away until all conversations are over. If these devices are used too often on a road trip, you might as well stay home. Nothing insulates people from their surroundings better than ear buds and a video screen. Take electronic gear along if you must, but limit its use if you want to create lasting road trip memories. GET READY! Hold a family planning session. Get a big map and plenty of highlighter markers and then talk about the cool places that would appeal to all members

Pack a Car Kit for each child. Choose age-appropriate items including crayons or markers, pads of paper, bandanas, personal travel pillows, games, small toys, a few treats and the first day’s “travel allowance.” Travel allowances allow kids to shop in gift stores and tourist traps without begging for money at every stop. Maps of your route are also good for children old enough to read them. They can trace their progress, learn to navigate and even stop asking “Are we there yet?” quite as often. Put everything in a bag or other container that the child can also use to hold souvenirs, interesting finds and so on - nylon lunch bags or small daypacks work well. Let the children know that they’ll be getting their Car Kits the day you leave home. That will give them one more thing to look forward to and you won’t have any trouble at all getting them out of bed. You can add to the Car Kits as the trip progresses, giving the kids a little something to look forward to each morning. Pack electronic devices. Consider a portable DVD player, GPS receiver and audio books. Electronic entertainment devices can be helpful if you’re stuck in a traffic jam or you’ve exhausted all other options. Audio books are a great way to be entertained and yet remain alert and focused on the tasks of driving. Pack good eats. Though the kids may argue this point, it is not necessary to stop at every fast-food joint along the way. In fact, it is possible to get good nutrition on the road. Make sure everyone drinks twice as much water as they might at home. Take a good cooler along and eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. GO! Eat and greet. Eat in unusual local restaurants at least sometimes and make a point of speaking with locals or other travelers. Keep it fun! Avoid vacationing at the same hectic pace as you live at home. A relaxing pace will be remembered more fondly than an overly ambitious one. Take the advice of a local or get off the highway at an unplanned exit and see what is to be found around the next bend. Drive fewer hours and spend more time lounging around the motel pool. By allowing time for serendipity, you will re-capture the wonder of the road trip adventure. Got toddlers? Roadtrippers who are younger than five years old can sometimes present additional challenges. Consider organizing the traveling day so that you reach the motel after 8:00 PM, when the children are likely to fall asleep more easily. Pool time can be done in the morning. Spend the extra money to get as comfortable a car seat as possible. Plan to stop every two hours and let the little guys run, play and blow off as much energy as possible.

Make a trip clipboard. If you don’t have a car with voice-controlled navigation, consider creating a trip clipboard to hold printed directions to the motels where you plan to stay; these are especially handy if you should reach a city after dark. You can also include directions and information about specific sites and restaurants that you’re planning to see. Check out your vehicle. Make sure your vehicle is reliable and ready to go. Of special importance is a check of the tires, coolant and engine oil.

of the trip. Gather information about your route from guidebooks and the Internet. Discuss the scope of each traveling day, including how much time in the car and how much spent sightseeing and hanging out by the pool. Consider making each child responsible for one day’s stopping places and restaurants. Including everyone in the planning process invests everyone in the trip and helps ensure a fun adventure for all. One of the most important topics to cover in the planning session is how often the kids will be able to rotate into the front seat. Make the right front seat, the “official navigator’s seat” and whoever is sitting there is designated as being “in charge” (at least for a few moments). The real treat is that it is much easier to see from the front seat and gets everyone involved. Of course, very young children should not be in the front seats because of the inherent air bag dangers.

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. RECYCLING The recycling day in Southdown Village has changed to Tuesday. Trash and recycling bins must be stored out of view until the evening before trash day.

WESTCREEK NEW RECYCLING BINS
A question was asked at the annual meeting regarding obtaining new recycling bins. This option was offered to the community when the trash contract was renegotiated and Westcreek Village opted not to obligate all owners to that cost; however you can still purchase one if you would like to. The only container they have for sale is one with wheels, which is $52. You can call customer service at 281-368-8397 to purchase or for more information.

(WC) BE THE EYES & EARS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD Sgt. Breaux of the Harris County Sheriff’s Dept., who serves our community, addressed the Westcreek homeowners at the annual HOA meeting on May 7th. His target message was that the key to an effective crime watch program is to communicate - simply knowing your neighbors and talking. Neighbors are the best defense against crime. Since the contract deputies cover a large area, it is essential that if you see something suspicious, say something by calling the Sheriff’s Department’s non-emergency number at 713-221-600 (#1). Neighbors can recognize suspicious, strange vehicles parked in a driveway or yard/workmen who are not a regular occurrence. Sgt. Breaux provided several true stories where the actions of a Copperfield area neighbor or community member who called in something suspicious resulted in the arrest of individuals committing criminal acts. Sgt. Breaux reported there has been a tremendous decrease in the burglaries of motor vehicles once people began locking their vehicles and removing valuables. He also provided information and recommended the iWatchHarris County program which is “a secure and anonymous mobile application that enables citizens to turn in tips, images and videos about crimes and suspicious activities directly to law enforcement from almost any mobile phone or PC.” For more information, log onto www. iwatchharriscounty.com.
(WC) SPEEDING AND RUNNING OF STOP SIGNS
At the request of community members, Sgt. Breaux reassured residents the deputies are patrolling the area and issuing traffic citations to reduce those who continue to violate the law by speeding and running stop signs. The purpose of the initiative is not only to enforce the traffic laws, but more importantly, to make our streets safer for all.

(WC) WCWC CHAIR REPORT
Larry Berger, chairman of the Westcreek Crime Watch Committee reported the cost of cleaning graffiti has decreased from $5,099.70 in 2008 to $300 in 2013 (through April). Let’s continue this reduction by once again being the eyes of the neighborhood. Report all suspicious behavior, especially around peak times - summer breaks and in the fall during the week of Langham Creek High School’s Jr./Sr. wars. The committee is planning the annual National Night Out (NNO) parties held the first Tuesday in October. There were 8 parties in 2012 with 343 neighbors participating. Currently, donations are being collected to serve as door prizes to promote attendance. If you would like more information about NNO in Westcreek, you would like to donate an item for NNO or you would to serve as a block captain, please contact Larry Berger at larry.berger@sug.com. Larry also thanked Bill Schindler, Virginia Duffy, Janet Gingell, Rollin Rocraft and Roxanne Tiner for serving on this committee.
WESTCREEK LANDSCAPE COMMITTEE
Meetings - 2nd Monday of every month @ 6:30 PM Location - Forest Heights Pool Meeting Room The Westcreek Landscape Committee meets on the 2nd Monday every month. 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! 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.
(WC) ANNOUNCEMENT
Many of you may be aware that we are experiencing higher than normal level of fleas, ticks and mosquitoes due to recent rains experienced in April and May. To combat this invasion, Westcreek will be asking residents to treat their properties the weekend of June 8th/9th. Having as many people treat at the same time will greatly increase the level of effectiveness the treatments provide, as these pest are highly mobile and can move quickly to other areas not treated, trying to survive. Please check the Hudson Oaks and Forest Heights marquis for additional information or if date changes are announced. Please take care to properly and adequately secure your recycle bin contents each Tuesday morning, especially if you place the bin out the night before - on days when the wind is blowing paper, plastic bottles and magazines can blow out and litter the streets, as well as other homeowners’ yards.
(WC) YARD OF THE MONTH
The Yard of the Month selection program resumed in April and as usual, Westcreek residents rose to the occasion in taking pride in their yards. Several properties have displayed very fine examples worthy of YOM consideration. May winners are as follows: 1st - 7723 Colony Point Court 2nd - 7515 Granite Ridge Lane 3rd - 7914 Ivy Trail Court There were MANY homes displaying outstanding displays of color, upkeep and attention to detail - the decision on which homes to honor was tough! Great job to all of the selected yards!

(WC) JUNE GARDENING TIPS
LAWN CARE With temperatures at night staying warm, the green for nearly all of us has returned to our lawns. Water application is now more important. However, here are some reminders that will prevent future issues, not to mention keep us all environmentally responsible: • 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, 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 (no clay patches with little growth). Your mower should be set to the taller cut setting as short-cropped St. Augustine will not perform well in the hotter months. • Applying a summer fertilizer tailored for St. Augustine mid-June will achieve favorable results if applied at a rate set forth by the manufacturer. • 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.
(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. SUMMER GARDEN • Summer garden plantings from the spring (tomatoes, okra, radish, squash, beans, cucumbers and watermelon) should all be maturing nicely, if maintained and tended to adequately since planting back in April.

TCS STUDENT AUTHORS Each year the four year olds through the eighth grade students at Texas Christian School become published authors! Students collaborated to write and illustrate their very own hardbound books. The students of Texas Christian School are celebrating the publication of their books in a big way. While writing their books, the students learned that hard work really does pays off and that writing is a lot of work. Students went through the entire process from first rough draft, many revisions and finally the publication process where they now own their very own book as the author. Texas Christian’s writing program is designed to motivate students to learn through publishing by enabling students to write, illustrate and publish full-color,

Elisa Kendall won the 1A State Title, while Afton Otwell and Bao Truong tied for 5th place in each of their divisions. The combined points earned by Elisa and Afton allowed Texas Christian High School to place 3rd over all in the 1A Girls Division. TCS could not be more proud of the team’s accomplishment! Way to go Tigers!!! TCS SENIOR HEADING FOR THE MARINES Looking for adventure and a challenge that could test every fiber of physical strength and moral standing sounds like a Tom Clancy novel. It is in fact, the reallife story of Connor Lyttle, a senior at Texas Christian High School. Echoed by his favorite Bible verse, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me,” (Philippians 4:13); Connor loves a challenge that will stretch him and help him grow. Connor’s athletic abilities and leadership skills allowed him to excel on Texas Christian’s football, basketball and baseball teams; making the playoffs in two of the three team sports. True to his character, Connor is preparing to take on his next life challenge by joining the ranks of the United States Marine Corps. He is currently involved in a rigorous physical training program to make his transition into the demanding Marine Corps world as smooth as possible.

Youth Outreach
CYPRESS CHRISTIAN STUDENTS SERVE AT-RISK YOUTH Twenty-six CCS students committed their Saturday to spend time with at-risk youth in the Houston area. They played games, performed a skit, led worship and shared a verse from 1 Timothy 4:12 with the message how God gives direction for young people to make a difference in His Kingdom by being an example in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity. God really used the CCS students to make heart connections with abused and neglected youth and to share God’s love in a fun and unique way. CYPRESS CHRISTIAN RENAISSANCE AND REFORMATION FESTIVAL Fifth graders participated in the 2013 Cypress Christian Annual Renaissance and Reformation Festival. Students introduced their guests to historical characters such as John Wycliffe, Martin Luther and leaders of the Reformation who gave their lives to ensure the Bible was available to all.

CCS WARRIOR TRAVIS CHAFFIN PASSES AWAY CCS Warrior Travis Chaffin passed away on Saturday, May 4th. Travis was a junior at CCS, a great friend to his classmates, an excellent student, a standout member of the baseball team and a godly role model for his friends and family members. Travis was always thinking about others and how he could serve them. His personal goal was to always honor the Lord in his actions. Travis wrote these words not long before his passing...”I want to be a role model for others. I want my actions in school, on the baseball field and elsewhere to display Christ in my life.” In his time at CCS, Travis did indeed touch many lives with the love of Christ. He placed his trust and hope in Jesus Christ and while we grieve his loss, we are comforted in knowing he is now safely home with his Lord. On Sunday, May 5th, the CCS gym was filled with over 500 people as CCS students and families came together with the Chaffin family to meet, to grieve, to pray and to comfort each other. On Monday morning, the school day began with a special assembly for secondary students in remembrance of Travis. Students were reminded that through Jesus Christ, while we grieve, we do not grieve as those who have no hope. Instead, we can find the strength to continue, even while we process the loss of such a treasured friend.

CY-FAIR EDUCATORS HONORED AT TEACHER APPRECIATION EVENT IN FAIRFIELD
Students nominate teachers who have had the most positive influence in their lives. On the morning of Saturday, April 13th, over 50 Cy-Fair educators representing 15 schools were honored at a teacher appreciation brunch for their excellence in teaching. The event was sponsored by two Fairfield area congregations of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and held in their newly-completed building on Fairfield Place Drive.
POOLS, HARDSCAPES & LANDSCAPES
“This is actually the first event we’ve hosted in our new meetinghouse,” said Chris Crawford, bishop of one of the congregations. “We couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than to give back to those who so selflessly give every day to our most prized possessions, our children.”

Stirling D. Pack, Jr. was the keynote speaker. He told the teachers, “These young students under your care have chosen you as their outstanding teachers and mentors in all of the respective schools represented here today. We are assembled to honor you for what you do every day as teachers and administrators, making a lasting impression on their lives.” Pack noted that directing, mentoring and encouraging children to fully reach their innate potential is both a great quest and significant challenge to those who teach. Another speaker, Avery Smith, a junior at Cy-Ranch High School, said, “I invited Coach Holly Bowman because she has formed me to be a hard worker, dedicated teammate and student. She has helped me through some of my hardest classes. And as my swim coach, of course, she’s also taught me so much about swimming and being a great coach. Both of those skills have helped me become a better swimmer and a better teacher myself when I give swim lessons to younger children.”
Copperfield
Bowman said, “I am honored to be invited here today, especially by someone like Avery, who is a motivator to me. I feel very encouraged by what I’ve heard at this event. I’ve even received some inspiration today. I’ve actually thought of a new way to approach a current challenge by being more loving and ready to help.” Dean Fantasia, a first grader at Ault Elementary, also spoke. He chose Lillian Cunningham as his special teacher and directed all of his remarks at the podium to her. “Dean has touched my heart today,” Cunningham said. “He just said everything any teacher would love to hear! I feel appreciated and loved.” “This has been a wonderful event,” said Ashley Clayburn, Ed.D., assistant superintendent of school improvement and accountability in Cy-Fair I.S.D. She attended the brunch on behalf of Dr. Mark Henry, superintendent. “We thank you for taking the time to honor our teachers for the outstanding work they do each and every day. I know the teachers and students will remember this celebration for a long time to come!” Avery Smith summed up the collective feelings of all assembled when she concluded her talk by saying, “With my fellow students, we thank you for making the difference, for shaping our lives and for unlocking our future opportunities.”
MESSAGES FROM THE SUPERINTENDANT EVERY CHILD MATTERS
The child was only a couple weeks shy of his 10 birthday when he passed away, no longer able to fight the brain tumors and their devastating effects on his body. There are a number of ways I could describe this young man. He was bright. He was full of energy. He was an avid baseball fan. He was a full-faced smile waiting to happen. And as I sat among those celebrating his all-too-short life at his funeral last week, I couldn’t help but think of another important characteristic that defined him. He was a public school student. Before he had even turned 3, the child was receiving special education services from his local public school. The extent of his impairments required continual services from medical personnel, diagnosticians and therapists. The beauty of our public education system is that we do what is necessary for our brightest students, those who are most challenged and everything in between - no questions asked. When our students are not initially successful, we find another way to help them succeed. We do whatever it takes until their needs are met. When the child’s parents first enrolled him in school, they knew he was only expected to live until about 4 or 5 years of age. Even so, the school only sought ways to make his life better. The excellent care, support and love he received from public educators allowed this young man to bless those around him for four more great years. A comparison I often make is that public educators are modern-day missionaries, helping improve the lives of children from all backgrounds. Our teachers are being asked to do more today for our students than ever and our students are leaving our schools with both a quality education and quality role models. Although the child I referenced is no longer with us, the lesson he leaves behind is a valuable one. Every child matters and we will care for each one who walks through our doors.

The heat and sun were just too much. So, I broke the chain and hit the road. I stopped at the office supply store and went on in, but nobody seemed very excited to see me. Thankfully, a kind lady was passing by and offered me a ride. My medical exam, shots and heartworm treatment are behind me now with no lasting damage and I am looking for my real forever family. Call me a love bug – I adore humans in all shapes and sizes. I roll over for tummy rubs and want to snuggle on the couch for movie night. Other dogs are ok, but I would rather have my people close by. Cats are very interesting, and given my lineage, I do want to give chase. Things I love: long walks, rawhide chewies and lots of hugs.

past events and happenings is always a delight, as the students recall fond times throughout their training, performing and enjoyment. May 24th found the school taking over as the all choir lock-in took place. The games they come up with are such a blast and statue is always a favorite. Food consumed by the pound and fun exploding through the evening. Thanks to all who participated, as it all occurs because of you! Schlitterbahn was high school city on the 25th as our students and chaperones, along with some other schools, took over the water city. The cool waters are always so refreshing and the technology of the water runs/coasters is always amazing and enjoyed. Who can go wrong with fun AND sun? It was a quite ride home and no doubt, there were heavy sleepers that night!
FAREWELL SENIORS! CYPRESS FALL HIGH SCHOOL CHOIR
We have had an outstanding year!!! Newsweek magazine noted us as one of the best public high schools in the nation! Most effective in turning out college ready graduates. All of our choirs received “ones,” superior ratings, which no other high school choir has achieved this year. And all due to our fantastic students under the exceptional direction of Mrs. Deidre Douglas and Matt Perez. The choir banquet this year, held at Northwest Forrest Conference Center, was a huge success. Masquerade Ball was the theme on May 17th, as many adorned elaborate masks or displayed their own facial perfection! The students always shine so bright when they dress up. A huge thank you to Sandra Greer for organizing and decorating for the event. It was a magical evening as the exiting student choir board presented their successors; they will no doubt carry on in commanding style. The power point presentation of

Scouts COPPER CORNERS SERVICE UNIT
Copper Corners Service Unit held a Bridging ceremony on May 2nd. Family and friends were present as members of twelve different troops made the change to their next Girl Scouting level. The evening began with a flag ceremony and recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance and the Girl Scout Promise. When each troop came forward, their leaders spoke about the troop’s activities and service projects for the year to the applause of the audience. As each girl’s name was called, she walked across a wooden bridge to be greeted by a sister Girl Scout from her new level. Many of the girls wore their new vests or sashes for the first time. Daisy troops bridging to Brownies were troops 16048, 16171, 16460, 16462, 16465 and 16467. Brownie troops bridging to the Junior level were troops 16407 and 16320. Junior troop 16464 bridged to Cadette Girl Scouts. Cadette troops 16137 and 16170 bridged to Senior Girl Scouts. Senior troop 5131 crossed the bridge to become Ambassador Girl Scouts. We are very proud of all our bridging Girl Scout! Girl Scouts from the Copper Corners Service Unit have been participating in a variety of activities. Brownie troop (now Junior troop) 16320 presented an Earth Day program for our service unit. Troop 16398 reports that they “had a blast” when they visited “Color Me Mine” in Cypress. They would like to thank Wren Hartley for making the day so special. Menchie’s has been a popular destination for field trips. Troops 16172 and 16109 were recent visitors. Troop 16109 discovered that 11 girls could fit in a Menchie’s freezer…they can really claim to have had a “cool” time! National Lemonade Day on May 5th was a troop effort for 16100. They held their troop lemonade stand at a local Kroger. The day is designed to “teach kids the business of business” and encourage the entrepreneurial spirit. Selling Girl Scout cookies also helps develop many business skills. Troop 16464 participated in Geocache at Sheldon Lake State Park. While summer may slow the activities of individual troops, many Girl Scouts participate in resident, day and twilight camps. There are many opportunities to learn new skills and make new friends and it is not too late to sign up! Camp information (and lots of other information!) can be found on the Council website, www.gssjc.org. Girl Scouting is open to all girls ages 5 (must be in kindergarten) to 18 who are willing to live by the Girl Scout Promise and Law. Copper Corners service unit serves girls in the residence areas for Birkes, Fiest and Lowery Elementary schools, Aragon and Labay Middle schools and the corresponding high schools. Home schooled and private school students are always welcome. Girls may join at any level and no previous Scouting experience is required. Don’t forget that many of our most exciting opportunities are available to older girls! It is not too late to join Girl Scouts now! We welcome girl members and adult volunteers. Please contact Dianne Massie at 281-550-9148 (Dianne. massie@att.net) for more information. We would like to thank all our leaders and other volunteers for a great year. Special thanks to our steering committee, Windee Falla, Felicia Ferguson and Donna Fontenot for all their hard work!

UMBRELLA THEATRE COMPANY ANNOUNCES ITS 2013-2014 SEASON!
FOXFINDER by Dawn King. US Amateur Premier - August 15-31, 2013. Finalist for the Susan Smith Blackburn award. William Bloor, a “foxfinder,” arrives at Sam and Judith Covey’s farm to investigate a suspected contamination. He is driven by his education and beliefs to unearth and destroy an animal that threatens man’s civilization and to remain free from its influence himself. As his investigations proceed, the events that follow change the course of all their lives - forever. Dawn King’s play won the 2011 Papatango New Writing Competition (in partnership with London’s Finborough Theatre). A darkly comic exploration of belief, desire and responsibility, set in a world both strange and familiar, from a striking new voice in British theatre. CARNIVAL ROUND THE CENTRAL FIGURE by Diana Amsterdam. Regional Premier - November 7-23, 2013. A wild ride through theatrical terrain that sears the senses and impacts the audience at a visceral place, which also manages to be hilariously funny and heartbreakingly real in the five core scenes of a young woman’s visit to the death bed of her friend. Her moment of acknowledgment and comfort comes hard in the face of denial, moralizing, insane positive thinking, desperate chit chat and the existential fears we all harbor about the end moments of life - the great mystery. MUSEUM OF DYSFUNCTION IV - December 6-14, 2013. Short plays from 200 writers who submitted from all over the US and were chosen by a panel. Co-produced by Wordsmyth Theatre. ROME by John Harvey - World Premier - March 6-22, 2014. This original script is being written by local playwright, John Harvey, workshopped by designers, musicians and actors, video documented over a year and presented as a collaborative effort as our final play in the season.

HOSTING A FOREIGN EXCHANGE STUDENT IS EASIER THAN YOU MAY THINK
During the 2013-2014 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 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. There are not many strict requirements that need to be met to host a student. 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.

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. 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.

“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 June. 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.

VETERINARY PUBLIC HEALTH DIVISION
HARRIS COUNTY LEASH LAW
Animals that are not properly restrained pose a threat to all our residents. While you may know your pet is friendly, an animal running at someone who is walking by is very scary for that person. Many children are afraid of animals and become frightened, which could result in the child getting hurt trying to avoid the animal.

Veterinary Public Health (formerly called Harris County Animal Control) advises that “All dogs and cats must be kept under restraint while in the unincorporated areas of Harris County, Texas. The custodian of a dog or cat is not authorized to have, harbor or keep any unlicensed dog or cat, nor to allow any dog or cat to become a stray.” Restraint is defined as “the control of a dog or cat under the following circumstances: 1. When it is controlled by a line or leash not more than six (6) feet in length, if the line or leash is held by a human being, who is capable of controlling or governing the dog or cat in question 2. When it is within a fully enclosed vehicle 3. When it is on the premise of the custodian and the animal does not have access to sidewalk or street.” While it may be nice to have your animal out in the yard while you work or play, it is against the law, unless the animal is properly restrained. Let’s all help keep our community a safe and comfortable place for all our residents by being responsible pet owners. This will not only protect anyone who may be walking or bicycling in the area, but also the pet owner who could be held legally responsible or possibly sued for failing to properly restrain their pet.
REMINDER OF HARRIS COUNTY BANNING OF SALE OF ANIMALS ALONG PUBLIC ROADS
In 2007, Harris County moved to ban sales of animals along public roads and parking lots in unincorporated areas. A violation is a Class C misdemeanor which can mean a $500 fine.

AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY RELAY FOR LIFE CY FAIR
We held an All Night walk on April 26, 2013 at Cy-Falls High School. There were 62 teams, with a total of 1,200+ participants, raising $130,000 thus far. The event is made up of teams who set up camp all night to walk. We raise money all year and end with a “carnival type” atmosphere with the profits going to the American Cancer Society. We start the event with the first lap to honor our survivors and their caregivers. We then transition into a luminary lighting ceremony at 9:30 PM where luminary bags are lit and the lights turned out to remember all of those whom we have lost to cancer. We walk all night with music, games, booths, dancing and just plain fun to keep the energy going. We end with a closing ceremony at 7 AM and release balloons in the air at sunrise. It is a beautiful way to “give back” in our fight against cancer. For more information on how to get involved, call Tory DeArmond at 713205-2850. I lost my husband recently to cancer and am doing my part as a volunteer to “make a difference!” Relay For Life Cy-Fair is my choice! The money we raise provides research to fight cancer, free rides to and from chemo/radiation treatment, 24-hour 800 line support, the new HOPE Lodge being built in the medical center to house families of patients going through treatment and so much more!
