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 (2) positions available for election to the following terms: three (3) year terms. We are now accepting nominees for the online election through April 30, 2012. Only owners are allowed to seek election to the Board and any owner may certainly nominate themselves. Please contact management if you would like to be nominated or if you would like to nominate another homeowner. Please be advised that management will be administering the online election and monitoring the results to ensure fairness and accordance with new legislative requirements. The online voting will have security features only allowing one vote per unit. The current Board of Directors and election nominees will not have access to the election results or voting administration. upon opening of the online voting, as well as information regarding all

“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 May. 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.

The epic story presented in Les Misérables School Edition is a great way to introduce children to the magic of musical theatre.

Relentless in its musical drive, Les Misérables highlighting, throughout its dramatic action, the struggle inherent in the human condition and the indomitability of the spirit, despite great suffering. Set in 19th century France, this classic and poignant musical, tells the story of Jean Valjean, a strong-hearted man jailed for stealing a loaf of bread. As he struggles to make a new life for himself given his new found freedom, he must grapple with questions of faith, fatherhood and allegiance to the law.
