GARBAGE SERVICE 

Remember, heavy trash days for June 2017 are June 

6 th and June 20 th . Also, remember to keep your garbage 

cans at least three feet away from other garbage cans, 

cars, poles or anything that might block the truck from 

gaining access to the can on pickup day. Also remember 

that items piled up by the garbage can may not be 

picked up, except on heavy trash days. Thank you for 

your cooperation. Please contact WAC (our trash company) to confirm 

heavy pick up days. WAC- 281-368-8397. Please, remember Sheffield HOA 

does not manage your trash service. This service is through Langham 

Creek MUD (water bill) 281-579-4500. If you have any questions regarding 

the new service, please refer back to the insert that was included in your 

water bill or contact WCA at 281-368-8397 or the MUD. 

Please be advised that CyFair ISD has removed all of the recycling 

containers at all of their school locations due to improper use. Your 

recycling can that WCA picks up every Friday is the only way you can 

recycle at the present. We will notify residents of any other recycling 

options as we learn of them. 

DEED RESTRICTION VIOLATIONS 

Do you know what the top three reasons management companies send 

out deed restriction letters? The first is not keeping your yard mowed and 

weeded. Mow your yard on a regular basis, keeping it a little higher in 

the summer months, which helps in water retention and crowding out 

weeds. The second is leaving your trashcans out in front of the house or 

garage. Trashcans should be kept out of sight (in the garage, behind the 

privacy fence or behind shrubs or a purpose built enclosure. Contact Crest 

Management if you wish to build a trashcan enclosure for Architectural 

Control forms. The third reason is mildew on the house siding. This often 

happens on shady areas of the house. Power washing or spraying with a 

cleaning solution for mildew often takes care of the problem. 

DEED RESTRICTION - TRAILERS, RV’S AND BOATS 

It is a violation of our deed restrictions to park a trailer, mobile home, 

RV, boat, 18-wheeler tractor/trailer or camper in your driveway. You 

can park these on your property only if they are completely out of sight 

(in the garage, in the back yard behind the house). If you cannot meet 

these rules, it must be stored offsite (out of the neighborhood). If you 

have questions on this, please call the Assistant Community Property 

Manager, Shannon Nogradi, at 281-579-0761 or via email at shannon. 

nogradi@crest-management.com. Thank you for your cooperation. 

GARAGE SALE SIGNS 

Placing garage sale signs in the flower and shrub beds within the 

neighborhood is not permitted. Such signs found in the flower and shrub 

beds will be removed immediately and placed in the trash. 

COMMUNITY INFORMATION AND MEETING NOTICES 

If you are interested in receiving Board meeting email notifications, 

please go to the Crest website at www.crest-management.com and go to 

communities, then scroll down to Sheffield and there you will find a place 

to sign up with your email address and if you scroll to the bottom, you can 

obtain community information, legal documents or applications as well. 

CONTACTING CREST MANAGEMENT & THE BOARD 

If you have a matter you would like to discuss with Crest, Shannon 

Nogradi is our representative and can be reached at 281-579-0761 or by 

email at shannon.nogradi@crest-management.com. If you wish to meet 

with Shannon, please call Crest and make an appointment to ensure 

they are available to assist you. 

LITTER PICKUP 

Just a reminder, if you see trash in the neighborhood, please be a good 

neighbor and pick it up and dispose of it properly. Otherwise, then trash 


will either end up in someone’s shrubbery or trees or else get washed 

down the storm sewers, contributing to mosquito breeding and backing 

up of the storm drains in times of heavy rains. Thanks to those of you who 

regularly pick up other people’s litter. 

PETS 

Please remember that you are not allowed by law to let your dogs and 

cats run loose in the neighborhood. If caught, you may receive a ticket 

in the amount of up to $500 for such a violation (we have had residents 

receive such a ticket). If you see loose pets you can contact Harris County 

Animal Control. A number of Sheffield residents either walk their dogs 

or let their cats run loose. It is a violation of deed restrictions to let your 

pet leave their poop on another resident’s lawn or the common grounds 

(they belong to all of Sheffield’s residents). If your pet does have to go 

to the bathroom, please be courteous and carry a plastic bag (store 

bags or the newspaper delivery bag are great for this), pick up the pile 

by placing your hand inside the bag, grab the pile through the bag, tie 

the bag up and throw it in the garbage. Leaving your pet waste around 

encourages the possible spread of pet disease, such as Parvo, which 

can be life threatening, or parasites. A number of complaints have been 

made about stray cats roaming the neighborhood. To report stray or 

unconfined animals call 281-999-3191, Monday thru Friday during the 

hours of 9:00 AM until 6:00 PM. 

VANDALISM 

Remember, if you see suspicious activity in or around Sheffield, please 

immediately call the Harris County Sheriff’s Department at 713-221- 

6000. Also, let Shannon at Crest Management know at 281-579-0761. 

ACC APPLICATION 

Please request the ACC application for your home improvement or 

modification. Please include all the necessary forms, photo, paint 

samples, solar screen samples, drawings, brochure, lot survey and 

your signature for us to complete your request in a timely manner. 

If these items are not submitted with your application, your request 

is denied. 

A LOT SURVEY IS AN ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING OF YOUR PROPERTY 

SHOWING YOUR HOME, EASEMENTS AND BUILDING LINES. A COPY CAME

GARDEN TIPS FOR JUNE 

Lawns 

• Apply iron sulfate or chelete to St. Augustine grass lawns. 

• Mow St. Augustine to a 2-inch height now to protect roots 

from the sun. Never cut off more than a third of the leaf. 

• Continue treatment of lawns for chinch bug. As the 

temperature hits 80 degrees, chinch bugs begin to reproduce 

in the hottest and driest part of the lawn, usually next to 

cement. Use diazinon or dursban granules. 

Flowers 

• Overwatered hibiscus, purslane and bougainvillea won’t 

bloom. 

• Keep flowers pinched off of coleus and caladiums to 

encourage more of the beautiful foliage. 

• Plants to set: Acalpha, Ageratum, Alternathera, Aspidistra, 

Artemisia, Balsam, Begonia, Chrysanthemum, Cockscomb, 

Coleus, Croton, Dusty Miller, Feverfew, Gaillardia, Geranium, 

Marigold, Petunia, Pinks, Portulaca, Salvia-red, Shrimp Plant, 

Torenia, Verbena and Vinca. 

Vegetables 

• A strong blast of water in the morning rids plants of most 

bugs for the rest of the day. 

• Vegetables to plant: Cantaloupe, Sweet Corn, Cucumber, 

Eggplant sets, Okra, Black Peas, Pepper Sets, Summer Squash 

and Sweet Potato. 

Shrubs 

• Watch Camellias and Azaleas, they’re setting their blooms 

now for next season. So give them a good mulch and plenty 

of water. Mulch well with oak leaves and/or pine needles to 

keep soil acidic. 

Benefits of Mulching: Mulching (organic or inorganic) is a 

layer of material on the surface of the soil around the plant. 

Mulches conserve water by reducing evaporation, insulates 

the soil and protects it from the drying wind and hot sun. 

Mulches break the force of rain and irrigation water and tend 

to prevent erosion, soil compaction, and crusting. Lastly, a 

2-3 inch layer of mulch will almost eliminate weed problems. 


JUNE IS NATIONAL CAMPING MONTH 

The sun is up, the birds are singing and the mosquitoes are finally hatching from their larval phase. Ok, it isn’t all rainbows and fresh fish, 

but June is Camping Month and it’s a great opportunity to get outside with the family and enjoy the great outdoors. Research shows that 

people who spend time camping are happier, more relaxed and tend to buy more bug repellant. What? We don’t like mosquitoes any more 

than you do, but we do love camping! Who doesn’t love sitting under the stars roasting marshmallows and making S’mores or waking up 

to the smell of wood smoke and bacon? 

History of Camping Month 

While there was a time when ‘camping’ was just called ‘being alive,’ that all changed in the 1800’s when a man named Thomas Hiram Holding 

began to popularize the idea of recreational camping. Camping was a part of his life introduced to him by the rigors of the Oregon Trail 

and once he had settled it turned into a passion he pursued and introduced to others. Once camping in general had become popularized, 

Thomas went on to introduce the idea of Cycle Camping to the American world. This is, quite simply, where you load up on a bike and ride 

until you find a spot to camp, get up the next day and do it all over again. 

What is likely the first commercial campground opened in Douglas, Isle of Man in 1894 and was called Cunningham’s Camp. From this point 

in history all sorts of new types of camping came into existence, from mere weekend family getaways, to RV camping and everything in 

between. Whether rafting down a river in a Canoe and setting up camp in the evening or hiking into the woods far from civilization with a 

backpack full of your gear, Camping Month celebrates them all. 

How to celebrate Camping Month 

Well, this has got to be the easiest answer ever, GO CAMPING. Even if it’s just a pop-up tent and sleeping bag in your backyard under the 

stars, get out there and reconnect with the great outdoors. There’s a place to find your soul and set your mind to peace out in the great 

distant woods and they’re calling all of us to head back out there and find ourselves. So pile into your car, find yourself some secluded spot 

to set up a tent and celebrating Camping Month by going camping!

29TH ANNUAL BF ADAM GOLF CLASSIC 

RAISED $135,000 FOR CFEF 

The CFISD community raised approximately $135,000 for student 

scholarships through the Cy-Fair Educational Foundation (CFEF) 29 th 

annual BF Adam Golf Classic, held May 11 th at BlackHorse Golf Club. 

SPLASH! PROGRAMS/EVENTS 

The Cypress-Fairbanks ISD Splash! program offers swim lessons 

periodically throughout the year. All lessons are based on the American 

Red Cross Learn to Swim program and the program is supervised by WSI 

Certified instructors. 

Whether your child is brand new to the water or they are swimming laps, 

our instructors have the unique ability to build on the skills your child 

already possesses. We have three options for group lessons: Level 1 

(Introduction to Water Skills), Level 2 (Fundamental Aquatic Skills) and 

Level 3 (Stroke Development). 

We also offer private lessons for younger students (under 4 yrs), for 

students whose skills are greater than our Level 3 curriculum and for 

adults over 18 who would like to learn the basics. 

The annual event, named after longtime CFISD school Board member 

and elementary school namesake Bernard Fred (BF) Adam, contributes 

to the CFEF mission of increasing college access for CFISD graduates by 

awarding scholarships. 

The North Course winner was Purcell Construction, Inc., shooting a score 

of 55. Team members were Larry Purcell, Jed Purcell, David Ortego and 

Roy Sprague. The North Course Longest Drive winner was Randy Crowder 

and the Closest to the Hole winner was Mark Miller. The Stik-It Closest to 

the Hole winner was Rich Guderyon. 

The South Course winner, Salas O’Brien, LLC, shot a 54. Team members 

were Zac Koletar, Jody Doebele, Dillon Brady and Chris Koeper. The 

South Course Longest Drive winner was Jimmy Schultz and the Closest 

to the Hole winner was Jody Doebele. The Stik-It Closest to the Hole 

winner was Sean Holder. 

Michael Martin was the putting contest winner. 

Open lanes are for participants to work on stroke, time and conditioning 

individually. A great way to reinforce skills that have been achieved! While 

an instructor and lifeguard are present, this is not a lesson. (instructor 

approval required) 

Children with special needs are also welcome! We will work with both 

the parents and child to find the best fit where he or she will be most 

successful in the program. For pricing, schedule and registration form,

GIRL SCOUT NEWS 

GIRL SCOUTS OF SAN JACINTO COUNCIL 

COPPER CREEK MEADOWS COMMUNITY 

Copper Creek Meadows Community held a Bridging Ceremony in May, 

for troops moving from one Girl Scout level to another. Our stage was 

decorated by the girls to remind us of the outdoors and camp. As each 

troop arrived on stage, a leader recounted all the activities of the past 

year. We heard about service projects, badges and awards earned, 

journeys completed and all the fun that the girls had. As their names 

were called, each girl crossed the bridge to her new level. Many of our 

troops also complete activities to earn the bridging patch. They teach 

younger Scouts about the level they are leaving and learn from older 

Scouts some of the things they will need to know. 

Copper Creek Meadows also thanked our leaders and other volunteers 

with an end-of-year celebration and meeting. We really appreciate all 

of our leaders and other volunteers for all that they do! Congratulations 

to Donna Fontenot and Julie Bruggeman Mayer, who received the 

“Appreciation Award” at the 2017 Adult Recognition Event for Girl Scouts 

of San Jacinto Council. Many thanks for all of your years of hard work! 

Daisy troop 113403 attended “Dr. Girl Scout” and learned about the human 

body and healthy living. They visited Camp Misty Meadows for a “Love, Hug 

and Groom” session where they met some of the camp horses and took a 

tour of the barn. Troop 16468 continued to work on their aMAZING Journey. 

They hosted Cadette, Senior and Ambassador Girl Scouts from Copper 

Creek Meadows and other communities in Region 4 for a movie viewing and 

discussion. The movie shown was “Lemonade Mouth.” The troop provided 

snacks and refreshments and took the lead in the discussion that followed. 

Junior troop 16460 

Junior troop 16460 has been working with Special Paws, a no-kill, 

non-profit animal shelter in northwest Houston. The troop donated 

a wood bench swing, for the dog park, which they had sanded and refinished. 

They cleaned and painted tires to make flower planters for the 

shelters and planted colorful flowers to brighten things up. They also 

held a successful Donation Drive for items on Special Paws’ “wish list” 

and collected pet food and other supplies for the shelter. The troop is 

working to earn the Bronze Award, which is the highest award for Junior 

Girl Scouts. 

As the school year winds down, Girl Scouts look forward to summer and 

Girl Scout Camp! Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council offers day, twilight 

and residential camps. Information can be found on the Council website, 

www.gssjc.org. 

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 age and no previous Scouting experience is required. Don’t 

forget that Girl Scouting is great for older girls as well! Girls whose busy 

schedule does not allow for troop membership may participate as 

individually registered Girl Scouts or Juliettes. San Jacinto Council offers 

special interest groups in robotics, astronomy, archery, backpacking, 

equitation, sailing, riflery and dance and drill (Green Starlettes).

BOY SCOUT NEWS 

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. 

Please contact Brendan Cronin, Copperhead District Executive (713-756- 

3383 or email brendan.cronin@scouting.org) or to go www.copperhead.

“get it”, to provide an atmosphere that is uplifting and encouraging, to 

introduce campers to activities that will provide lifelong hobbies and

social interaction with others who share similar issues in life. Charis is a 

Greek word for GRACE or ACCEPTANCE.

YMCA CAMP 

CAMP FLAMING ARROW 

Hunt, Texas • 830-238-4631 • ymcasatx.org/campflamingarrow 


Our camp goal is to provide a summer camp experience rich in tradition 

centered on our core values of caring, honesty, respect, responsibility 

and faith, and allowing campers to gain independence, a higher selfworth 

and life-long, positive memories. For instance, Pow Wow, our 

chapel time, is led by an assigned cabin (teaching responsibility) and 

a lesson is taught about the value of the day (e.g. Monday is devoted to 

discussing the value of caring.) Our staff wear their value t-shirts daily to 

remind all campers what the emphasis is for that day. Even discipline is 

structured around our values: for instance, a time-out for being uncaring 

and disrespectful to a fellow camper. Activities are taught with the 

premise of respecting the safety rules and always having faith in yourself 

and others. Each evening is concluded with an in-cabin devotional, 

called Embers, which closes the day by reflecting on the daily value, 

daily activities and fellowship with cabin mates and counselors. These 

values transcend the camp session and supplement the values taught 

at home. The YMCA Ragger Program is also offered for those youth and 

staff who wish to be a part of a more spiritual self-growth program. 

CHRISTIAN CAMP / GLUTEN SENSITIVE CAMP 

OFFERED - GILMONT CAMP 

Gilmer, Texas • 903-797-6400 • gilmont.org 


Within the close community built around cabin groups and time spent learning 

and sharing, we ponder and practice what it means to Branch Out! Camp lasts 

only one week―but what campers take home can last a lifetime. Campers are 

reminded that they can take that camp-feeling with them everywhere they go 

because they are connected to one another and to God by Christ. The Bible 

stories in Branching Out encourage campers to use prayer, relationships, 

family, and more to stay connected throughout their lives.

course, all of our activities are designed to stimulate, challenge, and empower our 

campers and impart a lasting understanding of the world around them.

CAMP CHAMPIONS GIRLS SUMMER CAMP 

Marble Falls, Texas • 830-598-2571 • campchampions.com 


A tradition of excellence since 1967, fantastic activities, and best-trained 

counselors are a few of the reasons that Camp Champions is consistently 

ranked among the top camps in the country, but what really sets our camp 

apart is the intentional community we create year after year. We believe every 

child has an inner Champion, and we create a loving community in which every 

camper can flourish. Whether they realize it or not, we push every camper to 

grow in character skills like independence and confidence while they are at 

camp. And because there is an important niche in our community for every 

camper to fill, we are consistently told that our campers are free to discover 

“the best versions of themselves.” We are as committed to children and their 

growth as any institution or program out there, and our community is the 

primary way we support campers in this goal. Of course, we wouldn’t be able 

to create such a community if we didn’t have such a blast every day at camp!

HEAT 

We’re weeks away from sweltering temperatures, 

hurricane warnings and bug invasions. Before summer 

hits at full force, make sure you and your home are 

prepared: 

Give Your Air Conditioner a Checkup 

• Replace your air filter to make sure the whole system 

runs smoothly. 

• Clear debris on or around your vents or exhausts and 

clean off any dirt from the main unit outside. 

• Install programmable thermostats. 

Test for Ventilation Leaks 

• First, look for actual leaks: drafts in your windows and 

doors. 

• Check your attic insulation for leaks and gaps. 

Set Up a Barrier for Bugs 

• Check caulking around windows and doors, fix any 

drafts/gaps with new weather stripping and caulking. 

• Spray outdoor perimeter with a pesticide, along with 

baseboards, sinks, windows and doors. 

Change Your Ceiling Fan Direction 

• Run Ceiling Fans Counter-Clockwise for Summer Savings. 

Prevent Water Damage 

• Make sure your windows and doors are properly sealed 

and caulked, too. 

• Test gutters to look for water coming out of any places it 

shouldn’t. 

• Inspect your roof (remove any debris and leaves while 

you’re up there).
