GARDEN TIPS FOR JULY
• Plant fall flowering annuals where your spring annuals have bloomed out. Set our seeds like zinnia, marigold, cosmos, petunia and portulaca so you’ll have color until frost. Don’t let seedlings dry out. • In summer, prune roses to keep them in shape. Continue black spot and insect treatments. Water 2” once per week. • Remove spent crepe myrtle flowers to prolong bloom production. • Weeds rob plants of valuable water, nutrients--remove them. • Great sun/heat-lovers include coral honeysuckle, coreopsis, lantana, oleanders and hamelia. • Fertilize flowers lightly, if at all; too hot for heavy feedings. • Water your lawn longer but less frequent. Deep water of about 2 - 3” per week forces plant roots to grow down, instead of sideways into sunbaked upper soil levels. Use a bowl in your yard to measure during waterings.

CCS ATHLETE NAMED TAPPS 4A FEMALE ATHLETE OF THE YEAR Senior Dai’ja Coleman received the 2014-2015 TAPPS 4A Female Athlete of the Year Award. She was nominated based on her significant contributions to athletics and for her strong academics. Dai’ja competes on a level few can maintain and is a team leader, encourager and excels in helping her team be the best they can be. With a strong work ethic and desire to do her best, she rises to the occasion no matter the circumstances. While at CCS, Dai’ja earned multiple honors for her work on the basketball court and on the track. She recently placed fourth in Baylor University’s Inaugural Meet for Champions, was named Valiant Warrior and awarded the Will Rhodes Athletic Scholarship. Dai’ja plans to accept one of the multiple offers she has received from colleges to compete in track and field. “We are blessed she has been a part of Cypress Christian School,” says Athletic Director Marsha Martin, “and we are honored that TAPPS selected Dai’ja.” Photo by Jack Potts Photography CCS ATHLETE COMMITS TO PLAY BASEBALL AT LETOURNEAU Senior Ryan Gibbs will join the LeTourneau University Yellowjackets on the baseball field next year. Ryan was the starting catcher for the Warrior TAPPS 3A state championship run in 2014 earning honors in the division. Ryan’s tremendous work ethic helped to earn him the role of captain during his senior year where he led the Warriors into the playoffs at the 4A level. CCS Head Baseball Coach David Swan had this to say about Ryan: “He has been a cornerstone for our program as catcher for the past three seasons and a key factor in our success. He will certainly be missed, but we are very excited about his opportunity to play at the college level.” Photo by Rachael Lechman

They organized t-shirts, assisted with the registration process and set up the food tables. Once the race was underway, Avery and Maddie assisted the participants at the first mile maker, giving direction and cheering them on. They rounded out their volunteer service by assisting various sponsors in breaking down booths and cleaning up the grounds along the Buffalo Bayou Trail. Avery and Maddie said they enjoyed making a difference in the lives of those who suffer from arthritis by doing what the Lord calls them to do - serve! 1 Peter 4:10 says: “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others…”

Chief Bragg was recognized on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of Salute to Law Enforcement, a program that he started. The day allows various law enforcement agencies and the public to come together for a community event in which fallen officers are recognized, scholarships are awarded and demonstrations are presented. Over the last 20 years, the event has reached more than 50,000 members of the public, and each year more than 80 different agencies are represented. “These recipients are true patriots and heroes in our community,” said Chapter Vice President Tom Jackson. “They have profound impacts in our neighborhoods and on our children. They make things better for everyone around them, and that’s exactly the spirit that the leaders, soldiers, merchants and laymen of the American Revolution would have appreciated.”

BOARD APPROVES CONTINUATION OF RESIDENCE HOMESTEAD EXEMPTIONS
The Cypress-Fairbanks ISD Board of Trustees approved a resolution to continue the residence homestead exemptions for CFISD residents for the 2015 tax year during the regularly scheduled Board meeting on May 11th. CFISD is among a select group of Houston-area school districts that offer a 20-percent Local Optional Homestead Exemption to all resident homeowners. Coupled with a state-mandated $15,000 homestead exemption, CFISD residents pay less per year than residents of most neighboring districts on homes of the same value. The district also offers local exemptions of $15,000 a piece for both property owners who are age 65 or older or disabled. These residents qualify for an additional $10,000 state-mandated exemption.

How would you feel if you saved a kid’s life? StandUp For Kids is an all volunteer organization dedicated to saving the lives of at-risk and homeless kids through volunteer outreach efforts. Our volunteers search the streets in order to find, stabilize and otherwise help homeless and street kids improve their lives. Every day throughout the US thirteen kids die on the streets from abuse, disease and suicide. According to recent statistics Houston has up to 2,500 kids living on the streets at any given time. Texas has the highest rate of homeless youth in the U.S. StandUp For Kids needs supplies for our Houston program, which provides food, clothing, counseling and a safe environment for the homeless youth of Houston. If you or your organization would like to hold a food or clothing drive for StandUp For Kids please contact me at HeatherE@ standupforkids.org to learn more about StandUp For Kids or how you can help visit our website at www.standupforkids.org. The single greatest need, for homeless and street kids is our continuous caring and real support. We must convince them that we care, we want them back and we want to help them get off the streets.

LOCAL MENTORS NEEDED TO MENTOR ONE CHILD & CHANGE TWO LIVES!
CROSSROADS is a nonprofit United Way agency that provides mentors for at risk youth between the ages of 10 and 17. Visit our website at www. crossroads-volunteers.org and consider running an ad like the one below in your Copperfield subdivision newsletter. Many young people don’t have strong positive adult influences in their lives to help guide them through these crucial years. Mentoring makes a difference in both the life of the youth and our community. A commitment of 1 hour weekly is all we ask. Help us shape the leaders of tomorrow by contacting Jan, CROSSROADS Volunteer Recruiter at Jan.gibbs@hcjpd.hctx.net or 713-295-2779. Mentor one child… change two lives.

FOSTER CHILDREN: PREPARATION FOR ADULT LIVING (PAL)
When foster children reach age 18, they are considered independent. That’s difficult for kids who have been wards of the state, with necessities arranged by caseworkers with state funds. Now they’ll have to figure out how to organize themselves and make their money last a whole month. Fortunately, Child protective Services offers them a program to help prepare for independence: Preparation for Adult Living (PAL). The year-long course culminates in an all-day workshop hosted by the National Council for Jewish Women (NCJW). The course is held at Junior Achievement’s BizTown, using computer kiosks sponsored by local businesses. Want to help with PAL or other NCJW programs that help change lives with hands-on community service? Contact info@ncjwhouston.org or see www.ncjwhouston.org.

Prior to their adoption, DREAM continues to pay for all medical care and monthly heart worm prevention. There is no long-term commitment required. Food, water, shelter and a soft place to rest is all you need to provide. The “love” just comes naturally. If you have a little room in your heart and in your home (and your family pets are up-to-date on their vaccines and monthly heart worm preventative), then you are who we are looking for! There is no feeling in the world like
