Importance of Yearly Assessments 

OUR COMMUNITY’S FOUNDATION 

It’s that time of year our annual assessments will be due. These fees are 

very important part of the HOA’s function. In order for the association 

to perform the many tasks and duties for which it is responsible, the 

association must have operating funds. These funds are used to pay for 

landscape maintenance, sprinkler repairs, utilities, administration and 

help to keep an adequate reserve fund for major repairs or replacement 

of common property elements. The requirement upon an owner 

for paying assessments is mandatory and therefore, legally binding 

according to the association’s governing documents. The amount of the 

annual assessment is established each year by the association’s Board 

of Directors based upon the Board’s adoption of the annual budget. If 

a situation arises that you are unable to pay this assessment, please 

contact the Management Team as soon as possible for details about

CHINCH BUGS or BROWN PATCH? 

As the weather starts to cool, brown patch inevitably starts to show its ugly 

face in the form of yellow circles on our lawns. Many homeowners have a 

hard time telling whether they have brown patch or if there is some sort 

of insect feasting on their lawn areas. 

To clarify: Brownpatch is a fungus and usually appears in the same areas 

repeatedly, thriving when temperatures drop overnight below 70 degrees for 

several nights, even if previous outbreaks were thought to have been resolved. 

A yellow/grey circle up to 20” in diameter will appear and then slowly close in 

on the inner turf, changing the color of the grass as it moves inward. 

Scott’s Lawn Fungus Control is very effective in controlling an outbreak 

of Brownpatch. Products containing Chlorothanolwork well - try Daconil 

Docket DF, it is a granular product and very effective. Ortho Daconil is a 

faster-acting liquid productmany homeowners use. Additionally, as the 

weather begins to cool, mow your turf shorter to prevent moisture build-up, 

adjust your irrigation cycle to fewer days or shorter cycle times and avoid 

watering at night. Fungus loves moisture. 

Chinch Bugs can be very devastating to St. Augustine or Fescue lawns. Their 

damage can appear similar to brown patch at first but grows out beyond 

circles or rings. Chinch bugs are the larvae of Blissus leucopterus, a small 

winged beetle. To check for the presence of chinch bugs: 

Take a coffee can or similar container and remove the top and bottom of 

the can, creating a hollow cylinder. Then embed the can in an affected 

area and fill with water. If chinch bugs are present they will rise to the top 

of the water within the can. 

Prevent damage from occurring! The most effective pesticide to apply is 

a liquid spray containing permethrin, cypermethrin or deltamethrin. This 

must be applied 3 separate times within a 21 day period - the egg cycle the 

chinch bugs leave behind must be killed, otherwise they will return. A liquid 

product will permeate all areas better and more effectively than a granular 

product, ensuring the infestation is defeated. 

If a granular treatment is utilized as well as a liquid application, 

“Triazicide” works very well if applied according to labeled directions.

KISD COLLABORATES WITH FBI IN 

#THINKBEFOREYOUPOST CAMPAIGN 

Hoax threats are not a joke. This type of action can lead to serious legal 

consequences, even if there was never an intent to carry out the threat. 

Katy Independent School District has joined forces with the Federal 

Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Houston Division and various other law 

enforcement agencies to launch a public awareness campaign entitled 

#ThinkBeforeYouPost. 

Members of the Houston Police Department, the Harris County Sheriff’s 

Office, police chiefs from Houston, Katy, Fort Bend and Aldine Independent 

School Districts, as well as Crime Stoppers of Houston and Clear Channel 

Outdoor seek to educate the public about the consequences of making 

hoax threats of violence to schools and other public places. Every threat 

is taken seriously and this type of behavior is considered a crime which 

can lead to a sentence of up to five years in prison, if escalated to a federal 

crime. If a federal charge is not warranted, state charges can be considered. 

According to authorities, posting false threats through social media platforms 

or any electronic means, not only requires countless hours of investigation 

by law enforcement agencies but it also drains school resources and ends up 

costing taxpayers’ money. In some cases, schools shut down resulting in the 

loss of instructional time for students and teachers. 

Misguided attempts at humor are no laughing matter and can end up ruining 

a student’s future aspirations and career opportunities. Katy ISD seeks 

the public’s assistance to curb hoax threats among our student population. 

Below you will find additional resources to share with family and friends. 

Remember hoax threats are not a joke, so think before you post!

located in Santa Fe, Texas. After moving the home to Sam Houston 

Park in April, Havel and Ruck stripped the structure’s interior and 

exterior using drill saws and other tools. They cut circular holes 

into the walls and filled them with PVC pipe to create a “Swiss 

cheese” or “lace” appearance and collaged the interior walls with 

vintage images sourced from family, friends and local resale shops 

representing the city’s people, places and past.

7 ESSENTIAL BLACK FRIDAY 

SHOPPING TIPS 

Believe it or not, Black Friday is almost here. 

But before you make a single purchase, there 

are a few things we recommend you do. Remember, 

Black Friday was created by retailers 

to benefit retailers. But with our pointers 

below, you’ll be able to turn the tables and 

ensure you make the wisest buying decisions 

throughout the holiday season. 

Make a list, check it twice: One of the worst 

things you can do during the holidays is purchase 

items blindly without a shopping list. 

This is true whether you shop online or in-store. 

Shopping without a specific list causes you to 

spend more and purchase items that you may 

not necessarily need. By creating a shopping 

list with specific items, you avoid falling into 

the trap of buying unnecessary stuff. 

Embrace your inner Scrooge: So you’ve 

found what looks like the perfect deal and 

you’re ready to pull the trigger. Stop. Before 

you buy anything, there are two things you 

should always do. First, use a price-comparison 

engine such as Google Shopping, 

ShopSavvy or PriceGrabber to make sure 

you’re getting the best price on the item you 

want to buy. It pays to shop around; you’ll 

be surprised by how easy it is to find lower 

prices. After you’ve done your homework 

and ensured you’re not being overcharged, 

find out if there are any perks to purchasing 

from one store versus the other. Maybe you’re 

an Amazon Prime member and Amazon’s offering 

free next-day shipping. Or maybe you 

have a Best Buy rewards card that promises 

double points. Any opportunity to stack on 

additional savings - even if small - should 

not be missed. 

Start your shopping early: Black Friday is 

no longer a one-day event. As a matter of fact, 

the best sales aren’t even released on Black 

Friday, they’re actually unveiled throughout 

Thanksgiving week. So the earlier you start 

your shopping, the better your chances of 

finding the items you want on sale and in 

stock. In the past, we noticed some of the 

best deals were released on the morning 

of Thanksgiving Day. That’s not to say you 

should avoid Black Friday, but be aware that 

“Black Friday” is now a season that includes 

most of November and December. 

Be wary of doorbuster sales: Black Friday 

wouldn’t be the same without a head-turning 

doorbuster sale. However, these time-sensitive 

sales were designed to lure shoppers 

into stores in hopes of getting consumers to 

spend on other nonessentials. Oftentimes, a 

store will have a very limited number of doorbuster 

items in stock. Moreover, they’ll release 

them at odd hours in the morning. So unless 

you’re first in line, your chances of scoring a 

doorbuster deal are slim to none. 

Get social: Want to get a leg up on the latest 

Black Friday offerings? One of the best ways 

to see what’s coming down the pipes is by 

following your favorite retailers on social 

media. Facebook and Twitter tend to be the 

most active platforms for retailers, but don’t 

be surprised if stores start using Instagram to 

reveal secret coupon codes or early preview 

deals as well. 

Use one card: Data breaches are bound to 

happen - especially during the holidays - and 

the best way to safeguard yourself against any 

potential identity theft is to limit the number 

of credit cards you use during the holiday 

season. While you could make your purchases 

with cash only, there are many benefits to 

using a credit card, whether you’re earning 

cash-back rewards or using your card for the 

added protections it offers. 

Know your return policies: Retailers tend 

to tweak their return policies during the holidays. 

While some may extend them, others 

might restrict them or increase their restocking 

fees. Doorbuster and “final sale” products 

tend to have the strictest policies, so be sure 

you’re comfortable with a store’s policy before 

you buy anything. Also, be sure to ask for and 

save your receipts. You never know when you 

may need them.

9 TIPS TO HELP 

YOU SHOP SAFELY 

ON CYBER MONDAY 

Type the phrase “Cyber 

Monday” into Google and 

you’ll find links not only 

to special Cyber Monday 

coupons and savings, 

but also to Cyber Monday-only 

sales at some 

of the largest online retailers. 

It’s truly become 

the Internet’s version of Black Friday. Cyber Monday began “officially” 

in 2005 (it was made up by a marketer), but the phenomenon goes back 

to the beginning of online shopping, before computers were a fixture in 

homes. People would return to work on the Monday after Thanksgiving 

and shop from their office computers. This year, more than 60 percent 

of American consumers are expected to shop online on Cyber Monday, 

although many of us will be shopping from the comfort of our living-room 

sofas. Cyber Monday has gone mobile as well, with about half of online 

shoppers expected to make holiday purchases from their smartphones or 

tablets. Of course, as the popularity of Cyber Monday grows and the deals 

get bigger and better, the risks of shopping online also increase. Cybercriminals 

love Cyber Monday too and work hard to get rich off the huge 

number of people engaging in online commerce around the holidays. To 

help shoppers stay safe and secure on Cyber Monday, here are some tips. 

Shop from a secure computer: A computer or Android phone that isn’t 

protected by antivirus software is more likely to be compromised by malware. 

Otherwise, all data entered into or transmitted from that phone or 

computer is at risk, including all forms of personally identifiable information, 

credit-card numbers and bank accounts. Be sure to keep the operating 

system and all internet-facing apps updated to the latest software versions. 

Shop using a secure connection: Data can be at risk during transit if 

an attacker controls the network or uses packet-sniffing software. Web 

protocols such as HTTPS encrypt communications, but in some advanced 

attacks even those could fall to a “man-in-the-middle” attack. Nonetheless, 

always look for the HTTPS lock symbol in your browser address window 

when performing an online purchase. 

Search for deals on retailer sites, not on search engines: Scammers 

“poison” search results with malicious or deceptive links. Want that latest 

game console? Run a search on the Best Buy, Amazon or GameStop sites 

rather than on Google. 

Use trusted vendors: Any website can be attacked by hackers, but limiting your 

shopping to established and trusted vendors limits your exposure. Bookmark the 

most trusted online retail sites to make sure you don’t get redirected to fakes. 

Don’t fall for ‘too-good-to-be-true’ deals: Cyber Monday features a lot 

of incredible, legitimate deals offered by trusted mainstream retailers. 

But cybercriminals will prey on shoppers’ desire for the lowest prices 

and will try to slip in a lot of fake deals. Watch out especially for emails, 

text messages, pop-up browser windows and Facebook and Twitter posts 

promising fantastic savings. Clicking on links in the messages or posts could 

lead to scams, phishing sites or sites distributing malware. And don’t open 

attachments in emails promising fantastic deals. 

Plan ahead and don’t be rushed: Cyberattacks take but a split second 

to occur. Sometimes all that’s required is clicking on a link in an email. 

Look for clues to malicious links, such as an extra “.cc” at the end of what 

would otherwise be a trusted domain name. Take the time to make sure 

you’re on the correct website. 

Review credit-card and bank statements regularly during the shopping 

season: Malware can infect credit-card readers in stores and unscrupulous 

cashiers often steal card numbers as well. If you find a transaction that 

doesn’t match your purchases, your account may have been compromised. 

If so, contact your bank or card issuer. 

Don’t use debit cards online: You’ve got far less protection against fraud 

on a debit card than you do with a credit card. Stick to credit cards when 

shopping online. If you absolutely must use a debit card, use the prepaid 

kind with a set spending limit. 

Use unique passwords and logon information for every site you visit: 

Yes, it’s a pain to remember all those passwords. But if one of them is 

stolen, a cybercrook will try using it on other websites. Passwords should 

be as long as possible and contain a mix of upper-and lower-case characters, 

numbers, punctuation and symbols - and they shouldn’t be reused, 

especially for any website that handles your money. If you have trouble 

handling them all, use a password manager. 

If you’re shopping from a tablet or smartphone on Cyber Monday, 

use a trusted vendor’s app, not a web browser: Vendors have more 

control over their own apps than they do over mobile browsers, which 

often don’t display the web addresses of the sites to which you’re giving 

your credit-card information. 

Never install software on your mobile device from a website link or 

code: Software from locations other than the device’s official “store,” such 

as Apple’s iTunes App Store or the Google Play Store, has a greater chance 

of being malicious. Even then, check to make sure that the app developer 

is the official retailer - a lot of Amazon-related apps in Google Play have 

no connection to Amazon.

BRIEF HISTORY OF 

THANKSGIVING 

The tradition of the Pilgrims’ first 

Thanksgiving is steeped in myth and 

legend. Few people realize that the 

Pilgrims did not celebrate Thanksgiving 

the next year or any year thereafter, 

though some of their descendants 

later made a “Forefather’s Day” that 

usually occurred on December 21 st 

or 22 nd . Several Presidents, including 

George Washington, made one-time 

Thanksgiving holidays. In 1827, Mrs. 

Sarah Josepha Hale began lobbying 

several Presidents for the creation of 

Thanksgiving as a national holiday, but 

her lobbying was unsuccessful until 

1863 when Abraham Lincoln finally 

made it a national holiday. 

Today, our Thanksgiving is the fourth 

Thursday of November. This was set 

by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 

1939 (approved by Congress in 1941), 

who changed it from Abraham Lincoln’s 

designation as the last Thursday in 

November (which could occasionally end 

up being the fifth Thursday and hence 

too close to Christmas for businesses). 

But the Pilgrims’ first Thanksgiving 

began at some unknown date between 

September 21 st and November 9 th , most 

likely in very early October. The date 

of Thanksgiving was probably set by 

Lincoln to somewhat correlate with the 

anchoring of the Mayflower at Cape Cod, 

which occurred on November 21, 1620 

(by our modern Gregorian calendar-it 

was November 11 th to the Pilgrims who 

used the Julian calendar). 

There are only two contemporary 

accounts of the 1621 Thanksgiving: 

First is Edward Winslow’s account, 

which he wrote in a letter dated 

December 12, 1621. The complete letter 

was first published in 1622. The second 

description was written about twenty 

16 

years after the fact by William Bradford 

in his History Of Plymouth Plantation. 

Bradford’s History was rediscovered in 

1854 after having been taken by British 

looters during the Revolutionary War. 

Its discovery prompted a greater 

American interest in the history of the 

Pilgrims. It is also in this account that 

the Thanksgiving turkey tradition is 

founded. 

The primary sources above only list a 

few items that were on the Thanksgiving 

“menu,” namely five deer, a large 

number of turkeys and waterfowl, 

cod and bass; plus the harvest, which 

consisted of wheat, corn, barley and 

perhaps any peas that survived the 

scorching. To that list, we can probably 

add a few additional things that are 

known to have been native to the 

area and eaten by the Pilgrims: clams, 

mussels, lobster, eel, ground nuts, 

acorns, walnuts, chestnuts, squashes 

and beans. Fruits and berries such as 

strawberries, raspberries, grapes and 

gooseberries were available growing 

wild. Pilgrim house-gardens may 

have included a number of English 

vegetables and herbs, perhaps things 

like onions, leeks, sorrel, yarrow, 

lettuce, carrots, radishes, currants, 

liverwort, watercress and others. It is 

unlikely much in the way of supplies 

brought on the Mayflower survived, 

such as Holland Cheese, olive oil, 

butter, salt pork, sugar, spices, lemons, 

beer, aqua-vitae or bacon. It appears 

the Pilgrims may have had some 

chickens with them, so likely had 

access to a limited number of eggs. 

No mention of swine is found in any 

account of the first year. They did not 

yet have any goats or cattle: the first of 

those arrived on the ship Anne in 1623.

STRESS-LESS HOLIDAY ENTERTAINING: 

SET UP A THANKSGIVING BUFFET 

For this year’s Thanksgiving feast, set up an inviting buffet that’s piled 

high with mouthwatering dishes, seasonal decorative elements and 

touches of vintage elegance for a holiday celebration that your loved 

ones won’t soon forget. 

Keep It Simple! For a meal that already requires days of prep, serving 

food buffet-style is a surefire way to lighten the load on the hostess. 

And on a holiday that’s as food-centric as Thanksgiving, there’s no 

better way to give guests the freedom to come back for a second 

(and third!) helping of their favorite dishes. This is a great time to get 

creative and think about repurposing furniture from other parts of 

the house - an old dresser, desk or even a wood door propped up on 

sawhorses would make a perfect buffet.

8 TIPS FOR A SIMPLY CHIC THANKSGIVING 

Thanksgiving is all about focusing on what really matters: family, 

friends and the ultimate comfort food. Take a fuss-free approach with 

our tips for setting a seasonal table that incorporates rustic elements 

with a touch of sophistication. 

Stir It Up 

The party starts as soon as guests arrive. Greet friends and family with a 

tray of piping-hot cider, garnished with fresh cinnamon stir sticks. 

Set the Scene 

Create a centerpiece overflowing with flowers in shades of ivory, 

pumpkin and sage placed atop a salvaged wooden board. 

Celebrate the Season 

To complement this table’s muted color palette, fill the area around the 

centerpiece with pale gourds and squash. Incorporate beeswax taper 

candles and flickering gold votives to warm the mood. 

Count Your Blessings 

This Thanksgiving let everyone join in the fun of decorating the table 

while remembering to count their blessings. Craft our chain of thanks 

in advance then ask guests to write down what they’re thankful for on 

the paper strips. Run the chain down the length of the table and take 

turns reading the sentiments aloud during the meal. For an extra dose 

of fun, leave the strips of paper anonymous and let everyone guess the 

author of each one. 

Help Yourselves 

The best way to enjoy company is by keeping your own load light during 

the party. Simplify your hosting duties by setting up a buffet near the 

table and letting guests help themselves to their favorite Thanksgiving 

foods. Use fresh herbs and seasonal fruit to garnish each dish and set 

out menu cards identifying the ingredients in each item. 

The Perfect Bird 

Score points with guests by preparing a perfectly cooked turkey then 

garnishing the bird with fresh apples and bunches of sage. 

Gather ‘Round the Table 

When it comes down to it, the most important part of your Thanksgiving 

dinner is being surrounded by loved ones. Spend the days leading up 

focusing on prep work so you can relax and enjoy yourself on the big day. 

Light It Up 

Scatter votives and taper candles of different heights down the middle 

of the table to make the entire dining room glow. Purchase inexpensive 

raw wood holders from a craft store, then apply stain to turn them a 

rich mahogany. Use unscented candles so fragrances don’t compete 

with the aromas of the food.

Gardening Tips For November 

• Brown patch will continue to plague St. Augustine lawns as nights get 

cooler and humidity and rain continue. Discolored circles will appear in low 

areas almost overnight. Apply a fungicide recommended for brown patch 

according to label directions. Avoid walking through brown-patched turf. It 

spreads easily from the bottom of your shoes. If brown patch appears in the 

same lawn areas every year, add an inch or two of sandy topsoil to eliminate 

those low spots. 

• Fertilize St. Augustine turf with a winterizing formula to promote root 

growth over the winter months. Lower your lawn mover blades now and 

mow on a schedule that cuts no more than one-third of the grass blade 

away. 

• As chrysanthemums and other perennials finish blooming, cut flowering 

stalks to the ground to permit all strength to be used in making root growth. 

• Feed roses lightly, but avoid nitrogen fertilizers. Do not prune now. Keep up 

spraying program and water deeply. 

• Remove dead foliage and plant debris to help eradicate insects and disease 

organisms. Thin out and transfer volunteer seedlings. Beds made now will 

benefit by weathering before being planted. If soil is heavy, dig six inches 

deep, leave rough, cover with gymsum and strawy manure, water and allow 

to mellow. 

• Bananas are more likely to bear fruit if the trunk does not die back in 

winter. Cut banana stalks back to six feet, wrap with newspaper and burlap. 

• Continue mulching for winter. Build up a thick top mulch to protect roots 

from freezing and winter drying. Don’t throw away those pine tree needles; 

they make great acidic mulch for azaleas, gardenias and next Spring’s 

impatiens. 

• Place pansies in beds after weather has cooled. Use a little blood meat 

mixed in soil under each plant. 

• Now is the best time to plant trees and shrubs.
