Copper Grove Important Information 

COPPER GROVE IS ON FACEBOOK 

AND HAS A WEBSITE 

Copper Grove homeowners, please like and let your neighbors know 

about the new Copper Grove Neighborhood Facebook page where 

updates and important information regarding the Copper Grove 

neighborhood and other community news will be shared. 

For our Website, please contact First Service Residential to get the 

information you need to get registered for our website. 

ARCHITECTURAL MODIFICATIONS 

All modifications to the exterior of your home must be approved in 

advance. For your convenience, the application may be found on 

FirstService Residential’s website www.fsresidential.com.

HOW DO WE LOOK? 

Curb appeal has a big impact on your property value, even if your home 

is not for sale. Buyers evaluate the neighborhood, not just one house. 

Stand back from your house and take a close look to see if it needs a 

mini-makeover. Think about security as well. Has your shrubbery 

become overgrown, covering windows or blocking the sidewalk? Do 

low-hanging limbs obscure the front? Does the lawn have brown areas 

or weeds? Is the siding mildewed or paint peeling? You may want to ask a 

friend’s opinion; it is easy to overlook things we see everyday. Make plans 

now to spruce up. 

Cars that are parked in the street are also a turn-off to buyers. Make the 

extra effort to keep cars in the driveway. It looks better and is safer for 

your neighbors and your car. 

MOST COMMON DEED VIOLATIONS 

The Volume of letters sent regarding Violations continues to be an 

increasing expense for the Copper Grove Home Owners Association. All 

expenses incurred including postage to mail out fines, weigh seriously on 

the assessments paid by each homeowner. We request your compliance 

to help keep cost to a minimum and to keep our community as attractive 

as possible. 

TOP 5 VIOLATIONS 

1. Leaving trash cans out in public view. 

2. Not maintaining your yard. 

3. Not maintaining your fencing. 

4. Not maintaining your paint on your house/or mold on the siding. 

PET OWNERS 

Please be mindful to keep all dogs on a leash when walking them, to keep 

the community safe. Also please be respectful of your neighbors and 

clean up after your dog. First Service Residential gets a lot of complaints 

regarding these issues. 

HOMEOWNERS 

Please DO NOT TAPE FLIERS of any kind to our metal fencing. It removes 

the paint when the tape is pulled off. Thus they we need to be painted 

before they start to rust.

SCHOOL NEWS 

CFISD student filmmakers and actors wrap a day 

of filming their short film, “Behind the Scenes,” at 

Cy-Fair Federal Credit Union. The film, created by 

Cypress Ranch and Cypress Woods students, is a 

finalist in the Texas High School Shorts competition 

at South by Southwest. 

STUDENT FINALISTS IN SXSW 

COMPETITION PARTNER 

WITH CY-FAIR FCU 

A film created by Cypress Ranch High School students, 

“Behind the Scenes,” has been selected as a finalist 

for the Texas High School Shorts competition of the 

South by Southwest (SXSW) Film Festival in Austin. 

The fictional dark comedy film features a unique 

twist on a bank robbery and was partially filmed at 

the Cy-Fair Federal Credit Union Jones Road location 

through a partnership with Cy-Fair FCU President/ 

CEO Cameron Dickey. Cypress Ranch audio/video production (AVP) teacher Dustin Boucher worked with student filmmakers Ricky Martinez, Jake 

Billard, Sierra Marlborough, Blake Medlin, Paul Shank and Cypress Woods student Cami Beardmore to produce the film. Cypress Falls AVP teacher 

Rakesh Jacob also helped collaborate on the effort. 

As part of the partnership, the students also worked with Cy-Fair FCU to create a commercial promoting the credit union’s new virtual teller machines 

(VTMs). CFISD teachers Boucher, Jacob, Butch Stephens of Cypress Park, Sherry Frank of Cypress Falls and Lori Andrade of Cypress Woods assisted in 

the production of the commercial. 

Dickey made a cameo in the film as the bank manager. “Working with this amazingly talented group of storytellers at CFISD Cinema - students, 

teachers, credit union employees (and even a cameo by the Cy-Fair Houston Chamber of Commerce President Leslie Martone) - it is one of the most 

fun experiences I’ve ever had. “What they came up with is just so fun, silly and enjoyable,” Dickey said. “Everyone that has seen it has said it made them 

laugh out loud. The video truly exceeded our wildest expectations.” 

The students’ video will be unveiled at the Texas High School Shorts competition. Cy-Fair FCU’s new VTV commercial is now live on its YouTube 

channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKl0VfJaUwc. 


The Jersey Village Gold Dusters dance team prepares to enter NRG Stadium 

for a dress rehearsal prior to their performance during Super Bowl. 

The Cypress Lakes Sterling Stars dance team poses in front of NRG Stadium 

after completing their Super Bowl 51 halftime performance on field with

DANCE TEAMS PARTICIPATE IN 

SUPER BOWL 51 HALFTIME PERFORMANCE 

Dance team members representing the Cy-Fair Brigade, Cypress Lakes 

Sterling Stars and the Jersey Village Gold Dusters participated in the 

Super Bowl 51 halftime performance at NRG Stadium on February 5 th . 

Selected groups began rehearsing for the performance in the evenings 

at various Houston area stadiums, including NRG stadium. In total, 

students attended six rehearsals leading up to the event. As part of the performance requirements, students and directors were required to sign 

nondisclosure statements prohibiting them from discussing or sharing information regarding the halftime performance, which featured recording 

artist Lady Gaga. 

“Besides the halftime performance, we were then asked to be among the three schools that created the pre-game visuals. Being within 100 feet of 

President and Mrs. Bush, the award-winning cast of Hamilton and Luke Bryan allowed our students to act out many of the life-long lessons that dance/ 

drill team teaches: professionalism, work ethic and determination to give 100 percent at all times! I am truly grateful and thankful to our dancers and 

all of the time they devoted to this event, our administration for giving us tremendous support and our community for showing us how proud they are 

of these young ladies! This has been a dream come true!”

BOY SCOUTS 

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 self-esteem. As a result, when hard decisions have to be made, 

peer pressure can be resisted and the right choices can be made.

HOUSTON LIVESTOCK SHOW & RODEO MARCH 3-26 

RODEO PARADE : In 1937, planning had begun for the first Rodeo Parade 

leading up to the 1938 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. The first

bands with a Drum and Bugle Corp. In 1952, the Salt Grass Trail ride 

was the first trail ride that was formed by only a few men. The following 

year, the publicity from that ride attracted more people to join. All of the 

Trail Riders converge on Memorial Park to camp out for the night before 

heading down Memorial Drive to where it empties out onto Texas Ave 

to line up for the parade. The parade has approximately 115 different 

groups joining in the festivities. There are 15 trail rides, 20 floats, 15 

commercial wagons and stagecoaches and 10 to 15 university and 

high-school marching bands in addition to Show officials, other elected 

officials and dignitaries on horseback and in vehicles.

forgiveness of our sins. Special music will be provided by the Chancel

the Cy-Fair area for over 25 years. CAM offers assistance to those in 

need by providing financial assistance, food, clothing, employment 

assistance as well as GED & ESL classes. A huge part of this organization

Fortunately, Child protective Services offers them a program to help prepare 

for independence: Preparation for Adult Living (PAL). The year-long course 

culminates in an all-day workshop hosted by the National Council for 

Jewish Women (NCJW). The course is held at Junior Achievement’s BizTown, 

using computer kiosks sponsored by local businesses. Want to help with PAL 

or other NCJW programs that help change lives with hands-on community

EXERCISE

WITH FOUR FEET 

AND NO 

JUDGMENT! 

It is not too late to 

keep those New Year 

resolutions. Loving 

Arms Pet Placement is 

a foster-based rescue 

for dogs and cats and 

is always in need of 

foster families. We have 

small, medium and 

large dogs available 

for fostering. Without 

enough fosters, some dogs are boarded at a kennel. They would love to 

join your family and help you get more exercise. 

Tell Loving Arms Pet Placement rescue in what capacity you can help. 

Can your home only accommodate small dogs or can you foster big 

dogs? Can you take more than one animal at once? There is a lot more 

to fostering than providing food, water and a safe place to sleep. To 

attract potential adopters, the animal must be people friendly. Include 

the animal in your daily home life inside your home. Let your foster dog 

jog or walk with you. Visit a dog park and meet new friends. Get to know 

the dog as an individual so you can share personality traits, likes/dislikes, 

anecdotes. Treat the animal like your own and train him/her, if possible. 

Although you may feel sadness when your foster animal is adopted, 

please know that your efforts helped to prepare the cat or dog for his/ 

her forever home. 

Visit Loving Arms Pet Placement website at www.lovingarmspetplacement. 

com or visit us at Petsmart on Highway 6 and FM 529 each Saturday from 

11 AM until 5 PM. Start the new year with a new best friend and family 

member!

adopting a dog or cat permanently, the animals also need foster families. 

Besides providing food, water and a safe place to sleep, foster families 

socialize the animals so they are people friendly. Include the animal in your 

daily home life inside your home. Get to know them as individuals so you 

can share personality traits, likes/dislikes, anecdotes. Treat the animal like 

your own and train him/her, if possible. Although you may feel sadness 

when your foster animal is adopted, please know that your efforts helped

TAX SCAMS/CONSUMER ALERTS 

In recent years, thousands of people have lost millions of dollars and their personal 

information to tax scams and fake IRS communication. REMEMBER: The IRS doesn’t 

initiate contact with taxpayers by email, text messages or social media channels to 

request personal or financial information. In addition, IRS does not threaten taxpayers 

with lawsuits, imprisonment or other enforcement action. Being able to recognize 

these tell-tale signs of a phishing or tax scam could save you from becoming a victim. 

IRS-Impersonation Telephone Scams 

An aggressive and sophisticated phone scam targeting taxpayers, including recent 

immigrants, has been making the rounds throughout the country. Callers claim to be 

employees of the IRS, but are not. These con artists can sound convincing when they 

call. They use fake names and bogus IRS identification badge numbers. They may 

know a lot about their targets and they usually alter the caller ID to make it look like 

the IRS is calling. 

Victims are told they owe money to the IRS and it must be paid promptly through a 

pre-loaded debit card or wire transfer. If the victim refuses to cooperate, they are then 

threatened with arrest, deportation or suspension of a business or driver’s license. In 

many cases, the caller becomes hostile and insulting. Or, victims may be told they 

have a refund due to try to trick them into sharing private information. If the phone isn’t 

answered, the scammers often leave an “urgent” call back request. 

Note that the IRS will never: 

• Call to demand immediate payment using a specific payment method such as a 

prepaid debit card, gift card or wire transfer. Generally, the IRS will first mail you a bill 

if you owe any taxes. 

• Threaten to bring in local police or other law-enforcement groups to have you arrested 

for not paying. 

• Demand that you pay taxes without giving the opportunity to question or appeal the 

amount they say you owe. 

• Ask for credit or debit card numbers over the phone. 

Remember: Scammers Change Tactics - Aggressive and threatening phone calls by 

criminals impersonating IRS agents remain a major threat to taxpayers, but variations 

of the IRS impersonation scam continue year-round and they tend to peak when 

scammers find prime opportunities to strike. 

Surge in Email, Phishing and Malware Schemes 

The IRS saw an approximate 400 percent surge in phishing and malware incidents in 

the 2016 tax season. 

Scam emails are designed to trick taxpayers into thinking these are official communications 

from the IRS or others in the tax industry, including tax software companies. 

These phishing schemes can ask taxpayers about a wide range of topics. Emails 

can seek information related to refunds, filing status, confirming personal information 

ordering transcripts and verifying PIN information. 

Variations of these scams can be seen via text messages and the communications 

are being reported in every section of the country. 

When people click on these email links, they are taken to sites designed to imitate an 

official-looking website, such as IRS.gov. The sites ask for Social Security numbers 

and other personal information, which could be used to help file false tax returns. The 

sites also may carry malware, which can infect people’s computers and allow criminals 

to access your files or track your keystrokes to gain information.

GARDENING TIPS FOR MARCH 

VEGETABLES 

• Plant vegetables such as tomatoes, sweet corn and snap beans and pepper, as 

well as cucumbers, lima or butter beans, cantaloupe, okra (if the soil has warmed 

sufficiently - 70 degrees F. or higher), southern peas, pumpkin, squash, peanuts and 

watermelon. 

LAWN 

• Re-sod or replant as needed with turfgrasses adapted to this part of Texas and 

suited to the planting location (shade or sun). 

• When resodding semi-shaded areas with St. Augustine, use ONLY the variety 

Floratam for best pest resistance. See www.plantanswers.com/grass.htm. 

TREES AND SHRUBS 

• Plant container-grown trees and shrubs as soon as possible. In shady areas, where 

grass is difficult to grow, consider planting a dependable groundcover such as 

English ivy, Asian jasmine, vinca or one of the prostrate junipers. 

• Prune spring flowering and evergreen shrubs during early March. However, be sure 

to prune spring flowering shrubs after they have bloomed. 

• Fertilize with a pre-plant application of a slow-release fertilizer analysis such as 19 - 

5 - 9 at the rate of 3 pounds per 100 square feet of garden planting area. Early March 

is the ideal time to fertilize landscape plants because you give them food just before 

the spring growing season starts.
