rash of car break-ins. There are so many 

ways our neighbors can help us, we just 

need an easier way to connect with them. 

Please invite all residents to sign up for 

the Nextdoor.com APP for their respective 

neighborhood.

posts from Sergeant Adam Lightfoot 

(HCSO) to share information with their 

neighbors.

Copperfield Place Village 

(CPV) A WORD FROM THE BOARD 

The Board hopes all of our Copperfield residents had a wonderful and happy Thanksgiving with your 

family and friends. Now we wish everyone a Merry Christmas and New Years! We remind you that we will 

again have a 1 st , 2 nd and 3 rd place winners for the best Christmas decoration contest. The drive through 

will be done on Saturday, December 17 th to select the winners. 

TRASH DAYS!!! 

Trash days are on Tuesdays and Fridays. The days were erroneously published from an incorrect 

monthly letter back in May. If trash day falls on a major holiday, it will not be picked up until the following 

trash pick up day. For example if the holiday falls on a Tuesday, trash will not be picked up until Friday. 

We are sorry for the confusion. 

ANNUAL ASSESSMENTS 

You should have received by mid-November the Annual Assessment Statement which is due by January 

1 st . Please contact SCS is you have not received it. It becomes delinquent if payment is not received by 

February 1 st ! SCS also can work out a payment plan if you cannot pay it in full. 

POOL AND PARKS COMMITTEE:

THE POOL WHEN CLOSED WE WILL CONSIDER YOU TO BE TRESPASSING AND THE SHERIFF’S DEPT. WILL

IF YOU SEE SOMETHING SUSPICIOUS, CALL AND REPORT IT! Program your phone for the non-emergency 

phone number to the Sheriff’s department (713-221-6000 #1) or crimes in progress dial 911. You do not 

have to give out your name. 

IMPORTANT NOTICE: As a reminder the Community Center will continue to handle baseball field

Northmead Village 

(NM) BUILDING YOUR COMMUNITY: INSPIRING WORDS 

“In any community there’s a strong pull home. People want to 

return, see their community get better economically and socially. 

You can build those community-grown opportunities for the 

kids who’ve graduated from college to return home, to provide 

businesses and support things going on. It’ll only happen through 

education.” - Denise Juneau 

(NM) INTRODUCING THE BOARD AND VOLUNTEERS 

We thought it would be a great idea to introduce our residents to Northmead 

Village Community Volunteers and Board Members. This month, we would like 

to introduce Northmead HOA Board member, Tony Ashford. 

Tony has lived in the Copperfield area for fifteen plus years and likes staying 

active in his community to make it a safer place to live. He is presently on two 

Boards, Northmead Village Community Association and is the chairman of 

the Crime Watch Committee. He works with our contracted HCSO officers to 

promote security and crime awareness, monitors the Contract Law Enforcement 

Agencies’ performance and to maintain a neighborhood Crime Watch program. 

Tony invites you to the next Crime Watch meeting on December 20, 2016, at 

6:30 PM at the Copperfield Community Center located at 15409 Willow River 

Drive (next to Labay Jr. High). All Copperfield residents are welcome to attend. 

(NM) VOLUNTEERS - HOLIDAY DECORATIONS CONTEST 

A Christmas Decoration Contest Committee is forming so if you are interested, 

please send in your contact information. We are also putting together an 

Easter Egg Hunt Event so sign up for that committee if you want to get 

involved. What better way to meet new people and make new friends than 

to work on the projects that make our community better? Please contact 

grahammanagement@sbcglobal.net if you can volunteer to help with planning 

and/or at the events.

(NM) UPCOMING EVENTS 

Crime Watch Meeting - December 20 th (see below for details) 

Christmas Decoration Contest - Judging will be the week of December 19 th -23 rd 

(NM) NORTHMEAD HOLIDAY LIGHTS CONTEST 

Northmead Village will give 1 st , 2 nd and 3 rd prizes to each of the three sections in 

Northmead. Judges will be looking at the houses the week before Christmas 

and the winners will be announced in the January Newsletter. So, let’s see 

some awesome creative holiday home decorating this season! 

Holiday Lights Trivia - Inventors, Thomas Edison and Edward Johnson (1880 

&1882) and Albert Sadacca (1917) - Thomas Edison, the inventor of the first 

successful practical light bulb, created the very first strand of electric lights. 

During the Christmas season of 1880, these strands were strung around the 

outside of his Menlo Park Laboratory. Railroad passengers traveling by the 

laboratory got their first look at an electrical light display. But it would take 

almost forty years for electric Christmas lights to become the tradition that we 

all know and love. 

(NM) CRIME WATCH - COPPERFIELD CRIME WATCH 

The next Crime Watch 2016 Meeting Date is December 20 th at 6:30 PM in the 

Copperfield Community Center. 

The Crime Watch Committee wants to remind you to Lock Your Car Doors! 

This one helpful rule seems so simple and yet is so often ignored. A thief 

looking for a car to steal is more likely to go for the vehicle whose owner was 

kind enough to complete his first step for him and has given him open access 

to everything inside. 

Don’t Leave Valuables in Sight - Smash-and-grab thieves typically aren’t 

criminal masterminds who craft clever schemes to swipe your stuff. Most are 

casual opportunists. They see something they like and break in and take it. So 

keep your valuables out of sight. 

Help make Copperfield a safer place! 

• Save the Sheriff Dept. phone number on your mobile phone! 713-221- 6000. 

• Be aggressive in calling in all suspicious behavior and/or suspicious vehicle activity. 

• Tell your friends and neighbors! The stronger we are as a community in 

fighting crime, the safer we can make Copperfield. 

Watch for School Zones! There are TWO School zones on West Road. 

• When driving in school zones, watch out for student pedestrians. 

• Slow down and watch for children congregating near bus stops. 

• Look for children who might dart into the street without looking for traffic. 

• Know and obey the laws concerning traffic and school buses in Texas. 

NO right on Red at Pebble Lake and West Road. 

This is a designated NO RIGHT ON RED intersection for protection of the 

oncoming traffic that cannot be seen by drivers waiting on Pebble Lake.

(SD) ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW 

COMMITTEE 

Homeowners are reminded that approval from the 

Architectural Review Committee must be obtained 

before any changes or improvements are made to the 

exterior of your property. This includes painting and 

roof replacement, to name a few. Applications can be 

obtained from the www.coppperfield.org website. 

(SD) FROM THE BOARD 

The Board encourages homeowners to let them know 

if you are experiencing personal difficulties that 

prohibit you from properly maintaining your home or 

paying your HOA fees. Life happens. If you are going 

through a sickness, financial crisis or some other 

life challenge, please let us know so we can address 

the issue on a case-by-case basis. Contact Graham 

Management at grahammanagement@sbcglobal.net. 

Board meetings are held on the third Wednesday 

of every month at 6:30 PM, at the Copperfield 

Community Center, 15409 Willow River Drive, 

Houston, Texas 77095. Contact Graham Management 

to be placed on the agenda. 

(SD) TRASH DAY

Tuesday and Friday. Recycling is on Tuesday. Trash 

and recycling bins must be stored out of view until

(WC) HELPFUL HOLIDAY CRIME WATCH TIPS 

As the hectic, holiday season approaches and the crime rate increases, it pays to remember the following: 

• Be alert and aware of your surroundings at all times. Keep packages and purchases hidden 

in the trunk of the vehicle or out of easy viewing sight. Remember others could be watching 

as you exit stores or the mall - so do not load your vehicle until you are finished shopping and 

are ready to depart. 

• Label all outdoor Christmas displays with your name, address, phone number and email 

address. In the event decorations are stolen and recovered, you will get your items back. 

• Make sure Facebook and other networking sites are filtered so only those you want to read 

messages receive them. Cyber-savvy thieves are beginning to stalk social networking sites. 

Individuals who post photos of expensive gift items and post vacation plans become easy targets. 

• Use the Sheriff Department’s Vacation Watch if going out of town over the holidays. Log onto 

Copperfield.org, select Westcreek Village, then select Westcreek Crime Watch website and 

finally select Vacation Watch forms. After downloading form, mail or fax the form at least 5 

days before the watch begins. 

• Most importantly, always lock your vehicles, doors, windows and set your alarms. 

• If you see something suspicious, say something by calling the Sheriff Deputy’s non 

emergency number 713-221-6000 #6.

CYCHRISTIAN STUDENTS PACK CHRISTMAS BOXES 

Elementary students and middle school National Junior Honor Society 

members of Cypress Christian School participated in the Operation Christmas 

Child project through Samaritan’s Purse. The organization works together 

with churches, schools, youth groups and families to assemble shoe boxes

BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA - COPPERHEAD DISTRICT 

For 100 years, Scouting programs have instilled in youth the values found 

in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Today, these values are just as relevant 

in helping youth grow to their full potential as they were in 1910. Scouting 

helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership 

skills, outdoor skills and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives. 

The Boy Scouts of America provides youth with programs and activities 

that allow them to: 

• Try new things. 

• Provide service to others. 

• Build self-confidence. 

• Reinforce ethical standards. 

Scouting provides youth with a sense that they are important as individuals 

while promoting activities that lead to personal responsibility and high selfesteem. 

As a result, when hard decisions have to be made, peer pressure 

can be resisted and the right choices can be made. 

Scouting provides a rewarding experience for boys ages 5 to 21. Scouting 

through the local Packs and Troops teach outdoor and life skills which help 

our youth Be Prepared. Your area is serviced by the BSA Sam Houston Area 

Counsel - Copperhead District which includes 23 Cub Scout Packs (boys 5 

to 10 years old), 13 Troops (boys from 11 to 18 years old) and 10 Venturing 

units (boys and girls from 14 to 21). Our Units typically meet weekly. 

Many of our units are supported by the local Elementary Schools including: 

Birkes, Copeland, Duryea, Fiest, Hemmingway, Holmsley, Horne, Jowell, 

Lowery, Metcalf, Owens, Postma, Robinson, Sheridan, Tipps, Walker and Wilson. 

Other Community groups include: Autumn Creek Baptist Church, Beck and 

Masten Automotive, Cornerstone United Methodist Church, Copperfield 

Church, Crossbridge Church, Cy-Fair Kiwanis Club, Deerfield Village HOA, 

LDS Bear Creek and Copperfield Wards, Middlegate Village HOA, Peace 

Community Church, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church and Thornton 

Middle School.

GIVE AN HOUR NETWORK 

Provides Free Counseling to Troops and Families 

Since September 11, 2001, 1.8 million troops have been deployed in 

Afghanistan, Iraq and the Persian Gulf, with 17 percent of returning troops 

suffering traumatic brain injuries or post-traumatic stress disorder. Given 

the military culture’s emphasis on confidence, strength and bravery, 

many service members are reluctant to expose personal vulnerabilities to 

professional counselors. Give an Hour provides services that are separate 

from the military establishment, offering options to service members who 

might otherwise fail to seek or receive appropriate care. 

Give an Hour is a nonpartisan, nonprofit national network of mental 

health professionals providing free counseling services to returning 

troops and their families. Give an Hour offers services to veterans of the 

wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and their family members. Family members 

are loosely defined to include married or unmarried partners, parents, 

siblings, aunts/uncles—anyone connected to the veteran who is suffering 

a psychological effect related to the veteran’s service. 

Banyan Counseling Network has an office located near the North Cypress 

Medical Center and is trained to provide individual and family counseling. 

Family support groups are also currently forming. People interested in 

receiving services through Give an Hour are encouraged to call 281-855- 

1982 or log on to www.banyancounseling.com, (click Military Families 

link) or www.giveanhour.org to determine availability or to locate another 

provider in your area. 

BEREAVEMENT SUPPORT GROUP 

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Community church at 6646 Addicks 

Satsuma Road, Houston, Texas 77084-1599, has a Bereavement Support

of the month, in Room 11 in the Family Life Center from 7-8 PM. If you need 

help through the difficult time following the death of a loved one, come join 

us for support. For more information, you can contact Deborah Jackson

BEAR CREEK COUNSELING CENTER BAPTIST CHURCH

Counseling topics may include marital issues, marriage enrichment,

to support this ministry, there is no fee for counseling services. The only 

time a fee is applied is if a confirmed appointment is missed. Appointments

schedule an appointment, interested individuals may call 361-575-5151.
