AMENITY ACCESS - Stone Gate, Canyon Lakes, Canyon Lakes Village, Canyon Lakes West and Miramesa are in the same homeowner’s
association, S-G Owners Association. All residents are welcome to use the amenities at all locations. To sign up for Stone Gate amenities,
residents of Canyon Lakes West and/or Miramesa must go to the Recreation Center at Stone Gate and show them a copy of their driver’s
license to show proof of residency and then they can register there. The two recreation centers are on different computer systems and in order
to use the Stone Gate amenities, residents must sign up on their system and vice versa. Canyon Lakes West and Miramesa are on the same
computer system, so you only have to sign up at one or the other, not both.

DOG WALKING ETIQUETTE
Good dog-walking etiquette means
picking up the poop after your dog is
finished. This is as simple as taking a
plastic grocery bag, turning it inside out
and placing your hand inside and using
the bag as a plastic glove, then turn the
bag back out and take the bag with you
where you can dispose of it properly.
That’s the courteous thing to do.
Don’t get caught without extra poop
bags, particularly if you’re going on a
long walk. (P.S. This is a great way to
recycle all those plastic grocery bags!)

BEWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS
Remember, we do live in a big city. We have all the elements here and
we have people looking to take advantage of people they perceive as
victims. If a crime is going to occur, the offender must have three things
to accomplish the task: desire, ability and opportunity. Personally, there
is not much that you can do about the offender’s desire and ability.
However, you can take steps to control the offender’s opportunity.
• BE AWARE of your surroundings! Giving the appearance of not paying
attention and not being alert is what offenders look for in a victim. Turn
off your ipod/headphones or cell phone to reduce your risk of being a
crime victim.
• You should never walk alone! However, if you must walk alone, have a
plan and choose open well lighted and well traveled areas.
• When walking you should walk facing traffic. Do not read while walking
or standing on the street. Be cautious of drivers that stop to talk to you or
are not paying attention to the road.
• Avoid being on the street alone if you are upset or distracted.
• Always tell someone where you’ll be and what time you are going to
return.
• If you think you are being followed: cross the street, change directions,
keep looking back so the person knows you can’t be surprised. Look for a
crowded area and move quickly.
• TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS: If something “feels wrong”, something
probably is wrong.
• If you find yourself in a situation with an assailant, don’t be afraid to
loudly call attention to what the assailant is doing (“Help!” “Fire!” “Get
your hands off me!” “This stranger is bothering me...”, etc.).
• Report suspicious persons to the police immediately!
• Keep emergency numbers near your phone.
• Do not leave messages on your door or voice mail, etc., indicating you
are away or when you will return.
• Be cautious of telephone surveys and NEVER...give out any personal
information.
14 May 2017 | Stone Gate

• Do not prop open doors or gates. This will put everyone at risk.
• Always LOCK your doors, garage and windows.
• Keep access cards, keys and remotes in a safe place. Do not leave them
lying out in the open. Never leave them on a table or shelf near your door.
It takes less than 10 seconds to look into your open door and steal items
from a table or shelf near the door.
DEED RESTRICTION REMINDERS
DOGS: Please remember barking can be a nuisance to your neighbors. Do
your best to be respectful of the noise level on your property. Pets must
be kept on a leash when walking and don’t forget pick up after them.
LOUD NOISE/MUSIC: Domestic neighbor noise, such as DIY work or loud
music, is the most common cause of noise complaint. It is advisable to
take steps to resolve the problem yourself before filing a complaint with
the management company, such as speaking face-to-face or writing a
letter to your neighbor to explain how you are affected. If you have been
unable or not felt comfortable with resolving a problem with domestic
neighbor noise, please call Top Gun at 281-905-2522 or 713-907-2744, so
they may ask your neighbor to lower the noise.
TRASH: As a friendly reminder trash days are on Mondays and Thursdays
for Stone Gate and Wednesdays and Saturdays for Canyon Lakes West.
TREES: Dead trees and/or missing trees are a violation of your deed
restrictions. If tree stakes are not attached to the tree or if the ties are
an inch or two into the tree - they need to be removed. Thank you for
helping to keep our community a beautiful place to live!
FISHING IN THE LAKES: Not permitted at any time. Please refrain from
this activity.
BASKETBALL GOALS IN STREET: While basketball goals are permitted in
your driveway while being used, they are not allowed in the streets. Please
refrain from blocking the ingress/egress of traffic or emergency vehicles.

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

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

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

courage, confidence and character, who make the world a
better place.

Scouting News Continued...
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.
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.

GOLF TOURNAMENTS
29TH ANNUAL B. F. ADAM GOLF CLASSIC
The Cy-Fair Educational Foundation (CFEF) will hold its 29 th Annual B. F.
Adam Golf Classic at BlackHorse Golf Club on May 11, 2017. For the past
7 years, Cypress Fairbanks Medical Center Hospital, a Cy-Fair Educational
Foundation Partner, has generously underwritten this tournament.
Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson and IBI Group have been Platinum
Sponsors for more than 10 years.
Serving your community
for over 20 Years!
One of the largest non-celebrity tournaments in the Houston area, the
B.F. Adam Golf Classic is a prime example of our trustees and community
business partners working together to raise scholarship funds for
students of Cypress Fairbanks ISD. This tournament has successfully
raised over 2.7 million dollars. CFEF was established in 1970 as a nonprofit
to raise money to fund a scholarship for high school graduates in
the area. Over the past 46 years, the Foundation has grown tremendously
through the efforts of the Board of Trustees and the generosity of the Cy-
Fair Community. The Foundation has awarded more than $7 million in
scholarships to 1,400 graduating seniors. CFEF is a 501(c)3 non-profit
organization, all contributions are tax deductible, as allowed by the law.
SPONSORSHIPS AVAILABLE
For more information, please contact marie@thecfef.org or visit our

ACTS OF WISDOM GOLF TOURNAMENT
Friday, May 12, 2017, 1:30 PM Houston National Golf Course, 16500
Houston National Blvd, Houston, TX 77095
Join Us for a day of FUN, FOOD and GOLF benefiting ACTS of Wisdom,
a faith-based, non-profit organization that seeks to provide quality
education to children in rural Africa.
Cost: $115 Free range balls, cart, green fees, two drinks on course,
tournament prize and dinner. (If you do not have a foursome, we will pair
you with others.)
All proceeds benefit Acts of Wisdom and help to expand our presence
in rural Africa to help give more children the materials they need for
school. For a registration form or to be a sponsor at any level, please go
to actsofwisdom.com.
ACTS of Wisdom grew out of founder Pastor Brad Otto’s experiences in
Ethiopia and the Book of Acts where an Ethiopian Eunuch asks the Apostle
Philip about Jesus. Philip is stunned that he doesn’t know, to which the
eunuch replies, “No one has ever taught me.” Part of the cycle of poverty
is not having access to quality education or having inadequate supplies
for education. 145 million children in the world do not have access to
education, yet children still dream of becoming doctors, lawyers and
teachers. At ACTS of Wisdom we believe every child, everywhere, should
have access to education and to teachers willing to take time to teach
them. Our hope is that through bettering the education opportunities of
children, we might be able to help end the cycle of poverty and begin to
have peace in our world.

MOTHER’S DAY - A DAY FOR MOM
Mother’s Day has its roots in ancient Greek festivals honoring Rhea, the
Mother of the Gods. The modern American holiday officially began in
1914, when President Woodrow Wilson declared the second Sunday in
May a day to honor all the mothers. Here are some tips on celebrating
Mother’s Day on May 14th!

1. Deliver the classic Mother’s Day treat: breakfast in bed on an oldfashioned
wicker tray table. Cook her favorite morning fare, mix her an
eye-opening mimosa and tuck her favorite flowers into a small crystal
vase. If the tray has slots on the sides, fill them with small presents (or big
presents in small packages).
2. Take your mother on a trip with Mother’s Day sandwiched in the
middle. Make it as simple as a long weekend at the beach or as elaborate
as a trip across the States.
3. Surprise your mother with a visit if she lives far away.
4. Deliver her present by way of a treasure hunt. Lead her on as long a
trail as you think she’ll find amusing, with her present waiting at the end.
5. Honor your mother’s memory if she’s no longer living. Send a donation
to her favorite charity or spend the day working for her favorite cause. Do
things she taught you to love.
6. Thank the women who produced your favorite people - send cards,
flowers or notes to the mothers of your friends, even if you’ve never met
them.
7. Throw a Mother’s Day party for your mother, your friends and their
mothers. Consider a festive spring brunch.
8. Best tip: tell mom you love her.

are we to respond? In this small group Bible study, best selling author
David Platt calls the church to a contrite, compassionate and courageous
