NEIGHBORS!

The long struggle is over! Homeowners have completed the take over of the Home Owners Association (HOA) Board and the new Board is comprised of 100% homeowners. Although we have a lot of work ahead, we have a lot to be thankful for! We now have open Board meetings, a Budget, will have an Annual Meeting and the assessments will not be raised! The Clubhouse and the pool now belong to the HOA and we have secured the property with surveillance cameras and an alarm system. Your concerns are our concerns! We live in this community too and we need you to help us make Parkway Lakes the best community it can be! There are some great things ahead! Thank you in advance for being involved and concerned about our community. Only when we work together do we have the power to make change! From Your Parkway Lakes Home Owner Association Board, Pastor Al Green, President Lovisa Duplantis, Director Steve Zagorski, Director

November has been designated National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month and it is about time we recognize the 5 million Americans living with this disease and the 10 million family caregivers that make it possible. Alzheimer’s is a form of dementia that attacks brain cells diminishing a person’s memory and becoming fatal over time. It impairs memory, thinking and behavior and is responsible for more than 50 percent of all dementia cases. The onset of symptoms most often develops slowly and worsen over time,

until they become severe enough to interfere with daily life. The fear of Alzheimer’s may be in part due to the fact that there is no cure and the treatments that exist for Alzheimer’s are not extremely effective in slowing the progression of the disease. Current drugs for Alzheimer’s help to subdue the symptoms for only half of those who try them and on average, the drugs are only effective for a year. In support of families everywhere who are fighting this disease, consider stepping in and helping out by becoming an advocate, making a donation to Alzheimer’s research or by offering support to a patient or family caregiver.

NETWORK TEXAS HOSTED BENEFITS FOR SHIELD BEARER Network Texas, a unique business networking group that supports their members and the community, hosted two Parties with Purpose benefiting Shield Bearer on September 16th in Katy and October 21st in Tomball. Proceeds from these events directly benefit Shield Bearer’s human trafficking recovery and intimate partner violence prevention programs.

Intimate partner violence (also known as domestic violence or dating violence) is the most common cause of injury for women ages 18-44. As many as 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner, which equates to more than 10 million people per year in the United States. The community is encouraged to learn more and get involved.

Houston is the number one human trafficking hub in the country due to interstate access and the close proximity to the border and Port of Houston. Many victims of human trafficking are children and in desperate need of mental health services for trauma, addiction and depression.

The average American consumes approximately three times the recommended daily dose of calories on the nation’s favorite turkey-stuffed holiday. If you can stomach it, here’s a look at Thanksgiving eating, by the numbers: • 1,500: The amount of calories an average woman needs each day • 2,000: The amount of calories an average man needs each day • 3,000: The estimated amount of calories in a typical Thanks giving meal, including turkey, side dishes and dessert • 5,000 to 6,000: The estimated amount of calories people consume throughout Thanksgiving Day, roughly triple the recommended daily intake • 590: The amount of calories in an average serving of a tradi tionally prepared Thanksgiving turkey • 30: Grams of fat in an average serving of a traditionally prepared Thanksgiving turkey • 400: The amount of calories in a softball-sized serving of stuffing • 25: Grams of fat in a softball-sized serving of stuffing or “the amount of fat you’d gobble up in a large, fast food serving of french fries,” says Darlene Zimmerman at the Detroit Free Press • 323: The amount of calories in a small, lightbulb-sized slice of pumpkin pie • 456: The amount of calories in a small, lightbulb-sized slice of pecan pie • 90: Calories in a typical three-ounce glass of red wine • 3,500: The amount of calories needed for the body to create one extra pound of fat • 500 to 700: Calories that healthy dieters should aim for in their Thanksgiving meal, as recommended by health experts at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center • 60: The number of minutes it takes for a 150-pound person to burn 500 calories by jogging at a moderate pace, according to Livestrong.com.

ATTENTION! PET POOPS / YOU SCOOP

Please be respectful of community grounds and neighbors’ yards. If your pet poops during your walk, be prepared to scoop and trash. Come with a scooper and a recycled grocery bag or anything else. It may not be the most fabulous way to walk your pet, but it does show your respect for every homeowner and our beautiful community.

LICENSING OF DOGS AND CATS IN FORT BEND COUNTY All dogs and cats are required to be registered and licensed with Fort Bend County Animal Services. To be registered, dogs and cats must be current on all vaccinations and have a rabies shot done by a veterinarian in the State of Texas. The cost is $1 for spayed and neutered dogs and cats and $5 for dogs and cats who have not been spayed or neutered. Senior citizens may register their dog or cat for $1. The cost of all licenses is for 1 year only and must be renewed annually. To register your dog or cat, send rabies certificates, proof of spay/neutering (vet bill), along with a money order to Fort Bend County Animal Services, 1210 Blume Road, Rosenberg, TX 77471. A license will then be sent to the pet owner.

See www.fortbendcountytx.gov/index.aspx?page=565 for more information.

FORT BEND COUNTY “LEASH LAW”

Animal control authorities are permitted to enter your Property to patrol and remove pets. Pets must be registered, licensed and inoculated as required by law. As a dog owner, you are responsible for the control of your dog. If your dog is one that ‘makes objectionable noise,’ you must make every effort to respect your Neighbor’s right to their ‘peace and quiet.’

When your dog is not in your yard, it is imperative that you keep your dog on a leash at all times. While your dog is friendly to you and your family, imagine the consequences if it were to harm someone while it was ‘roaming free.’ Please respect other resident’s right to walk the common area ground without fear of attack from an unleashed dog. Laws are written to ensure that owned animals are confined to their property or kept on a leash to free a community of unrestrained and free-roaming animals. Although most dog bites occur on the property where the dog lives, unrestrained or free-roaming dogs do pose a substantial threat to the public. In addition, unrestrained animals are at increased risk of being bitten by rabies infected wildlife. Enforcement of restraint laws is essential in enhancing the animal control program’s efforts to reduce the risk of rabies in our community. LICENSING OF DOGS AND CATS The primary benefit of licensing animals is identification, should that animal become lost. Licensing also: • Ensures that rabies vaccination are current. • Allows for quick identification in case of a bite incident. • Provides revenue to offset the administration costs of the animal control program. VACCINATION Rabies vaccinations are a prerequisite for licensing dogs and cats because they are an important control measure for the public health threat of rabies. In addition to protecting pets, rabies vaccinations provide a barrier between infected wild animals and humans.

GARDENING TIPS FOR NOVEMBER

• Brown patch will continue to plague St. Augustine lawns as nights get cooler and humidity and rain continue. Discolored circles will appear in low areas almost overnight. Apply a fungicide recommended for brown patch according to label directions. Avoid walking through brown-patched turf. It spreads easily from the bottom of your shoes. If brown patch appears in the same lawn areas every year, add an inch or two of sandy topsoil to eliminate those low spots. • Fertilize St. Augustine turf with a winterizing formula to promote root growth over the winter months. Lower your lawn mover blades now and mow on a schedule that cuts no more than one-third of the grass blade away. • As chrysanthemums and other perennials finish blooming, cut flowering stalks to the ground to permit all strength to be used in making root growth. • Feed roses lightly, but avoid nitrogen fertilizers. Do not prune now. Keep up spraying program and water deeply.

• Remove dead foliage and plant debris to help eradicate insects and disease organisms. Thin out and transfer volunteer seedlings. Beds made now will benefit by weathering before being planted. If soil is heavy, dig six inches deep, leave rough, cover with gymsum and strawy manure, water and allow to mellow. • Bananas are more likely to bear fruit if the trunk does not die back in winter. Cut banana stalks back to six feet, wrap with newspaper and burlap. • Continue mulching for winter. Build up a thick top mulch to protect roots from freezing and winter drying. Don’t throw away those pine tree needles; they make great acidic mulch for azaleas, gardenias and next Spring’s impatiens. • Place pansies in beds after weather has cooled. Use a little blood meat mixed in soil under each plant. • Now is the best time to plant trees and shrubs.

After 12 hours of training, outstanding volunteers are equipped to teach Basic Literacy and English as a Second Language (ESL) classes to adults. The trainings prepare tutors to organize and compile lesson plans, learn about various tutoring techniques, understand the purpose of the Literacy Council and much more. Tutors do not need knowledge of any foreign language, nor do they need formal teaching experience. We offer many locations for tutoring throughout the area, including locations in Katy. Tutoring sessions are offered during the day and at night. If you are interested in impacting someone’s life by being their tutor, please contact the Literacy Council at 281-240-8181 or visit the website at www.ftbendliteracy.org. Help us to “Change Lives Through Literacy!”

RUOK PROGRAM

Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Dept. has a computer-generated program called “Are You OK?” (RUOK). It is a computer-generated call intended for senior citizens (over 55) and disabled persons who live alone and could benefit from a daily check. A computer will generate a call each morning, at about the same time and the participant chooses a time frame. A voice will ask, “Are you OK?” After this, all they have to do is hang up the phone. If the participant goes out of town or leaves the residence for any time, you just temporarily un-subscribe and re-subscribe when you return. If the call goes unanswered, the
