HOWDY NEIGHBOR!<br />
IMPORTANT NOTE:<br />
Thank you to those who have cleaned your bronze street number plate<br />
on your home exterior. PLEASE make sure your house number is visible<br />
from the street. You might need to lower the shrubs that are blocking the<br />
visibility of your house numbers. Or polish/clean the plate. This is very<br />
important because in the event an emergency vehicle needs to find you<br />
and can’t, it might be critical in time lost.<br />

HOA DUES ARE NOW PAST DUE<br />
If you haven’t paid your <strong>2019</strong> dues yet, please contact Inframark to make<br />
arrangements to do so. They are now accruing additional fees.<br />
OFFICE SUITE FOR LEASE<br />
in <strong>Copper</strong>field area<br />
We have an aging neighborhood with a lot of community space, which<br />
requires repair and sometimes replacement. Many of our common space<br />
areas are in need of replacement. Some of our major projects will be to<br />
replace the swing sets, add picnic tables and benches for enjoyment,<br />
enlarge the pool slide and various other projects.<br />
RESIDENTS:<br />
It has come to our attention that many residents are leaving their<br />
grass clippings and shrub clippings out on the curb for days before the<br />
assigned trash pickup. Our trash days are on Monday and Thursday.<br />
Either change your scheduled yard mowing to coordinate with the trash<br />
days OR remove the grass and tree trimmings to the back of your fence<br />
or in your garage until the evening before trash pick-ups. It is a deed<br />
violation to leave your grass clippings or tree branches out days early.<br />
DON’T SWEEP OR BLOW GRASS CLIPPINGS INTO THE STREET GUTTERS.<br />
It clogs our drainage system.<br />

Exchange Student HOSTING FAQs<br />
What does hosting mean? Hosting means you open your heart and<br />
home to a teenager from another country. You provide the same loving,<br />
caring environment for them as you do a member of your own family.<br />
What kinds of families are acceptable? We accept many types of<br />
families: single parent families, families with children of any age, childless<br />
families and families with grown children.<br />
What is the host family responsible for? The host family is responsible of<br />
providing three meals a day, registering the student in school, a separate<br />
bed and a quiet place to study. The STSF local LC will obtain the signed<br />
school acceptance form prior to the student’s arrive to the country.<br />
What happens if the student is ill or in an accident? Our students have<br />
their own medical insurance. Each student should have an ID card and<br />
claim forms before they arrive. STSF will help with the filing of claims.<br />
What about spending money? The student’s natural parents agree<br />
to send adequate spending money. This money should be enough for<br />
clothing, social activities, trips, school expenses and telephone calls to<br />
their home country. Ideally, students will already have a bank account<br />
when they come over that they can access with an ATM card. Host Families<br />
can also assist their students in setting up savings or teen account.<br />
Are we supposed to show them America? Trips are organized and<br />
available to the students through their Regional Directors or through<br />
an STSF approved travel organization. Keep in mind that this is an<br />
academic program with opportunities for travel for students who are<br />
meeting academic standards. RDs also sponsor trips for students. More<br />
information about these trips will be given throughout the year.<br />
What is expected of the exchange student? Our students are here on<br />
an academic program. This means, they must attend all of their classes,<br />
participate in class and maintain at least a C or above in each class. The<br />
student has an orientation that explains the rules they agree to abide by. These<br />
include obeying all local, state and federal laws. They may be immediately<br />
dismissed from the program and sent home for violation of these laws. They<br />
are expected to follow host family rules concerning family responsibilities<br />
such as chores. They must also obey curfews established by the host family.<br />
What is the length of stay? Most of our students arrive in August for a<br />
10 month academic stay. They must return to their home country 7 to 10<br />
days after the last day of school. These are a few students who only come<br />
for a semester. Some arrive in January and stay until December. How<br />
do you match students to Host Families? We try to find students whose<br />
hobbies and interest match the family members. We look for common<br />
interest in the arts, sports and religious involvement. The host Family<br />
may request a student from a country they have special interest in. We<br />
try and match as much as possible to ensure a successful experience.<br />
Are Host Families paid to host? No, but host families receive a $50<br />
tax deduction (Charitable Contribution) per month for each month the<br />
students live with you.<br />
What are the rewards of hosting? Your family gains a new family<br />
member. The relationship that evolves throughout your year as a host<br />
parent will last a lifetime. The focus of this program is to have host<br />
families and students learn from each other.<br />
If you are interested in hosting, please contact Vicki Odom at 832-455-<br />

Langham Creek students win<br />
3rd annual Book Battles competition<br />
Langham Creek High School students won the third annual Book Battles<br />
against their fellow CFISD high school participants, held April 1 st at Cy-<br />
Fair High School. Each of the district’s high schools had the opportunity<br />
to put together a team of 4-8 students to attend and compete in the<br />
CFISD battle. The students had seven months to read and study 12 books<br />
chosen by the high school librarians, who learned of the idea for the<br />
competition from the Texas Librarian’s Association conference four years<br />
ago and brought it to CFISD.<br />
The competition, which featured 10 teams, was set up in a double<br />
elimination format, allowing each participating team an opportunity to<br />
continue on despite losing a round. The finals came down to Langham<br />
Creek and Cy-Fair, which made it to the end despite competing with only<br />
three students. The winner-take-all final ended tied before Langham<br />
Creek prevailed in the fourth round of extra questions.<br />
Winning team members were freshman William Hudson, sophomores<br />
Madelynn Ponder and Sarah Warring, juniors Sarah Dao, Ben Hudson,<br />
Matthew Hudson and Christopher Land and senior Nadine Ineza. Juniors<br />
Kelsey Roberson, Aysha Alexander and Rosaleen Sweiti made up Cy-<br />
Fair’s runner-up team. Jersey <strong>Village</strong> High School finished third.<br />
Helping facilitate the competition and serving as judges and timers were<br />
current and former CFISD librarians and staff members, as well as Harris<br />
County Lone Star College-CyFair librarians Tracy Williams and Melanie<br />
Wachsmann.<br />

31ST ANNUAL B. F. ADAM GOLF CLASSIC<br />
<strong>May</strong> 9, <strong>2019</strong>, the Cy-Fair Educational Foundation (CFEF) will celebrate its<br />
31 st annual B. F. Adam Golf Classic at BlackHorse Golf Club. Allegiance<br />
Bank joins the Foundation as our new tournament underwriter. IBI<br />
Group, Linebarger Attorneys at Law and Zenith Real Estate Group are<br />
supporting CFEF again this year as Platinum Sponsors. Gold Sponsors<br />
include Cromdane Steel, Division One Construction, PBK, Salas O’Brien<br />
and Satterfield & Pontikes Construction. The Backyard Grill joins<br />
Carl’s BBQ as our dinner sponsors. Caldwell Companies has been the<br />
tournament lunch sponsor since 2011.<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. Our first tournament raised $3,500<br />
and over the past 30 years the B. F. Adam Golf Classic has successfully<br />
raised almost $3.5M.<br />
CFEF was established in 1970 as a non-profit to raise money to fund<br />
scholarships for high school graduates. Through the generosity of the<br />
Cy-Fair community and commitment from the Board of Trustees, the<br />
Foundation has grown tremendously with scholarship awards totaling<br />
more than $8.5M to graduating seniors from Cypress-Fairbanks ISD. CFEF<br />
is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, all contributions are tax deductible,<br />
as allowed by the law.<br />
SPONSORSHIPS AVAILABLE<br />

ST. AIDAN’S SETS SUMMER VBS<br />
Believe it or not, it’s time to start thinking about Vacation Bible School<br />
again and the folks at St. Aidan’s have another great program planned.<br />
Scheduled for the week of July 8 th -12 th , St. Aidan’s usually hosts about 80<br />
children. This year’s theme is ROAR: Life is wild. God is Good. We usually<br />
have Bahama Bucks on the last day. That is always a big treat for our<br />
students. And, last year, we hosted Wild Things Zoofari. They brought<br />
a wallaby, a toucan, a lemur and a hedgehog. Everyone really enjoyed<br />
that.” Cost of VBS is $30. Scholarships are available for families in-need.<br />
New for this year, we are adding Triumph Sports so our students will<br />
have a full-day option. From 12-4 PM, Triumph will run a Bible-based<br />
sports camp. Participants will play dodgeball, kickball, capture the flag,<br />
basketball, soccer and more. Early registration for this afternoon session<br />
is $105 before June 1 st . After June 1 st , cost goes up to $115. Registration<br />
is already open at aidanschurch.org. For additional information, please<br />

Registration is now underway for our Summer Camps. We offer a variety<br />
of 5 different mini-day camps for children ages 3 years (must be potty<br />
trained) through entering 1st grade. These fun camps keep your younger<br />
kids very busy while reinforcing concepts that they have learned in school!<br />
All camps are filled with age appropriate learning disguised as fun!<br />
This year our camps are themed after the youth’s favorite Disney movies!<br />
All camps are Tuesday through Thursday, 9 AM-2 PM. We will also offer a<br />
50 minute dance class on Tuesday’s from 2-2:50 PM weekly for those who<br />
may want a little extra time! On week 1, we learn It’s A Small World After<br />
All! On week 2, we are getting ready for some Monster <strong>May</strong>hem! Week 3<br />
is for all our little STEM-tastic learners as we head into Wreck It/Race It<br />
week. Week 4 we will beat the heat with some island style fun with water.<br />
Our 5 th camp is going to be, shall we say, INCREDIBLE…as we end the<br />
summer with a super hero theme.<br />
Each camp is $100 and includes a daily snack. Campers will bring a<br />
peanut-free lunch daily. All camps include science, math, art, movement,<br />
music and creative play with both indoor and outdoor activities. A<br />
minimum payment of $25 is required at the time of registration to hold<br />
your child’s spot with the balance being paid no later than the first day of<br />
camp. We will not hold camps on the week of July 4 th or the week of July<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 />
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 - <strong>Copper</strong>head 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 />
Other Community groups include: Autumn Creek Baptist Church,<br />
Beck and Masten Automotive, Cornerstone United Methodist Church,<br />
<strong>Copper</strong>field Church, Crossbridge Church, Cy-Fair Kiwanis Club, Deerfield<br />
<strong>Village</strong> HOA, LDS Bear Creek and <strong>Copper</strong>field Wards, Middlegate <strong>Village</strong><br />

Nobody cares for eyes more than Pearle ®<br />
Dr. A. Bains<br />
Therapeutic Optometrist<br />
Most vision plans accepted<br />
Warm weather means our gardens and landscapes are growing fast.<br />
Here are some tasks to keep your landscape beautiful and productive:<br />
Flowers: Time to plant summer blooming perennials and annuals<br />
including plumbago, zinnias, angelonia, purslane, lobularia,<br />
sunflowers, yellow bells, pride of Barbados, duranta and bat-faced<br />
cuphea.<br />
Vegetables: <strong>May</strong> is a great time to plant, from seed or nursery plants,<br />
okra, sweet potatoes, cucumbers, winter squash, pumpkins, basil,<br />
peppers, lima beans, eggplant, garlic chives and Malabar greens. If<br />
you don’t want to dedicate an area of your yard, consider planting<br />
here and there in your flowerbeds. Edible landscaping is a popular<br />
new trend!<br />
Lawns: Water 1/2 to 1” of irrigation per week. A rain gauge or straight<br />
sided container (such as a tuna fish can) will help you know how long<br />
to run your irrigation system to apply 1/2”.<br />
Weeding: Hand pull or hoe weeds while they are still young or better<br />
yet, maintain a 3” layer of mulch in all vegetable and flowerbeds to<br />
deter weeds from getting a start.<br />
Pruning: Remove spent blooms on spring and summer annuals to<br />
promote new blooms.<br />
Fertilizing: Fertilize flowerbeds and vegetable gardens w/slow release<br />
organic fertilizer.<br />
Water: Deep soakings between rain events is better than frequent<br />
light sprinkling.<br />
Birds: Spring migration continues until mid-<strong>May</strong>. Clean bird feeders!<br />
Replace water in bird baths to avoid creating mosquito breeding<br />
spots.<br />
