NATIONAL BROWN-BAG IT DAY<br />
Happy National Brown-Bag-It Day! That’s right,<br />
<strong>May</strong> 25th is the day to celebrate the good old art<br />
of bringing your lunch from home. While checking<br />
out new places to eat by your office can be fun and<br />
sometimes grabbing a sandwich from the local deli<br />
feels like the easiest thing to do, packing your own<br />
lunch is a much healthier and less expensive choice.<br />
Even those healthy-seeming salads from the local cafe<br />
can hide some not-so-nutritious ingredients.<br />
Packing your own lunch for work may be more time<br />
consuming (although how long do you spend waiting<br />
in line at the sandwich shop?), but with some simple<br />
planning and a weekend trip to the grocery store, it<br />
can become an easy part of your routine. To help you<br />
on your way to a healthier lunchtime habit, we’ve<br />
created five easy lunch options for every day of the<br />
work week. With each bite, you’ll feed your body, calm<br />
your mind and rejuvenate for your afternoon!<br />
Brown Bag #1: Kale salad with radish greens and zesty<br />
lemon dressing<br />
After you’ve made it through your hectic Monday<br />
morning, treat yourself to this filling salad. Kale is<br />
an antioxidant-packed superfood that will help you<br />
detox from any weekend revelry, leaving your immune<br />
system recharged for the week ahead, while vitamin<br />
C-dense radish leaves rev up your immune system. This<br />
zesty lemon shallot dressing adds some inflammatory<br />
action for a revitalizing and nutritious lunch.<br />
Source: Wellness Today<br />
Brown Bag #2: Avocado on toast with seaweed chips<br />
Spread some hummus on whole wheat or glutenfree<br />
toast, then add a few slices of nutrient-packed<br />
avocado. Sprinkle with sea salt, pepper and a dash of<br />
cayenne for a spicy metabolism boost. This goes great<br />
with fiber- and protein-rich seaweed chips.<br />
Brown Bag #3: Fruit salad with a side of mixed nuts<br />
For a middle-of-the-week energy boost, try this lunch<br />
of fruits and nuts. Choose immunity-boosting citrus,<br />
fiber-filled apples, potassium-packed bananas or<br />
antioxidant-dense berries. The natural sugars of the<br />
fruits will give you a steady energy boost. Go nuts<br />
with your nuts! Walnuts are filled with omega-3’s and<br />
antioxidants; almonds pack vitamin E, folic acid and<br />
tons of other vitamins and minerals; pistachios are<br />
high in fiber; cashews have bone-building magnesium;<br />
pecans can help ward off heart disease; Brazil nuts<br />
are bursting with selenium - and they’ll all give you<br />
enough protein to power through the afternoon.<br />
Brown Bag #4: Tomato-hummus sandwich paired with<br />
apple slices and almond butter<br />
This veggie sandwich swaps out the meat for a thick<br />
slice of heart-healthy tomato. Add a few slices of<br />
red or white onion and place between two slices of<br />
whole wheat or gluten-free bread, evenly spread<br />
with hummus. Add hunger-satisfying apple slices and<br />
protein-rich almond butter for a sweet side.<br />

CFISD’S FAIR CREEK - <strong>2017</strong> CITY OF HOUSTON<br />
HIGH SCHOOL HOCKEY CHAMPIONS<br />
The 2016-<strong>2017</strong> Interscholastic Hockey League(ISHL) season concluded<br />
on Friday, March 10 th with Cy-Fair’s Fair Creek HS team prevailing with a<br />
hard fought, dramatic 2-1 win over Cinco Ranch on the Frozen Surface at<br />
the Willowbrook Aerodrome.<br />
The Fair Creek HS Team whose players reside mainly in the Cypress area<br />
won the regular season league championship with a record of 17-4-1.<br />
Next up for the team was the 1 st round of the playoffs where Fair Creek<br />
defeated Klein 5-2 to advance to the round robin tournament. In the<br />
round robin, Fair Creek beat Memorial West 7-1, lost a nail biter to Cinco<br />
Ranch 1-2 and came back to beat Cy-Woods 6-3. The top 2 teams in the<br />
round robin would advance to the ISHL Championship Game. Those two<br />
were Fair Creek and Cinco Ranch, which would be a rematch of the Fair<br />
Creek’s only round robin loss. The matchup for the ISHL’s Justice Varsity<br />
High School Championship Cup was set in a one game winner take all.<br />
In the FINALS, Fair Creek came out strong with constant pressure in<br />
Cinco Ranch’s defensive end of the ice. Fair Creek’s only 2 goals of the<br />
game were scored by Sam Robinson 8 seconds apart in the 2 nd period.<br />
Fair Creek and Kingwood Senior Robinson’s 1 st goal was a one timer off<br />
a hustling Cy-Fair Junior Tyler McLeroy’s pinpoint pass. Robinson’s game<br />
winner came only 8 seconds later as he tallied his second goal from a<br />
lazer pass from Cy-Creek Senior Jaxon Sharp, which beat Cinco Ranch’s<br />
goalie Randy Miller. Miller was stout all night long stopping 35 shots and<br />
only allowing 2 to cross the goal line to keep Cinco in the game. Fair Creek<br />
ended up out shooting Cinco Ranch 37-13!<br />
This is Fair Creek’s 3 rd City Championship in the past 10 years….Jaxon<br />
Sharp’s 2 nd City Championship in his 4 year Varsity career, Tyler McLeroy’s<br />
2 nd High School Championship (one with his JV team in 2015 and with<br />
this year’s Varsity Championship) and Caleb was the 3 rd Newport<br />
brother (joining Nathan and Noah) from Langham Creek to win a City<br />
Championship with the Fair Creek team.<br />
The Fair Creek and 9 other High School teams in the Houston area will now<br />
play in the Spring /Summer recreational High School league with games<br />
on Sunday nights at the Willowbrook Aerodrome. The <strong>2017</strong>-18 high<br />
school regular season will run from October ’17 - March ’18. For more<br />

ROSEHILL CHRISTIAN SCHOOL<br />
We give all of the glory to God for our victories at the TAPPS State Academic,<br />
Debate & Speech Championships which were held April 3 rd -5 th at the Waco<br />
Convention Center. As a team, RCS placed third overall out of all TAPPS 3A<br />
schools. This was our first year returning to 3A and the competition was<br />
very stiff. Though RCS came in 3 rd , we narrowly missed winning the entire<br />
championship by a mere 12 points, crushing our point total from last<br />
year by over 40 points. More than that, RCS was the STATE CHAMPION in<br />
Speech. We placed in more events than ever before, events that RCS has<br />
never even placed in before. RCS claimed seven individual state titles in<br />
various events. Senior Rachel Buckhoff, who earned three gold medals and<br />
one bronze, was also awarded the prestigious “Virginia WIrth Distinguished<br />
Speaker Award” given to the top speech competitor in the entire state.<br />

PEANUTS CHARACTERS DELIGHT AUDIENCES IN CCS SPRING MUSICAL<br />
The CCS Fine Arts Department presented four magical performances of the classic “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown.” Audiences were delighted watching<br />
the lovable Peanuts characters come to life through the talented fine arts students - both on stage and backstage. Some crowd favorites were “My Blanket<br />
and Me,” Linus’ ode to his beloved blanket, “Beethoven Day,” Schroeder’s rocking tribute to the great Ludwig van Beethoven and “The Baseball Song,” which<br />
tells the endearing story of Charlie Brown’s epic strike out. Of course audiences were also charmed by Lucy’s failed attempt to gain Schroeder’s interest in<br />
the song “Schroeder,” Sally’s philosophical musings in “My New Philosophy” and Snoopy’s eleventh hour Fosse turned gospel number, “Suppertime.” This<br />
production was entered in the Tommy Tune Awards and while the cast and crew are anxious for nominations to come out, they are all confident in the fact<br />
that no matter what happens, they put on a fabulous and successful show that brought glory and honor to our Heavenly Father. Please view the photos of<br />
the production via the fine arts page of CypressChristian.org.<br />

time of 1:58.68. During the state meet, Elliott was presented with the boys Regional Swimmer of the Meet Award for the TAPPS East Texas Region.<br />

10 WAYS TO PREVENT HEAT STROKE IN STUDENT-ATHLETES<br />
By DAVID JANDA, M.D.<br />
During one four year period, eighteen student-athletes died from heat stroke.<br />
It is imperative that, as parents, we recognize the signs of heat-related illness<br />
and take steps to prevent any more tragedies. Here are ten ways to prevent heat<br />
stroke among football players, guidelines that are applicable to every sport and<br />
recreational activity. • Acclimatize to heat gradually. Practices for the first 14 days<br />
should be shorter and less intense, as should practices on abnormally hot or humid<br />
days. In addition athletes should be encouraged to initiate their own conditioning<br />
program several months prior to the beginning of the season. During the hottest<br />
weather practice sessions should be scheduled in cooler parts of the day. • Account<br />
for heat and humidity. Both the temperature and relative humidity should be taken<br />
into account in determining the length of practice sessions. It has been suggested<br />
that if the sum of the temperature and relative humidity are greater than or equal to<br />
160, special precautions must be taken. If the sum is greater than 180, practice and<br />
or games should be cancelled. • Provide for frequent breaks. Adjust the activity<br />
level and provide frequent rest periods during hot weather (at least 15 minutes per<br />
hour of practice). Athletes should rest in shaded areas; helmets should be removed,<br />
and jerseys should be loosened or removed. • Rehydrate. Cold water or sports<br />
drinks should be available in unlimited quantities to players. Scheduled water<br />
breaks should be strictly enforced. • No salt tablets. Salt should be replaced through<br />
salting of food, not salt tablets. • Weigh athletes before and after practice. Athletes<br />
should be weighed before and after each practice to monitor water loss. Weight<br />
loss greater than 3% indicates a substantial risk and 5% a significant danger to the<br />
student athlete. • No heavy or wet clothing. During practice athletes should wear<br />
cooling clothing such as shorts and fish net jerseys. Sweat saturated t-shirts should<br />
be changed often because they retain heat. Helmets should only be used sparingly in<br />
hot weather. • Parent monitoring. Parents should monitor all practices and games,<br />
with the responsibility shared on a rotating basis among all parents of student<br />
athletes. If a parent observes an unsafe situation developing, he or she should<br />
immediately bring it to the attention of the coach. • Identify athletes at greater<br />
risk. Some athletes are more susceptible to heat illness than others. Identify and<br />
observe closely those at greatest risk of heat illness, including those who are poorly<br />
conditioned, overweight, have an acute illness, or have cystic fibrosis, diabetes, or<br />
mental retardation. Student athletes with a previous history of heat illness should<br />
be watched closely during practices and hot weather. • Learn the warning signs. It<br />
is imperative that all coaches, parents, and players are on the lookout for signs<br />
of dehydration or heat illness, such as fatigue, lethargy, inattention, stupor, and/<br />
or awkwardness. An athlete exhibiting any of these signs should be immediately<br />
removed from participation, cooled down and placed in a shaded environment.<br />

COPPER CREEK MEADOWS COMMUNITY<br />
GIRL SCOUTS OF SAN JACINTO COUNCIL<br />
Leaders and their daughters had a terrific weekend together at<br />
our annual Leader-Daughter event in April. There was wonderful<br />
weather for all the outdoor activities! When those attending got<br />
tired of kayaking or playing in the river, conditions were just right<br />
for basking in the sun on the riverbank! There were crafts and<br />
campfires, singing, s’mores, zip lines and many other activities,<br />
good food and a chance to kick back and relax together at camp.<br />
The hit of this year’s talent show was a hilarious “synchronized<br />
swim” routine. Our Dutch oven cook-off produced a number of<br />
tasty results. This year’s delicious winner was called “Bye, Bye, Miss<br />
American Pie.” Each year, campers take judging this contest VERY<br />
seriously and make sure to sample each entry. Many thanks to Julie<br />
<strong>May</strong>er and her volunteers for another great event!<br />
Troop 113005 has been working on learning the Girl Scout Law.<br />
They made a cute craft to help them memorize the Law! Troop<br />
113009 learned about space and how some characteristic traits<br />
can be used for good or evil. The earned their “Scouts Rule the<br />
Galaxy”patch. They also demonstrated their skill with light sabers!<br />
Troop 113035 is working on remodeling the butterfly garden at<br />
Lowery Elementary.<br />
Our final Community event for the year will be a Bridging ceremony<br />
in <strong>May</strong>. At this time, troops moving on to the next level of Girl<br />
Scouting are recognized and celebrated.<br />
Summer, of course, is the time for Girl Scout Camp. San Jacinto<br />
Council offers resident, day and twilight camps for Girl Scouts of all<br />
ages. Some of the money earned by Girl Scout Cookie Sales helps<br />
to support our camps and programs. At camp, girls learn to make<br />
new friends, learn new outdoor skills and improve the skills they<br />
acquired LAST year! Camp is where you learn all those silly camp<br />
songs and traditions and learn more about all the things that Girl<br />
Scouts do. Camp is also the place that you DO them!<br />
Girl Scouting is open to all girls ages 5 (must be in kindergarten)<br />
through 18, who are willing to accept the Girl Scout Promise and<br />
Law. Girls may join at any level and no previous Scouting experience<br />
is required. Older girls, whose schedules do not allow for troop<br />
activities may join as individually registered Girl Scouts. Don’t<br />
forget that many of our most exciting opportunities are available<br />
to older girls.<br />
Copper Creek Meadows Community serves girls in the residence<br />
areas for the elementary schools listed below, as well as the<br />
corresponding middle and high schools. Home schooled and<br />
private school students are always welcome.<br />
Our elementary schools are: Birkes, Fiest, Hairgrove, Horne, Kirk,<br />
Lee, Lieder, Lowery, Metcalf, Owens, Tipps, Wilson, St. Elizabeth Ann<br />

BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA - COPPERHEAD DISTRICT<br />
For 100 years, Scouting programs have instilled in youth the values<br />
found in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Today, these values are just<br />
as relevant in helping youth grow to their full potential as they were<br />
in 1910. Scouting helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence,<br />
ethics, leadership skills, outdoor skills and citizenship skills that<br />
influence their adult lives.<br />
The Boy Scouts of America provides youth with programs and activities<br />
that allow them to:<br />
• Try new things.<br />
• Provide service to others.<br />
• Build self-confidence.<br />
• Reinforce ethical standards.<br />
Scouting provides youth with a sense that they are important as<br />
individuals while promoting activities that lead to personal responsibility<br />
and high self-esteem. As a result, when hard decisions have to be made,<br />
peer pressure can be resisted and the right choices can be made.<br />
Scouting provides a rewarding experience for boys ages 5 to 21. Scouting<br />
through the local Packs and Troops teach outdoor and life skills which help<br />
our youth Be Prepared. Your area is serviced by the BSA Sam Houston Area<br />
Counsel - Copperhead District which includes 23 Cub Scout Packs (boys 5<br />
to 10 years old), 13 Troops (boys from 11 to 18 years old) and 10 Venturing<br />
units (boys and girls from 14 to 21). Our Units typically meet weekly.<br />
Many of our units are supported by the local Elementary Schools<br />
including: Birkes, Copeland, Duryea, Fiest, Hemmingway, Holmsley,<br />
Horne, Jowell, Lowery, Metcalf, Owens, Postma, Robinson, Sheridan,<br />
Tipps, Walker and Wilson.<br />

One of the largest non-celebrity tournaments in the Houston area, the<br />
B.F. Adam Golf Classic is a prime example of our trustees and community<br />
business partners working together to raise scholarship funds for<br />
students of Cypress Fairbanks ISD. This tournament has successfully<br />
raised over 2.7 million dollars. CFEF was established in 1970 as a nonprofit<br />
to raise money to fund a scholarship for high school graduates in<br />
the area. Over the past 46 years, the Foundation has grown tremendously<br />
through the efforts of the Board of Trustees and the generosity of the Cy-<br />
Fair Community. The Foundation has awarded more than $7 million in<br />
scholarships to 1,400 graduating seniors. CFEF is a 501(c)3 non-profit<br />

ACTS of Wisdom grew out of founder Pastor Brad Otto’s experiences in<br />
Ethiopia and the Book of Acts where an Ethiopian Eunuch asks the Apostle<br />
Philip about Jesus. Philip is stunned that he doesn’t know, to which the<br />
eunuch replies, “No one has ever taught me.” Part of the cycle of poverty<br />
is not having access to quality education or having inadequate supplies<br />
for education. 145 million children in the world do not have access to<br />
education, yet children still dream of becoming doctors, lawyers and<br />
teachers. At ACTS of Wisdom we believe every child, everywhere, should<br />
have access to education and to teachers willing to take time to teach<br />
them. Our hope is that through bettering the education opportunities of<br />
children, we might be able to help end the cycle of poverty and begin to<br />
have peace in our world.<br />

MOTHER’S DAY - A DAY FOR MOM<br />
Mother’s Day has its roots in ancient Greek festivals honoring Rhea, the<br />
Mother of the Gods. The modern American holiday officially began in<br />
1914, when President Woodrow Wilson declared the second Sunday in<br />
<strong>May</strong> a day to honor all the mothers. Here are some tips on celebrating<br />
Mother’s Day on <strong>May</strong> 14th!<br />
1. Deliver the classic Mother’s Day treat: breakfast in bed on an oldfashioned<br />
wicker tray table. Cook her favorite morning fare, mix her an<br />
eye-opening mimosa and tuck her favorite flowers into a small crystal<br />
vase. If the tray has slots on the sides, fill them with small presents (or big<br />
presents in small packages).<br />
2. Take your mother on a trip with Mother’s Day sandwiched in the<br />
middle. Make it as simple as a long weekend at the beach or as elaborate<br />
as a trip across the States.<br />
3. Surprise your mother with a visit if she lives far away.<br />
4. Deliver her present by way of a treasure hunt. Lead her on as long a<br />
trail as you think she’ll find amusing, with her present waiting at the end.<br />
5. Honor your mother’s memory if she’s no longer living. Send a donation<br />
to her favorite charity or spend the day working for her favorite cause. Do<br />
things she taught you to love.<br />
6. Thank the women who produced your favorite people - send cards,<br />
flowers or notes to the mothers of your friends, even if you’ve never met<br />
them.<br />
7. Throw a Mother’s Day party for your mother, your friends and their<br />
mothers. Consider a festive spring brunch.<br />
8. Best tip: tell mom you love her.<br />
