GARDENING TIPS FOR APRIL Mulch - If possible, buy Bagged Mulch. Bagging helps eliminate a great many pests that die from various causes while in the bag. When you buy ‘loose’ mulch that is trucked to your home, you are also buying ants, roaches, termites, etc… Spend a little more on bagged material and save lots of future pest problems. Keep your mulch at least 4” - 6” below the top of your homes

Shrubs, Flowers and groundcovers - Trim all shrubs/plants at least 12” - 18” back from your home. Do your best to create a plant free zone that is 18” - 24” wide around your home. The exception is your lawn - it can grow up next to the slab as long as you keep it 4” - 6” below the top of the slab. The most conducive to termite infestation are groundcover plantings, growing high against your homes exterior or (especially) ivy that grows on your walls. Trees - Spray your trees at least twice annually. The spring spray eliminates overwintering pests and fungi while preparing trees to resist the pest onslaught of summer with residual pesticides. The fall spray also kills pests from the summer, prevents most fungi from occurring over the winter and puts your valuable asset off to a healthy winter’s dormancy.

Most important is proper watering: • Water once per week (unless you get a 1/2” rain or more - then do not water.) • Water heavily (1” - 2”) for total lawn coverage. • In severe drought, water every 5th day. • Water from 5 AM to 7 AM in the morning - NOT AT NIGHT. • A heavy deep weekly watering makes the turf grow deeper, stronger and more drought resistant roots. • Less watering also saves you money!!

NOTTINGHAM COUNTRY ELEMENTARY CARNIVAL The 2016 Nottingham Country Elementary (NCE) Carnival is coming on April 8th, from 5 PM-8:30 PM. Everyone is invited, free of charge, to “travel around the world in a day!” The event will celebrate diversity, which is NCE’s theme for the 2015-2016 school year and will be sprinkled with aerospace references, because no one can appreciate the unity of humanity better than an astronaut! Carnival is one of two annual fundraisers for NCE and typically attracts thousands of Katy residents and their families. It will take place at the NCE campus, 20500 Kingsland Blvd. Katy, Texas. Entertainment will include many games and rides, including the return of the Gmax (by popular demand) and the introduction of The Big Baller, a giant obstacle course featuring four huge, red, inflatable balls surrounded by a blue ball pit resembling a moat filled with water. In the food and beverage department, NCE will be offering a sampling of culinary delights from around the world! Chick-Fil-A also returns this year, along with the Chick-Fil-A cow. Pizza and Tutti Frutti for dessert also will be available. Young attendees will enjoy the Petting Zoo and Trackless Train and every guest can replenish their supplies of gear at the Carnival General Store. Kids of all ages can capture photos with their friends in the Photo Booth. Kids are invited to wear multi-cultural attire to the Carnival - as a reminder to The Lakes
Don’t forget the Silent Auction, bound to tantalize with themed baskets from each NCE class, as well as parties and the ever-popular 5th grade basketball game. Previous auctions have included a weekend getaway in a Galveston condo! Stay tuned to NCE’s Facebook page for details on this year’s auction items! Volunteers from Taylor High School will be lending a helping hand to this year’s event and many local businesses have shown their support of NCE by sponsoring this year’s Carnival. All sponsorship dollars are applied toward purchases to improve the school. This year’s Carnival will be absolutely out of this world. We’ll see you…out there!
TAYLOR HIGH SCHOOL JAMES E. TAYLOR HIGH SCHOOL KEY CLUB HOSTED INTERNATIONAL DINNER On January 15, 2016, the James E. Taylor High School Key Club hosted a buffet-style international dinner (INDIE for short) in collaboration with several other cultural clubs (International Cultural Society, Chinese and Japanese Club, German Club and South Asian Students Association.) Several local businesses made donations to provide for the dinner and the raffle that also took place. Tickets were sold separately for the dinner and raffle and due to the large amount of attendees, the total profit amounted to $973.67. This profit will be donated to aid the 4 million Syrian refugees

INDIE was successful in providing a vast array of international foods to attendees while raising an a mountable sum for a just cause and it has hopefully marked the beginning of a selfless tradition that will be continued for years to come.

Don’t mess with Texas® and Keep Texas Beautiful invite you to set aside time for their Elementary School Art Contest. Did you know that Texans ages 16 to 34 are the most likely to litter? We need to do all we can to motivate young Texans to keep our environment free of trash. This contest is a great way to share the Don’t mess with Texas and Keep Texas Beautiful litter prevention messages with your elementary school students so that they learn good habits from an early age. Get creative! Inspired by their creativity and desire to protect our environment, elementary school students from across Texas can submit their best litter prevention design to be considered for the 2016 Don’t mess with Texas Calendar. Entries will be judged based on creativity/uniqueness, inclusion of a litter prevention message and interpretation of theme, overall visual appeal, composition and age appropriateness. Students win prizes and have their art featured. Students who create the top 13 winning designs will have their artwork assigned to a month or featured on the cover of the 2016 Don’t mess with Texas Calendar. Each will also win an iDeaUSA 8 tablet donated by H-E-B and Central Market. All student winners and their artwork will be showcased on the Don’t mess with Texas and Keep Texas Beautiful websites and social media sites, at the 2016 Keep Texas Beautiful annual conference, in media announcements and through other means as appropriate. Teachers win, too! Teachers representing students who produce the top 13 designs will each win a $100 H-E-B and Central Market gift card. See Official Contest Rules for more information. Everything you’ll need to participate including fact sheets, official rules and the contest entry form and agreement is posted at DontMessWithTexas.org. You can also download a flyer to display at your school to generate interest. The contest is through April 8, 2016. All entries must be submitted or postmarked on or before April 8, 2016.

LOST YOUR PET? Veterinary Public Health DIVISION (Formerly called Harris County Animal Control) The Veterinary Public Health Division posts photos of all animals found on their website and updates it twice daily. If you have lost your pet, please check this website. www.countypets.com.
VETERINARY PUBLIC HEALTH DIVISION HARRIS COUNTY LEASH LAW
Animals that are not properly restrained pose a threat to all our residents. While you may know your pet is friendly, an animal running at someone who is walking by is very scary for that person. Many children are afraid of animals and become frightened, which could result in the child getting hurt trying to avoid the animal. Veterinary Public Health (formerly called Harris County Animal Control) advises that “All dogs and cats must be kept under restraint while in the unincorporated areas of Harris County, Texas. The custodian of a dog or cat is not authorized to have, harbor or keep any unlicensed dog or cat, nor to allow any dog or cat to become a stray.”
20
281-299-5397 6193 Highway Blvd. Suite 201 (in the corner) Katy, TX 77494
Restraint is defined as “the control of a dog or cat under the following circumstances: 1. When it is controlled by a line or leash not more than six (6) feet in length, if the line or leash is held by a human being, who is capable of controlling or governing the dog or cat in question 2. When it is within a fully enclosed vehicle 3. When it is on the premise of the custodian and the animal does not have access to sidewalk or street.” While it may be nice to have your animal out in the yard while you work or play, it is against the law, unless the animal is properly restrained. Let’s all help keep our community a safe and comfortable place for all our residents by being responsible pet owners. This will not only protect anyone who may be walking or bicycling in the area, but also the pet owner who could be held legally responsible or possibly sued for failing to properly restrain their pet.
SPECIAL PET SHELTERS DREAM DACHSHUND RESCUE is a local, non-profit 501(c) (3) organization committed to rescuing abandoned, stray and owner-surrendered Dachshunds.
