HEARTHSTONE GARDEN CLUB NEWS<br />
The weather and temperatures are fabulous this time of year. It is a great<br />
time to get out in your yard and gardens to finish up anything left to do for<br />
the winter months. Even though our winters are very mild, some of our<br />
plants need extra care and attention. Many people suffered the plague of<br />
the Sodworm this fall, hopefully, our lawns will recover completely. Leaves<br />
are falling and now is the time to plan for tree trimming. It should be done<br />
when the sap is going down in <strong>November</strong>. We risk killing or damaging our<br />
trees if we trim too early, despite what some tree trimmers say.<br />
The <strong>Hearthstone</strong> Garden Club has been busy preparing for our Annual<br />
Plant Sale in the parking lot at the park on Saturday, <strong>November</strong> 5 th<br />
from 9 AM to 12 PM. If you want excellent plants for your fall and winter<br />
gardens, we will have great varieties of quality plants to choose from.<br />
Come by and check it out!<br />
“SAVE THE DATE” It is time for the <strong>Hearthstone</strong> Garden Clubs Annual<br />
Holiday Auction. The auction “Vintage Holiday’s” is scheduled for<br />
Saturday, <strong>November</strong> 19 th at <strong>Hearthstone</strong> Country Club, from 6:30 PM to<br />
10 PM. Admission is $5 per person. We have a great line up of items this<br />
year. There is always something for everyone! So bring your checkbook<br />
and help support our causes. We have added something new to our<br />
auction this year. We will have Authenticated Sports Memorabilia from<br />
Diamonds in the Rough Sports Memorabilia and Charity Auctions. The<br />
company representative, Steve Renwick, will be present to answer<br />
all of your questions and help with anything related to this part of the<br />
Auction. So all of you sports fans get ready and come on out to see what<br />
is available. *NOTE: DIAMONDS IN THE ROUGH ACCEPTS CREDIT CARDS!!!<br />

SAFETY TIPS - AVOID BEING A VICTIM<br />
1. Call the constable’s office anytime you see a suspicious person and do<br />
not let race, age or gender influence you calling (a suspicious person is<br />
anyone you do not recognize on your street). <br />
2. Call the constable’s office when you see a suspicious vehicle (any<br />
vehicle parked in front of your neighbor’s home or driving around your<br />
street that you don’t recognize).<br />
3. Always keep all your doors and windows locked even when you are at home.<br />
4. Always keep your overhead garage door in the down position. <br />
5. Remember neighbors looking out for neighbors are how the police<br />
catch the bad guys.<br />
6. Make sure to do a vacation watch whenever you go out of town. <br />
7. If someone comes to your door, always go to the door and acknowledge<br />
that you are there and remember to never open the door for anyone that<br />
you do not know. The bad guys in almost all cases do not want you to be<br />
home. Then always call the constable’s office so that we can check them<br />
out. When they leave your house, they are going to your neighbors. <br />
8. If you have children that stay at home alone, no matter what their age,<br />
they need to go to the door and have a preplanned story for whoever is<br />
there (my dad is working on the computer, he says to come back later).<br />
Then have them call the constable’s office. <br />
9. Never do business with people you don not know and trust. Never open the<br />
door for solicitors. If no one in the neighborhood buys anything from them,<br />
the companies that they work for will quit sending them into your subdivision. <br />
10. Always lock your vehicles and never leave anything of value in plain<br />
sight (covering up an item with a jacket doesn’t count).<br />
Our dispatch number is 281-463-6666 (please put this number in your<br />
cell phone as 911 constable or A constable so that it is one of the first<br />
contacts).<br />

Music Director Luke Kirkwood and choir members are<br />
extremely proud of these students and look forward to<br />
cheering them on as they compete in future auditions.<br />

CCS WARRIOR ATHLETES SET RECORDS<br />
The fall sports season at CyChristian has been a rewarding one for middle school and high<br />
school athletes. The Warrior football teams are experiencing one of the best seasons in<br />
school history. Cross country athletes set records when they competed on the toughest<br />
course in Texas and volleyball teams brought home trophies from multiple tournaments. In<br />
keeping with the athletic theme for <strong>2016</strong> of “character, courage, commitment,” CCS coaches<br />
have emphasized these qualities in practices, games and events to encourage the team<br />
through the season but, more importantly, to train them for life.<br />

LOCAL MENTORS NEEDED TO MENTOR<br />
ONE CHILD & CHANGE TWO LIVES!<br />
CROSSROADS is a nonprofit United Way agency that provides mentors<br />
for at risk youth between the ages of 10 and 17. Visit our website at www.<br />
crossroads-volunteers.org and consider running an ad like the one below<br />
in your Copperfield subdivision newsletter.<br />
Many young people don’t have strong positive adult influences in their<br />
lives to help guide them through these crucial years. Mentoring makes a<br />
difference in both the life of the youth and our community. A commitment<br />
of 1 hour weekly is all we ask. Help us shape the leaders of tomorrow by<br />
contacting Jan, CROSSROADS Volunteer Recruiter at Jan.gibbs@hcjpd.<br />
hctx.net or 713-295-2779. Mentor one child… change two lives.<br />

FOSTER CHILDREN:<br />
PREPARATION FOR ADULT LIVING (PAL)<br />
When foster children reach age 18, they are considered independent.<br />
That’s difficult for kids who have been wards of the state, with necessities<br />
arranged by caseworkers with state funds. Now they’ll have to figure out<br />
how to organize themselves and make their money last a whole month.<br />
Fortunately, Child protective Services offers them a program to help<br />
prepare for independence: Preparation for Adult Living (PAL). The year-long<br />
course culminates in an all-day workshop hosted by the National Council<br />
for Jewish Women (NCJW). The course is held at Junior Achievement’s<br />
BizTown, using computer kiosks sponsored by local businesses.<br />
Want to help with PAL or other NCJW programs that help change lives with<br />
hands-on community service? Contact info@ncjwhouston.org or see www.<br />

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR DREAM DACHSHUND RESCUE<br />
DREAM Dachshund Rescue, Education & Adoption Mission is a Houstonbased<br />
501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to rescuing abandoned<br />
Dachshunds and finding new homes for Dachshunds whose owners can no<br />
longer care for them. Our committed volunteers, working closely with local<br />
veterinarians, provide our Dachshunds with quality medical care and loving<br />
foster homes until they are adopted into carefully screened, forever homes.<br />
DREAM is currently looking for caring volunteers to provide temporary<br />
<strong>Hearthstone</strong> | <strong>November</strong> <strong>2016</strong><br />
foster care for our many rescued Dachshunds-in-need, currently awaiting<br />
adoption. Prior to their adoption, DREAM continues to pay for all<br />
medical care and monthly heart worm prevention. There is no long-term<br />
commitment required. Food, water, shelter and a soft place to rest is all<br />
you need to provide. The “love” just comes naturally.<br />
If you have a little room in your heart and in your home (and your family pets<br />
are up-to-date on their vaccines and monthly heart worm preventative),<br />
then you are who we are looking for! There is no feeling in the world like<br />
the unconditional love you’ll receive from a rescued Dachshund, plus the<br />
friendships you’ll make when you join the DREAM Team! The more foster<br />
homes we have, the more Dachshunds we can save. Please help save a life<br />
and consider fostering today!<br />
Questions? Please send us an email to: Contact-Us@DreamDachs.org and a<br />
volunteer will respond to you right away with all the information you need!<br />
Ready to Foster? Please visit our website at: www.dreamdachs.org and<br />
click on the FOSTER tab to fill out our online Foster Application.<br />
START THE NEW YEAR WITH A<br />
NEW BEST FRIEND AND FAMILY MEMBER!<br />
Loving Arms Pet Placement has an assortment of wonderful dogs and cats<br />
hoping for their forever homes. We have all different types of small to large<br />
dogs, mixed breeds and many wonderful cats to choose from.<br />
We are a foster-based rescue for dogs and cats. If you are not ready to<br />
commit to adopting a dog or cat permanently, the animals also need<br />
foster families. Besides providing food, water and a safe place to sleep,<br />
foster families socialize the animals so they are people friendly. Include<br />
the animal in your daily home life inside your home. Get to know them as<br />
individuals so you can share personality traits, likes/dislikes, anecdotes.<br />
Treat the animal like your own and train him/her, if possible.<br />
