This application is reviewed and decided on by the Architectural Control Committee (ACC). Springtime is the season to make repairs and upgrades to the exterior of your home, including the landscaping. Please don’t forget to submit your application before making a change to the exterior of your home. The ACC Committee tries to process the applications as quickly as possible. Supplying the specifications of your improvement and a sample or detailed list of materials to be used will also help speed up this process. You may contact Crest Management for an application.

• If the water heater is electric, you want to turn the breaker off. • You do not need to drain your water heater. • For your washing machine, it is a good idea to turn the valves off. • For your HVAC system, it is a good idea to set the thermostat to 55 or 60 degrees and open your cabinet doors. • Have your plumber turn back on your house water supply and flush out the lines.

KEEPING OUR DRAINS CLEAN
FM 529 Animal Hospital
Did you know that you are responsible to keep the curbs in front of your property clean and free from yard waste and other debris? The curbs direct rainwater to the County’s storm drainage system and the water needs a clean path to flow through to the drains. Grass growing in the curbs and drains block that free flow and may contribute to the high water we typically see with a heavy rain.
(Full Service Animal Hospital)
Also, it is illegal to sweep or blow any lawn clippings, leaves or other debris into the county drains. Please re mind your lawn crews to take your clippings with them. Thank you for helping to keep Lakes of Pine Forest neat and clean!

• Birds: Provide food and fresh water. More birds die from lack of water than from lack of food. • Cacti: Semi-dormant now. Reduce watering. • Camellias: Plants may be moved. Pick up and discard fallen blooms. • Cultivation: Changes in design may now be made, new beds dug and old ones rebuilt. Correct defects in drainage. Incorporate gypsum into heavy soils: repeat in three weeks. Dig granite dust, rock phosphate and quantities of organic matter into soil. Allow time for settling before planting. • Fertilize: Daylilies, spuria, Louisiana and bearded irises with complete fertilizer. Give strawberries 1 teaspoon ammonium sulfate, keeping six inches away from plant. Fertilize pansies with manure tea or blood meal. Water in. • Fruits: Plant fruit trees. Mulch figs with grass or straw to prevent freeze damage to crown. • House Plants: Water, when surface soil is crumbly dry. Wash dust off leaves to open pores. Mist often. Inspect for diseases and insects. Reduce water for poinsettias. • Lawns: Remove thatch aerate, and feed with low nitrogen mixture. • Pests: For petal blight prevention, spray azaleas and camellias as flowers open. Spray for scale with dormant oil solution if temperature will be above 35˚ and below 85˚ for next 48 hours. Always read and heed manufacturer’s directions before spraying. • Propagation: Ivy cuttings root easily this month and next. Root cuttings of shrubs in mixture of loam and coarse sand; keep damp and semi-shaded until rooted.

Remove dead wood from trees and shrubs before spring buds swell, but do not prune spring bloomers. Prune crape myrtles. Prune nandina and others of similar growth habit by cutting unwanted canes out at base of plant. • Roses: Annual pruning about the middle of February, just before the spring buds break. To prevent later appearance of disease in the old beds, keep garden clean of debris and weeds. Complete preparation of new beds for roses. • Transplanting: January is one of the best months to transplant woody plants, both evergreen and deciduous, especially trees. Energy will be expended on roots instead of foliage. Learn ultimate size and cultural needs of tree or plant before buying. Consider dwarf varieties to avoid crowding later. Group plants of similar cultural needs. Do not work wet soil. Assure good drainage. Keep plants moist. • Vegetables: Prepare beds, preferably raised for drainage, with about 50% humus, including rotted manure. • Winter Protection: Expect freeze any time; plan for protection of tender plants. Water. Remove coverings, particularly plastic, when temperature rises. Protect low plants with dry leaves, pine needles or soil mulch, but remove when weather warms.

BSA TROOP 120 SPRING MULCH FUNDRAISER IS IN FULL SWING • • • •
Mulch AND Fertilizer at GREAT Prices GAS-Savings with FREE Home Delivery No price increases this year on any of our products Scout receives 95% of the profits
Deerfield Village Boy Scout Troop 120 is sponsoring the 2015/16 Mulch, Soil and Fertilizer Fundraiser to benefit scouts in BSA Troop 120. Scouts earn money for their individual “camp accounts” from which they underwrite high adventure trips and related camping and training activities. Recent expeditions have been to Canada, Philmont, Sea Base (Florida) and other exciting scout destinations! This is a great opportunity for Scouts to learn salesmanship skills and gives them an opportunity to sell great lawn and garden products at good prices, DELIVERED FREE RIGHT TO YOUR DOOR. Scouts can also spread the mulch for a nominal fee per bag. No more lugging bags of mulch and fertilizer around- let the scouts do it for you!! This year Troop 120 will be selling bags of: • PINE BARK MULCH • BLACK VELVET MULCH • CEDAR MULCH • TOP SOIL • POTTING SOIL • ORGANIC FERTILIZER • SYNTHETIC FERTILIZER January 2016

Scouts will be selling door-to-door in our communities through January 27th, with delivery of the product scheduled for February 26th to 28th. If a scout has not called on you during the sales period or you have a question or you want to place an order directly, use the “Contact Us” on our website www.bsatroop120.com. This way you won’t miss a chance to order great landscaping products. Please consider purchasing your landscaping supplies from our neighborhood Boy Scouts instead of the big box store.

BLOOD DRIVE
LOCAL RESIDENT INDUCTED INTO THE TEXAS RADIO HALL OF FAME November 14th, 2015, of this year Roger “Ramsey” Corkill, a Deerfield Village Resident since 1989 was inducted into the Texas Radio Hall of Fame. The induction was held at the Marriot North
6
in Round Rock, TX. Roger started his career just out of the famed 82nd Airborne Division in 1969. After a successful Radio career on the air from Texas to North Carolina and Virginia Beach, he went to work for MCA Records and spent the next twenty years there. As Senior Southwest Regional Promotion Director he was chosen to introduce a new young country singer to radio on a radio promotional tour that started in San Antonio, his name was George Strait and as they say, “the rest is history.” Roger, was also involved in the early musical career of Reba McEntire, Mark Chesnutt, Lee Greenwood, Trisha Yearwood, Steve Wariner, Lyle Lovett, John Conlee and Tracy Byrd. He also was privileged to work with Vince Gill, Conway Twitty, Merle Haggard, Jimmy Buf fett, The Bellamy Brothers, The Oak Ridge Boys, Brenda Lee, Loretta Lynn and many more. Roger is doing Independent Record Promotion for the Texas Charts by sharing his many years in the music business with you and upcoming artists. Roger says it’s been a wonderful and exciting ride all these years with many great memories to cherish. He is quick to add he could not have done it without his family, Connie Marie, wife of 44 years, 3 sons, Roger II, Joshua Lee and Nick Shane and daughter-in-laws Lara, Monica and Marita and six grandchildren, Gracie, Isabelle, Luke, Max, Kaylee and Miles. The ride continues with another granddaughter, Kendall Marie joining the Corkill’s in April of 2016.

THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. When MLK Jr. was a little boy, it saddened him that he could not befriend people who were not black. He knew in his heart that just because people may look different on the outside, the contents of their hearts and their character is what makes a person valuable. Martin Luther King Jr. saw a social problem, developed a dream and eventually by taking action, he changed the United States as well as the world. He is still today among the most well-known social activists in the world. • Martin Luther King Jr. led the bus boycott in 1955 that was sparked by Rosa Parks. • He helped form the Southern Christian Leadership Conference in 1957, an organization that worked for civil rights. • He was the leader of the entire civil rights movement in the 1960s that called for working out conflicts with kindness and love as opposed to hate and violence. • Martin Luther King Jr. fought for and achieve mandatory equal voting rights in America for blacks and whites. • Martin Luther King Jr. led lunch counter sit-ins where he and other blacks and whites demanded equal treatment in restaurants for people of all races. • Martin Luther King Jr.’s nonviolent peaceful demonstrations proved to the world that action without violence can be effective and successful. • Because of Martin Luther King Jr., it is no longer legal in the United States to segregate or discriminate based on skin color. • The standard has been set for all nations to treat everyone equally regardless of skin color because of the work of Martin Luther King Jr. Courtesy of: http://castle.eiu.edu/

CY-LAKES SENIOR EARNS HONORS
CY-LAKES MU ALPHA THETA TO HOST ASTRONAUT On January 27th, members of the Mu Alpha Theta Honor Society are in for a special treat at Cy Lakes High School. The math honor society will feature NASA astronaut Sunita Williams as the keynote speaker at its January induction for new members. Not only does Ms. Williams bring a wealth of information regarding the space program, she is also a model for everyone, especially females who are interested in engineering. Williams received a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Science from the U.S. Naval Academy and a Master’s of Science degree in Engineering Management from the Florida Institute of Technology. Among her numerous honors, Williams received the Navy Commendation Medal, Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal, Humanitarian Service Medal and various other service awards. After completing numerous assignments in the navy and logging in more than 3,000 flight hours in over 30 different aircraft, Williams was selected by NASA in 1998 for the astronaut program. She has been on numerous expeditions, including space walks and has spent a total of 322 days in space on two missions. Williams now ranks sixth on the all-time U.S. endurance list and second all-time for a female astronaut. Members are looking forward to listening to Sunita Williams at the induction ceremony.

Cy-Lakes senior Tyler Carlo was serious about taking the PSAT Test during his junior year and his score proved it. Carlo scored high enough to earn the status of Hispanic Scholar. This honor gives students an excellent chance of receiving scholarship offers from universities. Recently, Tyler was also awarded the status of National Merit Commended because of his excellent PSAT score. This designation increases his chances even further for scholarship opportunities. Now Tyler will have to decide where these great opportunities will lead him. Other students who earned the Hispanic Scholar status are Jordan Garza, Yennifer Gonzalez, Angel Leal and Sophia Lopez. Cy-Lakes is proud of all these students for their accomplishments.

“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 January. 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.

You are invited to St. Cuthbert Episcopal Church’s Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper on February 9th from 5:30-7 PM. We will eat pancakes and play bingo! Shrove Tuesday originated during the Middle Ages. Food items like meats, fats, eggs, milk and fish were regarded as restricted during Lent. To keep such food from being wasted, many families would have big feasts on Shrove Tuesday. The English tradition of eating pancakes on Shrove Tuesday came about as a way to use as much milk, fats and eggs as possible before Ash Wednesday began. In France, the consumption of all fats and fatty foods on this day coined the name “Fat Tuesday” or Mardi Gras. You are invited to the Ash Wednesday services at St. Cuthbert Episcopal Church on February 10th at 6:30 AM, 4:30 PM and 7 PM. All services have Holy Communion and the imposition of ashes. The 4:30 PM service is designed for children and their families. Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the season of Lent, which is dedicated to reflection, prayer and fasting in preparation for Easter.
