HEARTHSTONE GARDEN CLUB NEWS JULY <strong>2017</strong><br />

“Celebrating 40 Years as a Garden Club”<br />

The <strong>Hearthstone</strong> Garden Club is entering its 40 th Year as a garden club in<br />

our beautiful <strong>Hearthstone</strong> neighborhood. We appreciate all of those who<br />

have been involved with our club over the last 40 years. Many have made<br />

a big impact on our club, some were the silent type, but all our members<br />

have made a difference. As our new President, I would like to thank our<br />

founders for making such a wonderful group possible. Our club has some<br />

very special members with a tremendous amount of knowledge and<br />

compassion for gardening and such kind and giving spirits. We have a<br />

wealth of gardening resources and our club is very blessed to have such<br />

special ladies. Get to know us!<br />

The <strong>Hearthstone</strong> Garden Clubs installation of the new Board for the <strong>2017</strong>-<br />

2018 year was held on Tuesday evening, May 16 th . It was a lovely evening<br />

for the members with a special dinner and fair well to our outgoing<br />

President, Kris Patterson. Kris has made a big difference this past year, as<br />

she always does. We can never express our gratitude for all she has done<br />

for the garden club and making this past year such a success.<br />

The garden club has seen a great deal of progress with the Memory Garden<br />

in the park this year. Kris Patterson and Irene Crutchley have worked hard<br />

for several years to get this area ready. It has been a major undertaking<br />

with plants, hardscape and irrigation installation. This area will only get<br />

better with time, their dedication and perfection. Thank you to all of those<br />

involved. The garden club is planning a dedication in the near future.<br />

The garden club gave 6 - $1,500 Scholarships this past May to college<br />

students majoring in Horticulture, Landscape, Floriculture, Agriculture,<br />

Forestry, Botany, Ecology/Conservation, Floral Design or Turf Grass<br />

Management. A total contribution of $9,000 was given to help students<br />

in their efforts to obtain their education. Thank you to those who helped<br />

make this possible through your support of our Plant Sale and the Holiday<br />

Auction. This is just one of the charities which benefits from our proceeds.<br />

We continue to be involved with the residents of the Brookwood<br />

Community in Brookshire, Texas. Brookwood is a community, which<br />

provides an educational environment creating meaningful jobs and<br />

purpose for adults with disabilities. Our members volunteer and help in<br />

the greenhouses or where they are needed. Brookwood is an amazing<br />

place and if you are not familiar with it, you owe it to yourself to visit. www.<br />

brookwoodcommunity.org.<br />

One of our other charities which is near and dear to our hearts is the<br />

Christian Assistance Ministries (CAM) of Cypress. Our donations of food in<br />

the summer helps make meals available for many children which would<br />

not have a meal during the day due to being out of school and the lack<br />

of family funds. Our members donation of gift items during the holiday<br />

season help make it possible for children which would not have gifts to<br />

have a Christmas. If you are not familiar with CAM, check them out. www.<br />

cypressassistance.org.<br />

4 <strong>July</strong> <strong>2017</strong> | <strong>Hearthstone</strong> Community Newsletter


Air Conditioning Contractors of America<br />

Our garden club members volunteer and help at Woodwind Lakes Health &<br />

Rehab in Houston. The club sponsors parties, bingo, gives gifts to residents<br />

at Christmas, donated by members, among other activities. This would<br />

not be possible without the garden clubs help. Many of the residents are<br />

alone in the world without family or loved ones. Our presence makes a<br />

difference in the lives of the residents at Woodwind Lakes.<br />

As you can see, the <strong>Hearthstone</strong> Garden Club is all about giving, whether<br />

it be to beautify our neighborhood in some way or helping the elderly,<br />

disabled, less fortunate or students. We are a Non-Profit 501c3 organization<br />

and we only benefit through the pleasure obtained by giving and making a<br />

difference in the lives of others. This my neighborhood friends is what the<br />

<strong>Hearthstone</strong> Garden Club is all about.<br />

The <strong>Hearthstone</strong> Garden Club will not meet in <strong>July</strong>. The new year will<br />

begin with our August Social on August 15 th at 7 PM at the <strong>Hearthstone</strong><br />

Country Club. Watch for our Ad in the August Edition of the <strong>Hearthstone</strong><br />

News, on our Facebook page and Nextdoor <strong>Hearthstone</strong>. If you are<br />

interested in joining us, you are more than welcome. We learn a great<br />

deal from our many speakers. As always, if you have any questions, please<br />

contact myself or one of our members. The members and I hope everyone<br />

has a wonderful summer. Please stay cool and well hydrated and be safe<br />

in everything you do. See you around the neighborhood!<br />

A MESSAGE FROM YOUR HARRIS COUNTY CONSTABLE<br />

The Harris County Constable’s Office, Precinct 5 is now offering a class on<br />

Rape Aggression Defense (RAD). RAD is one of the best women’s self-defense<br />

courses available. It’s a program based on realistic self-defense tactics and<br />

techniques. It is a comprehensive self-defense course for women that<br />

begins with awareness, prevention, risk reduction and avoidance, while<br />

progressing on to the basics of hands-on defensive training. If you’re<br />

interested in more information and signing up, go to this link:<br />

www.constablepct5.com/2016/06/16/rad-classes-available<br />

Make sure if you or your family goes on vacation to put in a “Vacation<br />

Watch” with our department. That way you’ll know your house is being<br />

watched by our patrol deputies. You can fill out a vacation watch form<br />

online here:<br />

www.constablepct5.com/online-forms<br />

Or you can call our dispatch at 281-463-6666.<br />

HEARTHSTONE STREETLIGHTS<br />

The <strong>Hearthstone</strong> HOA coordinates maintenance of all the streetlights<br />

throughout the community. This includes the “cobra head” lights like you<br />

see along many streets and highways, as well as the decorative light poles<br />

along Huffmeister and in some of the neighborhoods.<br />

Cobra head streetlights need to be reported to CenterPoint, using the pole<br />

number, which is the “address” for the light. It is a six digit number facing<br />

the street. You can report streetlights that are not working or staying on<br />

during the day at http://cnp.centerpointenergy.com/outage (Google<br />

streetlight outage) or give us the pole number and we will do it for you.<br />

Outages or problems with decorative streetlights should be reported<br />

to PCMI at 281-870-0585. Please note the exact intersection or closest<br />

address. The association has a contractor doing a monthly nighttime<br />

inspection for lights that are out, but if you see a problem, please report it,<br />

so we can achieve our goal to keep all the lights on all the time.<br />

LOST & FOUND PETS IN HEARTHSTONE<br />

Folks in <strong>Hearthstone</strong> are very helpful in getting lost pets reunited with<br />

their owners, but all dog owners should ensure that there is a tag on each<br />

dog with their name, address and phone number. Local pet stores have<br />

machines that make tags like this while you wait. At least that would help<br />

found dogs get back home quicker and with less trauma.<br />

WEBSITE<br />

Please visit the Association’s website. With a more attractive, easy to use<br />

design, the site contains a lot of useful information, including HOA news,<br />

quick reference numbers, free classifieds and a library of association forms<br />

and documents. If you think of anything you would like added, please let<br />

us know. The only thing that has not changed is the address. It is still at<br />

www.hearthstonehoa.org.<br />

HEARTHSTONE HOA EMAIL ALERTS<br />

GIRL SCOUTS OF SAN JACINTO COUNCIL<br />

COPPER CREEK MEADOWS COMMUNITY<br />

Copper Creek Meadows Community finished the school year with a<br />

Bridging Ceremony for troops moving from one Girl Scout level to another.<br />

Troop leaders told the gathering of family and friends about the girls’<br />

activities during the past year. We heard about services projects, special<br />

trips and badges and awards earned. Then, each girl crossed the bridge to<br />

be recognized by the audience and greeted with a token of her new level.<br />

Some troops had flowers; others donned their new vests or sashes. Each<br />

of the bridging troops had created decorations for the ceremony.<br />

Copper Creek Meadows Community activities will begin again in the fall,<br />

including recruitment events and activities for new Girl Scouts and their<br />

parents or guardians. More information about Girl Scouts is available on<br />

the website for Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council, www.gssjc. The Council<br />

phone number is 713-292-0300. For information on the Copper Creek<br />

Meadows Community, please contact coppercreekmeadowsgirlscouts@<br />

gmail.com.<br />

Girl Scouting is open to all girls ages 5 (must be in kindergarten) through<br />

18 who are willing to accept the Girl Scout Promise and Law. Copper<br />

Creek Meadows Community serves girls in the residence areas for the<br />

elementary schools listed below, as well as the corresponding middle<br />

and high schools. Home schooled and private school students are<br />

always welcome. Don’t forget that Girl Scouting is for older girls, too!<br />

Our elementary schools are: Birkes, Fiest, Hairgrove, Horne, Kirk, Lee,<br />

Lieder, Lowery, Metcalf, Owens, Tipps, Wilson, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton,<br />

Texas Christian School and Christian Life Center. Girl Scouts builds girls<br />

of courage, confidence and character, who make the world a better<br />

place. That is the mission statement of Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council.<br />

BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA - COPPERHEAD DISTRICT<br />

For 100 years, Scouting programs have instilled in youth the values found<br />

in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Today, these values are just as relevant<br />

in helping youth grow to their full potential as they were in 1910. Scouting<br />

helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership<br />

skills, outdoor skills and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives.<br />

Junior troop 113035 reports that they earned their horse badge at Cypress<br />

Trails.<br />

Troop 16503 used their hard earned cookie money to go to a new campsite<br />

and explore. They hiked trails and played in the Guadalupe River. They<br />

also caught up with the San Antonio Astronomy Group and had a chance<br />

to view the stars through their telescope!<br />

Many of our Girl Scouts will be attending San Jacinto Council’s day, twilight<br />

and resident camps. At camp, Girl Scouts swim and sail, canoe, practice<br />

archer and learn to ride horseback. Camp sessions include all kinds of arts<br />

and crafts, camp traditions, songs and campfires and making new friends!<br />

<strong>Hearthstone</strong> Community Newsletter | <strong>July</strong> <strong>2017</strong><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<br />

help our youth Be Prepared. Your area is serviced by the BSA Sam Houston<br />

National Days in <strong>July</strong><br />

Did you know that every month has some sort of National Day, week or<br />

even the whole month is a National month? Some could be used to plan a<br />

fun day with the family or create a project for the kids on a rainy afternoon<br />

or maybe just start an interesting discussion! Here is a partial list (there<br />

are many more) of what we found for the month of <strong>July</strong>:<br />

GARDEN TIPS FOR JULY<br />

• Plant fall flowering annuals where your spring annuals<br />

have bloomed out. Set our seeds like zinnia, marigold,<br />

cosmos, petunia and portulaca so you’ll have color until<br />

frost. Don’t let seedlings dry out.<br />

• In summer, prune roses to keep them in shape. Continue<br />

black spot and insect treatments. Water 2” once per week.<br />

• Remove spent crepe myrtle flowers to prolong bloom<br />

production.<br />

• Weeds rob plants of valuable water, nutrients--remove<br />

them.<br />

• Great sun/heat-lovers include coral honeysuckle,<br />

coreopsis, lantana, oleanders and hamelia.<br />

• Fertilize flowers lightly, if at all; too hot for heavy feedings.<br />

• Water your lawn longer but less frequent. Deep water<br />

of about 2 - 3” per week forces plant roots to grow down,<br />

instead of sideways into sunbaked upper soil levels. Use a<br />

bowl in your yard to measure during waterings.<br />
