Reminder From The Sheffield Board

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. We thank you for 

your cooperation in this matter. ~ Sincerely, Your Sheffield Board

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. 

OFFICE SUITE FOR LEASE 

in Copperfield area 

Includes 5-6 individual office spaces, 

kitchen, supply room, reception area, storage closet, bathrooms. 

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. 

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.

Exchange Student HOSTING FAQs 

What does hosting mean? Hosting means you open your heart and 

home to a teenager from another country. You provide the same loving, 

caring environment for them as you do a member of your own family. 

What kinds of families are acceptable? We accept many types of 

families: single parent families, families with children of any age, childless 

families and families with grown children. 

What is the host family responsible for? The host family is responsible of 

providing three meals a day, registering the student in school, a separate 

bed and a quiet place to study. The STSF local LC will obtain the signed 

school acceptance form prior to the student’s arrive to the country. 

What happens if the student is ill or in an accident? Our students have 

their own medical insurance. Each student should have an ID card and 

claim forms before they arrive. STSF will help with the filing of claims. 

What about spending money? The student’s natural parents agree 

to send adequate spending money. This money should be enough for 

clothing, social activities, trips, school expenses and telephone calls to 

their home country. Ideally, students will already have a bank account 

when they come over that they can access with an ATM card. Host Families 

can also assist their students in setting up savings or teen account. 

Are we supposed to show them America? Trips are organized and 

available to the students through their Regional Directors or through 

an STSF approved travel organization. Keep in mind that this is an 

academic program with opportunities for travel for students who are 

meeting academic standards. RDs also sponsor trips for students. More 

information about these trips will be given throughout the year. 

What is expected of the exchange student? Our students are here on 

an academic program. This means, they must attend all of their classes, 

participate in class and maintain at least a C or above in each class. The 

student has an orientation that explains the rules they agree to abide by. These 

include obeying all local, state and federal laws. They may be immediately 

dismissed from the program and sent home for violation of these laws. They 

are expected to follow host family rules concerning family responsibilities 

such as chores. They must also obey curfews established by the host family. 

What is the length of stay? Most of our students arrive in August for a 

10 month academic stay. They must return to their home country 7 to 10 

days after the last day of school. These are a few students who only come 

for a semester. Some arrive in January and stay until December. How 

do you match students to Host Families? We try to find students whose 

hobbies and interest match the family members. We look for common 

interest in the arts, sports and religious involvement. The host Family 

may request a student from a country they have special interest in. We 

try and match as much as possible to ensure a successful experience. 

Are Host Families paid to host? No, but host families receive a $50 

tax deduction (Charitable Contribution) per month for each month the 

students live with you. 

What are the rewards of hosting? Your family gains a new family 

member. The relationship that evolves throughout your year as a host 

parent will last a lifetime. The focus of this program is to have host 

families and students learn from each other. 

If you are interested in hosting, please contact Vicki Odom at 832-455- 

7881 or vicki.stsfoundation@yahoo.com.

Langham Creek students win 

third annual Book Battles competition 

Langham Creek High School students won the third annual Book Battles 

against their fellow CFISD high school participants, held April 1 st at Cy- 

Fair High School. Each of the district’s high schools had the opportunity 

to put together a team of 4-8 students to attend and compete in the 

CFISD battle. The students had seven months to read and study 12 books 

chosen by the high school librarians, who learned of the idea for the 

competition from the Texas Librarian’s Association conference four years 

ago and brought it to CFISD. 

The competition, which featured 10 teams, was set up in a double 

elimination format, allowing each participating team an opportunity to 

continue on despite losing a round. The finals came down to Langham 

Creek and Cy-Fair, which made it to the end despite competing with only 

three students. The winner-take-all final ended tied before Langham 

Creek prevailed in the fourth round of extra questions. 

Winning team members were freshman William Hudson, sophomores 

Madelynn Ponder and Sarah Warring, juniors Sarah Dao, Ben Hudson, 

Matthew Hudson and Christopher Land and senior Nadine Ineza. Juniors 

Kelsey Roberson, Aysha Alexander and Rosaleen Sweiti made up Cy- 

Fair’s runner-up team. Jersey Village High School finished third. 

Helping facilitate the competition and serving as judges and timers were 

current and former CFISD librarians and staff members, as well as Harris 

County Lone Star College-CyFair librarians Tracy Williams and Melanie 

Wachsmann.

Here are just a few activities that we have done within

Cadette troop 113035 went to Special Pals on Saturday 

4/9/19 and donated the hand-made pet toys along with 

some of the wish list items from their organization and 

a case of Girl Scout cookies for the hard workers and

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.

that.” Cost of VBS is $30. Scholarships are available for families in-need.

Warm weather means our gardens and landscapes are growing fast. 

Here are some tasks to keep your landscape beautiful and productive: 

Flowers: Time to plant summer blooming perennials and annuals 

including plumbago, zinnias, angelonia, purslane, lobularia, 

sunflowers, yellow bells, pride of Barbados, duranta and bat-faced 

cuphea. 

Vegetables: May is a great time to plant, from seed or nursery plants, 

okra, sweet potatoes, cucumbers, winter squash, pumpkins, basil, 

peppers, lima beans, eggplant, garlic chives and Malabar greens. If 

you don’t want to dedicate an area of your yard, consider planting 

here and there in your flowerbeds. Edible landscaping is a popular 

new trend! 

Lawns: Water 1/2 to 1” of irrigation per week. A rain gauge or straight 

sided container (such as a tuna fish can) will help you know how long 

to run your irrigation system to apply 1/2”. 

Weeding: Hand pull or hoe weeds while they are still young or better 

yet, maintain a 3” layer of mulch in all vegetable and flowerbeds to 

deter weeds from getting a start. 

Pruning: Remove spent blooms on spring and summer annuals to 

promote new blooms. 

Fertilizing: Fertilize flowerbeds and vegetable gardens w/slow release 

organic fertilizer. 

Water: Deep soakings between rain events is better than frequent 

light sprinkling. 

Birds: Spring migration continues until mid-May. Clean bird feeders! 

Replace water in bird baths to avoid creating mosquito breeding 

spots.
