LAKES ON ELDRIDGE BIBLE STUDY

Lakes on Eldridge began its 2015-2016 Ladies’ Bible Study on September 8, 2015. We meet each Tuesday morning at 9:15 AM for fellowship, followed by singing, Bible study and prayer time. If you would like to join us, please contact Stephanie at leggettstephanie@ymail.com. Our study for the Fall/Winter term looks into the prayers of David, Moses, Asaph and other Old Testament characters found in the Psalms. These prayers give us myriad examples of how we are to pray and what we are to pray for - examples God expects us to follow and emulate. We can see from other studies of the whole Bible just how God answered these prayers and what we might expect when we pray in similar fashion. Study Guides will be available at the ﬁrst meeting for a cost of $10. We hope you will join us for this timely study.

CONSIDERING GETTING A NEW DOG?

…or if you know friends and family who are, please consider and suggest rescuing vs. buying a dog from a breeder. We have every breed of purebred dog available in our Texas pounds and shelters, in great quantities. This is because of the complete lack of any regulations or limit on breeding in Texas. • Approximately 30-40% of euthanasias in pounds involve purebred animals. • Mixed breeds in Texas stand almost no chance of making it out of the pounds alive. There is absolutely nothing wrong with these dogs; they just had the misfortune of being owned by people who did not provide for their needs and care and obviously had no real commitment to their pet. • Countless numbers of people turn their own dogs in to high-kill shelters, dump them rurally in the middle of nowhere or let them roam and stray. It reﬂects a mentality that most dog lovers do not understand. • When you or someone you know considers adopting a dog, please check out one of our ﬁve local animal shelters: 1. BARC - Bureau of Animal Regulation and Care i.e. Houston’s animal control or city pound 2. Harris County Animal Control 3. Houston SPCA 4. Houston Humane Society 5. CAP - Citizens for Animal Protection

The Cypress Ridge High School Symphony Orchestra will be joining an elite group of musicians with its invitation to the 69th annual Midwest Clinic in Chicago. The Midwest Clinic International Band, Orchestra and Music Conference, the world’s largest instrumental music education conference, is scheduled for December 16th - 19th. Cypress Ridge is the ﬁrst orchestra from Cypress-Fairbanks ISD to be chosen to perform. The 110 member Cypress Ridge Symphony Orchestra is among six international high school orchestras that will perform at the conference. Every year, groups of every type and size from all over the world apply for the honor of performing at the conference. The Cypress Ridge Symphony Orchestra was chosen based on its excellent resume of past contest performances and on a recorded audition submitted in March. The invitation to participate is an honor and culmination of the orchestra members many years of hard work and practice under the leadership of their director, Mr. Christopher Mustell. The orchestra recognizes the once-in-a-lifetime experience and looks forward to representing Cypress Ridge, CFISD and Houston. The expenses for this opportunity are challenging and expected to run $1,500 per student. Community support will be vital in making sure every symphony orchestra member may participate.

GIRL SCOUTS GIRL SCOUTS OF SAN JACINTO COUNCIL COPPER CREEK MEADOWS COMMUNITY

Girl Scouts from Copper Creek Meadows have been enjoying all kinds of summer activities. Girl Scout Junior Troop 16468 from Birkes Elementary school has been having an especially busy summer. The girls attended the Bull’s Eye Resident camp and also the Girl Scout Day Camp held at the Houston Farm and Ranch Club. They also enjoyed a night of roller skating and a troop circus visit to the Ringling Brothers-Barnum and Bailey Circus. A “Pottery Fun” workshop was an opportunity to explore a new art form. The girls ﬁnished off their troop summer fun with a Space Center Camp-In. Now that school has started, they will be working on Journey project priming and painting metal trash containers at Birkes Elementary. It sounds like these very active and enthusiastic Girl Scouts will be adding quite a collection of patches to their vests and sashes! Many thanks to all those volunteers, Program Aides and Camp Aides who helped to make the Jersey Village Twilight Camp a success! Copper Creek Meadows Community is a part of the Cy-Fair East, Region Four area. The region has a Rallyhood site and Facebook page for Cadette through Ambassador Girl Scouts to provide additional opportunities for our older girls. Check with your troop leader for more information. Cadette Girl Scouts in Area Four will be planning and hosting a Brownie Quest Journey workshop in November in order to earn their Leadership in Action award. Troop 16399 has had several projects to raise funds for the Houston SPCA as they work toward achieving their Bronze Award. Troop 16503 planned their year of events and ideas at their ﬁrst troop meeting for the new school year. They are also planning to start work on their Bronze Award. Copper Creek Meadows Community already has a Leader/Daughter event on the schedule for December 5th. This will be held locally. Be on the lookout for more information!

Copper Creek Meadows Community would like to thank Andrel Bridgewater, Jennifer Aldaco and all those involved in our Rally and other recruitment efforts. We especially thank those Girl Scout troops and their leaders who provided activities (and a chance to see what Girl Scouts do!) at our Rally nights. Our Rally Nights have been continuing throughout September and the ﬁrst week of October. We have been forming new troops and placing girls in existing troops. If you were unable to attend one of the Rally Nights, it is not too late to sign up! Girl Scouting is open to all girls ages 5 (must be in kindergarten) through 18 who are willing to accept the Girl Scout Promise and Law. Girls may join at any level and no previous Scouting experience is required. Copper Creek Meadows Community serves girls in the residence areas for the elementary schools listed below, as well as the corresponding middle and high schools. Our elementary schools are: Birkes, Fiest, Hairgrove, Horne, Kirk, Lee, Lieder, Lowery, Metcalf, Owens, Tipps, Wilson, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, Texas Christian School and Christian Life Center. Home schooled and private school students are always welcome. Older girls whose schedules do not allow for participation in a troop or group may register as “Juliettes” or “individually registered girls.” Don’t forget that we always need leaders and other adult volunteers! We can’t have Girl Scout troops without them. You don’t need to be a super hero or a park ranger- you don’t even have to have children! You do need to have an interest in working with girls, pass a background check and take some training. Only a little is required to get started, but a lot more is available when you are ready for it. Please contact Marlo Folwell - 713-854-9426 (marlo.folwell@c-a-m. com for more information. You may also check out the Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council website, www.gssjc.org or call the Council ofﬁce at 713-292-0300.

Our Fall Product sale began on September 11th. In person order taking continues through October 4th. Girls can continue to sell online until October 25th through the girls’ online storefront. Three new products this year are Black Forest Trail Mix, Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Caramels and Honey Mustard Pretzel Mix. Leaders who attended our community summit meeting in September had a chance to sample all those delicious treats. Everyone agreed it was a great incentive for coming to the meeting! Thanks to Crystal Lawrenz for serving as our Fall Product Manager!

CY-FALLS STUDENT JOSH GILLIAM OF TROOP 202 EARNS EAGLE SCOUT AWARD

On Sunday, July 19 , Josh Gilliam, son of Jim & Pam Gilliam of Copperﬁeld, earned the Boy Scouts of America Eagle Scout Award. Josh is a member of Troop 202, a troop sponsored by Middlegate Village Homeowner’s Association. Troop 202 meets regularly on Mondays at 7 PM at Copperﬁeld Church. th

For his Eagle project and at the recommendation given by Josh’s church - Copperﬁeld Church, Josh chose to build a work table/cabinet for the church staff’s resource room. The cabinet was used to replace a limited, portable 6’ table. The cabinet was constructed of ¾” oak plywood with an attractive laminate countertop. The bottom consisted of six cubby-hole shelves (3 in front and back) which will be used for storage. Josh used his funds to purchase the materials from Home Depot. With the help of adult and youth volunteers from Troop 202, as well as scout friends from other troops, Josh organized the crew for the building and installation of the work table/cabinet. Upon being awarded the Eagle Scout rank, Josh has thus-far successfully earned 32 merit badges, completed NYLT (National Youth Leadership Training), held numerous leadership positions in Troop 202 including Senior Patrol Leader in 2013, participated in three High Adventure trips including Florida Sea Base (2013), Chisolm Trail (2013) and Philmont (2014) and camped with his troop on countless weekends. Josh, 16 years old and in 11th grade, is an outstanding percussionist and a proud member of the CyFalls High School Golden Eagle Marching Band and Drumline! After high school, he plans to pursue music as a profession. His dream is to become successful percussionist with a Drum Corp or large symphony orchestra.

BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA COPPERHEAD DISTRICT

For 100 years, Scouting programs have instilled in youth the values found in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Today, these values are just as relevant in helping youth grow to their full potential as they were in 1910. Scouting helps youth develop academic skills, selfconfidence, ethics, leadership skills, outdoor skills and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives. The Boy Scouts of America provides youth with programs and activities that allow them to: • Try new things. • Provide service to others. • Build self-confidence. • Reinforce ethical standards. Scouting provides youth with a sense that they are important as individuals while promoting activities that lead to personal responsibility and high self-esteem. As a result, when hard decisions have to be made, peer pressure can be resisted and the right choices can be made. Scouting provides a rewarding experience for boys ages 5 to 21. Scouting through the local Packs and Troops teach outdoor and life skills which help our youth Be Prepared. Your area is serviced by the BSA Sam Houston Area Counsel - Copperhead District which includes 23 Cub Scout Packs (boys 5 to 10 years old), 13 Troops

HOUSTON FAMILY ARTS CENTER ASKS AUDIENCES, ‘WHAT’S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?’ IN 2015-2016

“What’s wrong with this picture?” is the playful theme and question attached to each show in Houston Family Arts Center’s (HFAC) 2015-2016 season. Entering its 10th mainstage season, HFAC orchestrated a line-up of all-encompassing shows that highlight the theatre’s award-winning musical expertise, all while enveloping theatre experiences full of odd, zany, mystical and dramatic turmoil audiences love. The ﬁrst half of the season as follows: October 16-November 8, 2015: “Into the Woods” The fairy tale classics of Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, Rapunzel and Little Red Riding Hood are weaved into an original, charming, musical tale of a couple’s journey to break a wicked witch’s curse. Will the baker and his wife be able to break the witch’s spell? November 27-December 20, 2015: “It’s a Wonderful Life” George Bailey spends his life giving up big dreams on behalf of his community. Overwhelmed by family obligations, George uncovers an opportunity to save his town but a mistake ﬁnds himself in a disparaging situation. George’s guardian angel, Clarence, who hasn’t earned his wings, takes George on a journey to discover his “wonderful life.” All performances are on the HFAC Garza Mainstage, recently named “Houston’s Best Gem of a Theatre” by the Houston Press, except for Peter Pan, which will be performed at the Berry Center.

“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 October. 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.
