2012 ANNUAL MEETING UPDATE - AT

The Association was unable to meet the membership quorum requirements of 10% at the original annual meeting called on February 27, 2012. Pursuant to legislative changes to the Texas Property Code adopted in 2011, a homeowners association must have a formal election of directors each year, thus requiring we re-call the election of directors until such time as we meet the 10% quorum. In an effort to avoid costly expenditures by re-calling the entire meeting, the Association is exercising its right to perform an online election. There are two positions available for three year terms. We are accepting interested nominees for the ballot at this time and further information regarding the online voting process will be distributed as available. If you are interested in placing your name on the ballot, please contact management at 1-866-842-4645, ext. 3161 or email sherri@highsierramanagement.com.

2012 SUMMER POOL HOURS - AT

The pool will open May 26th through September 3rd. During the summer season the pool will be open the following hours: Monday: Closed for cleaning Tuesday – Saturday: 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM Sunday: 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM in the Resident Services section. Have a great summer!

Performances were polished, sets were vibrant, costumes clever and our students dazzled us with their lively spirit. The Varsity Men’s and Women’s choirs, along with Acapella and Chamber choirs were melded together fantastically and masterfully in two weeks for an event that left you feeling happy and wanting more. Great job to all the behind the scene helpers, the baking parents, the costume making mom’s and our amazing choir directors! You pulled off yet another smashing, scene stealing show! BRAVO!

“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 APRIL. 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.

On Sunday morning, February 12th at the 10:45 Am service, mr. Hugh Corpening, the District Committee Chairperson for the Copperhead District of Boy Scouts of America, presented to Dr. Dave meadows, senior pastor at Cornerstone United methodist Church, the Copperhead District Chartered Partner Award for 2011. The Boy Scouts of America is one of the nation’s largest and most prominent values-based youth development organizations. The BSA provides a program for young people that builds character, trains them in the responsibilities of participating citizenship and develops future leaders of this country by combining educational activities and lifelong values with fun. The Boy Scouts of America believes that helping youth is a key to building a more conscientious, responsible and productive society. Cornerstone UmC, with campuses at 15919 Ridge Park Dr. and 18081 West Road in northwest Houston, currently sponsors onetenth of the Scouting units in the Copperhead District. For 15 years, Cornerstone has sponsored Troop 3 and for 10 years the church has sponsored Troop 1296. In 2008, Crew 396 was founded to serve the older youth of both of these troops as well as the high school age This year, Pack 833 and Troop 421 also needed sponsors. Once believes that Scouting with its emphasis as expressed in “The Scout Oath” to “…do my duty to God and County…to help other people at all times…to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight” is certainly consistent with the Christian faith.

Cypress UMC donAtes thoUsAnds to LoCAL sChooL

People normally think of church as a place that accepts donations, but this week Cypress United methodist Church is giving a donation of $8,000 to Adam Elementary School to be used to complete their running track. The check presentation ceremony was Wednesday, February 29th, at 11:30 Am at Adam Elementary, 11303 Honeygrove, in Houston. “Our theme for our Christmas Eve offering was ‘Give It All Away’,” says Jerome Brimmage, Senior Pastor at Cypress UmC. “We felt led to give 100% of our Christmas Eve offering to support local and global missions. Locally, that portion of the money is going to Adam.” The track project at Adam has been in the works for eight years, but had stalled due to lack of funding. Cypress UmC “adopted” Adam Elementary in 2011 and has been instrumental in providing backpacks, school supplies and volunteers to help the students and staff at the school. T he program has been so successful; other local schools have contacted Cypress UmC, to see if they can be adopted as well.

Iggy the Iguana

Turtle Town

Students will learn how to think outside of the box and create unique characters with interesting stories. The author, Melissa Williams, will discuss the way she used her own experiences with her pets to create the fictional characters in Iggy the Iguana and Turtle Town series while teaching the use of archetypes, conflict resolution and original storyline development tactics. Students will learn how to bring their own ideas to life through words and illustrations as professional illustrator Ryan Shaw explains the process of connecting to the author’s characters with art. During the week, the students will have the opportunity to use their newly learned skills to come up with their own character and develop a unique short story that will be eligible for publication in the “I Write Short Stories by Kids for Kids” contest.
