westgAte July 4th PARAde And CAR shOw extRAvAgAnzA
The social committee is working on having a July 4th Parade this year. For us to be able to do this, we’re putting out a call for participants and volunteers. I’ve done this in a previous neighborhood and the kids had so much fun! for a contest, we’ll have lemonade stands along the route and it will end in the Big Park by the pool, where we’ll have hot dogs and cookies. We’re also planning a Westgate Car Show where our residents can show off their pride and joy autos there at the big park when the parade is over. But we must have volunteers to have the parade; if we don’t have volunteers come forward in June, we won’t be able to have a parade. Look for more details to come on Westgate’s Facebook page, our volunteer website (www.westgatetx.com) and by email from WestgateHOA@yahoo.com (sign up now if you haven’t already). Please email kbmcgaughy@gmail.com and share your ideas and patriotism!

SECTION CAPTAINS NEEDED
We are calling for volunteers for each section to be “Section Captains.” This is like the old “block captains” idea: the person will be a contact for the section in which they live. One purpose will be to help pass out important information to the neighbors in the section. We really need volunteers for this. We are striving to make Westgate a more close-knit, family-friendly neighborhood; this will be one big, helpful step in that direction. To help out, email me at kbmcgaughy@ gmail.com
NO MUD ELECTION ON MAY 12, 2012: BUT STILL GREAT NEWS FOR WESTGATE!
TM
We did not need a MUD election because a one of the former board members who was not a resident stepped aside to allow a Westgate resident to take his place. The Westgate resident who is now a MUD board member was announced at the May MUD Meeting on May 12th. So, now we have two residents on the board keeping an eye on how our tax money is spent; the new MUD board member is Lillian Wanjagi of Westgate. Thanks for stepping up to help keep an eye on how our MUD taxes are spent!

What is a Crime Watch group? It’s neighbors working together to keep an eye on the neighborhood and reporting suspicious activity as it occurs. Westgate is one of the lowest crime areas, but it still happens even here. We need to participate in activities that will allow us to get to know our neighbors, their children and friends so that we can recognize when persons are in the area that may be looking for an opportunity. Most crimes occur in the 9 AM to 2 PM and 2 AM to 4 AM periods.

I’m the chair of the new Westgate Crime Watch committee (Gary Campbell). I wanted to take a moment to seek your help. We will be setting up Watch groups in each section and need section leaders for that purpose. Our purpose will be to educate residents on simple things each of us can do to reduce the opportunity for crime in our neighborhood. If you’d like to be a part of this or have questions, call me at 956-566-6262. Also, we will have a write-up in the next newsletter that will detail what our immediate goals are, some things you can do to deter would-be thieves and several other useful tidbits. Bottom line, we can help ourselves immensely by getting to know our neighbors and watching out for each other! For a Crime Watch Group to be effective, the Sheriff’s Dept recommends at least 60% participation. We plan to educate our neighbors on how they might make their homes less attractive targets. Bottom line - we can only make this work with your participation and willingness to work together! Hope to see you at our next meeting. Look for an announcement from westgateHOA@yahoo.com and on Westgate Subdivision Facebook page. If you want to be a part of the committee or participate in any way, contact Kimberly McGaughy at kbmcgaughy@gmail.com - from resident Gary Campbell.

Basically I’ve got a good layer of soil where the plants are, a layer of thick landscape fabric, a thick layer of top soil and a thick layer of mulch. IN the layers of soil I applied Green Light Amaze, which is a pre-emergent that helps keep weeds from growing (effective for 4 months they say), but won’t kill the existing ones. It’s worked surprisingly well and has drastically cut down the number of weeds I see popping through. The product is completely safe for roses, bushes, shrubs and anything else you’d likely plant in a bed. The one weed it doesn’t stop is the really thin, grass like Nutsedge that is the most annoying thing on the planet. I use a separate product just stay on top of it and pull them when I see them. Now, I’m no gardener and this is just something I’ve seen be effective in my own beds after a lot of trial and error and cursing. The prep work is the hardest part, but a little time spent properly cleaning your beds will go a long way in reducing the number of annoying weeds. -Resident, Zerin Dube
How To deal wiTH door-To-door salesPeoPle in a no soliciTing neigHBorHood
Many residents have recently complained about all the door-to-door salespeople walking the neighborhood with an aggressive attitude. Westgate does have “No Soliciting” signs posted around, but they still seem to come around. For instance, a resident recently posted the following comments on Facebook: “How many more Solicitors are we going have today? I explained neighborhood and they still tried to sell me whatever their product was. I had a man and a lady come together, our truck is in the garage (and they were only going to the houses with empty driveways) and then a different lady came by herself. I don’t know what they were selling. I said ‘Are you from my HOA?’ They answered no. ‘Well, are you trying to sell me something because there are plenty of

Other residents also reported that Kirby salespeople have been rude and aggressive, even going so far as putting a foot in someone’s door so they couldn’t shut it. So, what can we do about solicitors like this? Most salespeople will leave if you tell them you’re not interested. Once you tell them to leave and they don’t or if they are high-pressure selling, call the sheriff. Not leaving is considered trespassing! As an alternative, get their company information/phone number etc. and then tell them that you and your HOA will be contacting their company to tell them they are soliciting in a neighborhood that prohibits it. Then, report the information to VanMor Properties at 832-593-7300.

WAYNE MCCULLOUGH TO ATTEND COLORADO CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY
Rosehill Christian School Senior Wayne McCullough signed a letter of intent to play basketball for Colorado Christian University. Wayne, a member of the National Honor Society, has received both academic and athletic scholarships from CCU. Colorado Christian Head Coach Kevin Lubbers was also impressed with Wayne’s All-State Recognition and his contribution to the RCS Eagles State Semi-Finalist status earlier this year. The 6’4” point guard has led the Eagles basketball team in rebounds, assists, steals and 3-pointers. Colorado Christian University is a NCAA Division II university located in Lakewood, a suburb of Denver. CCU is a member of the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference, which includes 14 universities. Wayne has attended Rosehill Christian School since kindergarten and has played football, baseball and basketball for the school. He has thrived under the coaching of RCS coaches Ed Lamar and Jonathan Whitson. He has also been playing for Lamar’s AAU teams. While he will miss the personal attention and encouragement from both coaches, he is excited about the prospect of playing for CCU.

“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 June. 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.

Crazy Days of 5th Grade is the 3rd book in the Iggy the Iguana chapter book series for children which focuses on themes of the upper elementary classroom, including making new friends, positive changes in learning styles and respect for others. When Iggy’s new teacher, Mr. Gruff the goat, continues to eat his homework, he realizes his old ways of studying are over. It will take the mind of a creative genius and a lot of make-believe to revitalize Iggy’s concentration in class. What started off as a lonely, boring school year missing his best friend Snap Shell the turtle, turns into a suspenseful ride that includes a strange encounter with a crab and an unexpected trip to the hospital. With the help of his friends and his little sister’s stuffed animals, Iggy discovers a hidden talent proving what he once considered a problem was really a gift in disguise.
Reading level: Ages 7-11 Page count: 220 Themes include: Acceptance, Diversity, Empathy, Friendship, Bullying, Health
