Annual Meeting and Elections

2011 Annual Meeting and Elections Watch for the New Date Unfortunately, we did not have a quorum at the November 17th meeting. There are three positions open. However, without a quorum we could not hold an election. A new state law prohibits the Board from appointing the 3 available candidates, so we must attempt to get a quorum and hold the election. The apathy of our neighbors costs us money. We must send out notices and proxies again and have another meeting. This takes money away from funds that keep our parks and common areas maintained. You will receive notice of the rescheduled date. PLEASE RETURN YOUR PROXY OR ATTEND THE RE-SCHEDULED ELECTION.

Annual Homeowners Fees

Santa’s Visit Santa visited Concord Bridge on Saturday, December 17 . He rode through the neighborhood in a horse drawn carriage. Accompanying Santa was two fire trucks and a host of volunteer fire fighters. Candy was thrown to all of the kids, and adults, watching the parade. th

Your annual fees of $370 were due on January 1, 2012 and will be considered past due February 1, 2012. If you did not pay your dues by that date or make payment arrangements, a $50 late fee has been assessed. CONTACT CREST MANAGEMENT IMMEDIATELY. This must be done to avoid accumulating legal fees.

There was an error in the January Crier that stated the dues were $270. However, the statement you received is the correct amount of $370.

On a dark December night, Wendy and Walter Kessler and Jamie and Jesse Giraldo drove through the neighborhood looking at the Christmas decorations. They had the arduous task of choosing nine homes with outstanding Christmas decorations. Pictures of the outstanding decorations are in this issue of the Crier. Our thanks go out to the Kesslers and the Giraldos for taking the time and interest in our neighborhood in order to continue this tradition.

Garage SaleS

The first garage sale of 2012 will be on Saturday, March 3rd. You can post signs at 6:00 AM Saturday morning, but they must be removed by 6:00 pm that day. Our HOA guidelines allow for three garage sales on preset dates. The first Saturdays in March, June and October are reserved for these neighborhood sales. In addition to March 3rd, garage sales can be held on June 2nd and October 6th in 2012.

The board arranges for ads in the Houston Chronicle and the Greensheet and signs are posted at the entrances of the subdivision early that week.

Do you have a monitored alarm system in your home?

If your alarm system is monitored, you need to verify what number they have for police notification. If you pay your water bill to Horsepen Bayou MUD, you need to put Harris County Precinct 5’s emergency number, 281-463-6666. If you are in the MUD 102 district, they will need to notify the Harris County Sheriff’s Department.

Concord Bridge Pet Hotline

Have you lost a pet or found a loose dog or cat? You can contact the Concord Bridge Pet Hotline at 281-468-9414 and on the new Facebook account, Concord Bridge Pet Hotline.

You can use this source to report lost and found animals. This has been a great help in returning lost and found animals to their owners. If you don’t have access to Facebook, you can still call 281-468-9414.

Please note, Harris County requires that all pets be on a leash or confined within your yard.

February 2012

Concord Bridge

Oversize Commercial Vehicles No Overnight Parking Signs are posted at all entrances to Concord Bridge restricting overnight parking for commercial vehicles. A majority of homeowners signed partitions asking for this ruling. Over size commercial vehicles are restricted from parking in Concord Bridge over night. You must move these vehicles to an acceptable and legal parking area outside Concord Bridge or risk receiving a ticket.

It is also against your deed restrictions to park these vehicles in our neighborhood. You not only run the risk of getting a ticket, you could incur fines from the Homeowner’s Association too.

Deed Restrictions

Deed restrictions are in place to maintain continuity within the neighborhood. Without these standards, a home could be left in disrepair or abandoned and could become a plight to our neighborhood. At entrances to the neighborhood, there are signs declaring deed restrictions are strictly enforced and when you purchased the home you were given a copy of the deed restrictions. Please remember, this is a legal document in place to protect the value of your home.

Crest Management handles most of the business transactions for Concord Bridge under the direction of your board of directors. If you don’t understand any correspondence from Crest Management, please call for clarification. The homeowners association pays for all correspondence related to deed restrictions; therefore, duplicate letters cost us additional fees. Do not ignore correspondence from Crest Management!

BERYL RAMSEY AND WAYNE VOSS TO CHAIR GO RED FOR WOMEN LUNCHEON SET FOR FEBRUARY 13, 2012

CEO of Methodist Willowbrook Hospital, Beryl Ramsey, returns to Chair the Go Red For Women Luncheon in partnership with CEO of Methodist West Houston Hospital, Wayne Voss. Together, Ramsey and Voss will serve as Co-Chairs and lead efforts to raise awareness that heart disease remains the number one killer of women, but is often preventable with healthy lifestyle choices.

This year’s luncheon will be held on Monday, Feb. 13th at the Berry Center in Cy-Fair and is expected to draw more than 400 business and community leaders. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn tips on heart disease and stroke prevention from local experts, listen to a heart-warming story of survival from an area resident, participate in interactive breakout displays and shop the “purse-onalities” silent auction. The silent auction is a unique piece of the luncheon that features items representative of the diverse personalities of the community. Purses can be anything from actual handbags to golf bags to briefcases. This year’s auction will include something for everyone!

Melissa Wilson of Fox 26 Morning News will emcee the event and Dr. Valentina Ugolini of Willowbrook Cardiovascular Associates will be the featured medical speaker.

Ramsey and Voss and their team of volunteers have a goal of raising a record-breaking $200,000 to support educational programs that the American Heart Association provides and the life-saving research it funds to reduce the effects of heart disease in women.

Today, only 1 in 5 women believe that heart disease is their greatest health threat. More women die of cardiovascular disease than the next three causes of death combined, including all forms of cancer. Go Red for Women celebrates the energy, passion and power that women can use to band together to wipe out heart disease and stroke.

Houston Family Arts Center

Announces auditions for “The 39 Steps” Houston Family Arts Center is seeking four spirited and committed performers for its upcoming production of “The 39 Steps,” a smash revival adaptation by Patrick Barlow. Ideal performers will be quick learners and passionate players. Improv experience a plus. This show offers an incredible opportunity for performers who are attracted to ferocious play, cunning wit and a love of physical comedy. This is a fast paced comedy and a physically demanding show. Auditioners should be able to endure moderate to high athletic activity.

Auditions for “The 39 Steps,” directed by Tracy Clayton, will take place on Saturday, February 11, 2012, from 10 AM to 2 PM with callbacks on Monday, February 13, 2012, from 7-10 PM at HFAC located in NW Houston at 10760 Grant Road, Houston, TX 77070.

Stark Naked Theatre, Mildred’s Umbrella Theater Company and The Classical Theatre Company Stark Naked Theatre, Mildred’s Umbrella Theater Company and The Classical Theatre Company announce that they moved into the performance space, which was recently Divergence Music & Arts at Spring Street Studios on January 15, 2012.

The space, which the three groups are planning to re-name Studio 101 at Spring Street Studios when they take up occupancy, has been under the direction of Misha Penton as Divergence Music & Arts at Spring St Studios, since early 2011. While they will no longer be in residence at the Spring Street Studios space, Misha and Divergence Vocal Theater will continue to produce new work as a performing arts group. Misha is “.... thrilled that Stark Naked, Mildred’s and CTC will take over the beautiful performance studio at Spring St. and infuse Houston’s growing theater arts scene with their collective vision.”

The goal of Studio 101 at Spring Street Studios will be primarily to provide audience members with a one-stop shop for the highest quality theater Houston has to offer, while allowing the three member organizations to remain true to their distinct artistic visions.

While Mildred’s Umbrella, CTC and Stark Naked will be sharing an artistic home and all of the administrative duties space ownership entails, the three organizations will remain separate entities.

Studio 101 at Spring Street Studios’ inaugural production will be Stark Naked Theatre Company’s Dinner with Friends February 23 - March 11, 2012, while Mildred’s Umbrella’s Dead Man’s Cell Phone, running March 8-24, 2012 will be performed as originally planned at Barnevelder Movement Arts Complex. After this production, Mildred’s Umbrella will begin performing at Spring Street as well, and Classical Theatre Company will join the collective by Summer 2012.

About Mildred’s Umbrella Theater Company: Mildred’s Umbrella Theater Company seeks to challenge both audiences and theatre artists by creating and performing bold, innovative and new theatrical works grounded in the best traditions of the dramatic arts.

About Stark Naked Theatre Company: Stark Naked’s Mission is to develop and support theatrical artists by providing competitive pay; and to develop and promote an aesthetic of acting that is truthful; by producing exciting, cutting-edge, live theatre.

About The Classical Theatre Company: The Classical Theatre Company (CTC) is dedicated to boldly reenvisioning classical drama on the stage, in the community, and in the classroom through engaging and enlightening plays that brings them new life and relevance while maintaining the integrity that the works deserve

CWC Women Serving the Community The Cy-Fair Women’s Club held its first business meeting for the year on January 5th.

On February 2nd, we plan to continue our business meeting and hope to play Bunco if time permits. During the beginning portion of our February meeting we will have Nancie Craft visit with our group to offer us great deals for Rodeo Carnival Tickets.

We are looking forward to visiting with her.

CWC is a service organization that gives back to the community, so all funds raised will go right back to the community in scholarships for graduating high school seniors, at Lone Star College, Cy-Fair and grants to other non-profits in our community, as well.

Membership for the Cy-Fair Women’s Club is open to all ladies in Northwest Houston/ Cypress neighborhoods. Currently we meet the first Thursday of most months at West Houston Church of Christ. Our meetings begin with social time and refreshments at 7:00 PM immediately followed by a program at 7:30 PM. The church is located at the corner of Queenston and West Road.

“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 FEBRUARY. 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.

What Can A Cookie Buy? The Experience of a Lifetime.

The $700 million Girl Scout Cookie Program is the largest girl-led business in the country and generates immeasurable benefits for girls, their councils and communities nationwide. Through the Girl Scout Cookie Program girls develop five essential skills: Goal setting Decision making Money management People skills Business ethics During cookie activities, girls are members of a team working towards a common goal, with each girl striving to do her best. Girls set cookie goals to support their chosen activities for the year, like funding community service projects, attending summer camp or even traveling. So when your local Girl Scouts come calling with this year’s best-selling cookies, remember you’re saying hello to tomorrow’s business leaders.
