The Yard of the Month for May <strong>2021</strong> is awarded to Viki Henson<br />
LeCamu and Gary LeCamu of 22403 S. Rebecca Burwell.<br />
Vicki and Gary were married in 2019 after dating for 20 years! At<br />
home their “baby” is their 13 year old dog Molly. Their son, Steven<br />
LeCamu, lives in Denver, Colorado with his wife Sloan. Vicki is<br />
now retired after working for Chevron Corporation for 40 years<br />
and now keeps herself busy working with glass mosaics and<br />
fusing along with her gardening. Gary is still working running two<br />
businesses.<br />
MAY YARD OF THE MONTH<br />
lantanas in red, yellow, orange and pink. The pink azaleas in those<br />
beds froze but are now showing signs of life as are several of their<br />
hibiscus plants. These beds also include orange cannas; white<br />
crepe myrtle; spider plants and roses in red, pink and yellow. Their<br />
yard is certified by monarchwatch.org as providing a monarch<br />
butterfly friendly environment. In the center of the side yard,<br />
they have many milkweed plants for the monarch butterflies and<br />
caterpillars and in that same bed thy have a large leaf milkweed as<br />
they do in their backyard. Continuing the butterfly friendly theme<br />
their backyard also has milkweed and pipevine plants<br />
As they live on a corner lot Vicki and Gary have a huge yard which<br />
they put to excellent use by filling it with a large variety of trees<br />
and plants. The front yard contains two well-maintained pine<br />
trees, surrounded with wandering purple jew which has small<br />
pink flowers that the bees love. They also have a beautiful white<br />
magnolia tree that has paperwhite bulbs in the bed below it.<br />
Like so many of our yards theirs also is still recuperating from the<br />
damage done by our February freeze. Their beautiful ivy in that<br />
bed froze and has not yet shown signs of life - but they say that<br />
they still have hope! Their yard also has a couple of oak trees and a<br />
large pecan tree from which the squirrels get most of the pecans.<br />
But Vicki and Gary say they don’t mind! Surrounding the house<br />
are flower beds with a large variety of plants including a red tip<br />
photinia; more wandering purple jew; a pink pillow shamrock<br />
plant that dies down in the heat of the summer; purple salvia and<br />
4<br />
All the flowerbeds in the front are surrounded by beautiful natural<br />
brown rocks. At the front door entrance, there are several pot<br />
plants one being a huge Christmas cactus. There are also two<br />
ivies, one named monstera adansonia swiss cheese and the other<br />
is a money plant ivy. There is also a miniature cypress tree that<br />
Vicki got at Christmas and which still has the bow on it!<br />
Vicki says that the thing she likes about the <strong>Settlement</strong> are the<br />
wonderful people who live here and the mature trees that you<br />
can only have in a subdivision as old as ours.<br />
Our congratulations go to Vicki and Gary in being awarded May<br />
<strong>2021</strong> Yard of the Month. The result of the effort that they spend<br />
on their yard is much appreciated by all of us – as well as by the<br />
monarch butterflies!<br />

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING<br />
The <strong>2021</strong> Annual General Meeting of members of the <strong>Williamsburg</strong><br />
<strong>Settlement</strong> Maintenance Association was held on April 20 th at our<br />
Clubhouse. The main business of the meeting was the election of<br />
two directors to fill the expiring terms of CO Holt and Dave Ellis<br />
plus two vacancies left following the resignations of Chris Cox and<br />
more recently, for health reasons, Michael Wood.<br />
Unfortunately, no candidates stood for election for the two<br />
vacancies left by these resignations. Both CO and Dave were<br />
elected by acclamation each for another 3-year term.<br />
As the one-year terms of the Association Officers expire at the<br />
annual meeting it has to be followed by a regular Board meeting<br />
to elect new officers. At this Board meeting CO was reelected as<br />
President and Dave as Association Secretary and Treasurer.<br />
A REMINDER OF AN OVERLOOKED<br />
MAINTENANCE FEE PAYMENT OPTION<br />
For those who every year have difficulty in making the January<br />
1 st Association maintenance fee payment there is an option<br />
that you may want to consider. Although at first blush it may<br />
seem counter-intuitive, with a bit of advance planning it has<br />
considerable advantages. This is to get “ahead of the curve” and<br />
pre-pay your fees. At no cost to you you can make regular (or<br />
irregular!) payments of any value either by check or on-line via<br />
the Crest website thus building a pre-paid balance. So when<br />
the invoice for the following year arrives you will have a part<br />
or all of it already paid! And you will avoid all fees and interest<br />
charges associated with a Payment Agreement; you will be<br />
able to get your pool tags and rent the clubhouse; you won’t<br />
get your trash cut off for late payment and you will never end<br />
up with large collection bills from the Association Attorney.<br />
What’s not to love about this?<br />

STREET LIGHT OUTAGES<br />
To report a burned out streetlight, any resident may call<br />
CenterPoint directly at 713-207-2222. However, for those with<br />
Internet access, you may also make this report on-line. For those<br />

to you if more information is required. On the following page<br />
enter the details of the light(s) with the problem. Just as you<br />
would if reporting the outage via the telephone, you will need<br />
to provide the street address where the light is located and the<br />

pole. Under normal circumstances the crew will be out to fix the<br />
problem within 7 working days.<br />
Anyone noticing a streetlight that is out or has some other<br />
malfunction is encouraged to report the problem to CenterPoint<br />
via either of these two methods without delay. Our Association is<br />
charged for every streetlight each month, irrespective of whether<br />
or not the light is functioning. So please help us get value for your<br />
hard earned money!<br />

OF WILLIAMSBURG SETTLEMENT MAINTENANCE ASSOCIATION, INC AND<br />
THE FOLLOWING MEETING OF THE ASSOCIATION BOARD OF DIRECTORS<br />
The Annual Meeting of Member of the <strong>Williamsburg</strong> <strong>Settlement</strong> Maintenance Association, Inc. was held on Tuesday, April 20, <strong>2021</strong> at 7<br />
PM at the <strong>Williamsburg</strong> <strong>Settlement</strong> clubhouse, 1602 Hoyt, Katy, Texas 77449.<br />

Board Members present were Dave Ellis, CO Holt, Jim Calvert,<br />
James Kelley and Bill Petry.<br />
Also, in attendance was Cindy Bojé, representing Crest<br />
Management.<br />

established, the meeting was called to order at 7 PM<br />
APPROVAL OF MINUTES<br />
The minutes of the March 16, <strong>2021</strong> Board of Directors Meeting were<br />
presented and a motion was made, seconded and unanimously<br />
approved to accept the minutes as written.<br />
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS<br />
The next item on the agenda was the election of four (4) directors.<br />
Two positions will each be for a three (3) year term and two<br />
positions will be to fill two director vacancies the terms of which<br />
expire in 2023. There were two (2) candidates on the ballot, CO<br />
Holt and Dave Ellis. The floor was opened for nominations. There<br />

FINANCIAL PRESENTATION<br />
The next item on the agenda was the Association financial report,<br />
a copy of which was included in the members’ packets. The<br />
report was presented by Dave Ellis, the Treasurer. He reminded<br />
those present that the Association budgets for both the annual<br />
operating expenses and to fund the periodic replacement of<br />
the Association’s infrastructure as items reach the end of their<br />
operating lives and that the funds are maintained and managed<br />
in two separate accounts for this purpose. He presented the 2020<br />
budget followed by the financial results for the year showing<br />
performance compared with that predicted and explained how<br />
a reserve study is update annually to compute the required<br />
contribution to the capital reserve.<br />
He concluded by stating that the Association’s finances are in<br />
excellent health. 2020 was closed out with a surplus in excess of<br />
$60K due primarily to the termination of the HOA funded security<br />
patrols and a capital reserve funding level of 102%.<br />
COMMUNITY OPERATIONS UPDATE<br />
CO Holt informed the members that the Association has<br />
completed several projects this year including the replacement<br />
of the lighting in the clubhouse big room and exterior hallway<br />
and replacement of the pool diving board. New Christmas<br />
decorations were also purchased and installed. CO stated that,<br />
6<br />
as could be seen by the attendees, the clubhouse suffered major<br />
damages during the freeze and the Association is working with<br />
approved contractors to return it to service as soon as possible.<br />
As the kitchen was badly impacted the opportunity is being<br />
taken to bring forward a planned upgrade to include replacing<br />
the aging kitchen appliances. The big room repairs will include<br />
replacing the carpet and vinyl tiles and also the installation of<br />
sound absorbing panels on the big room walls to improve the<br />
acoustics. Future planned projects include adding Wi-Fi capability<br />
and enhancements to our security surveillance system.<br />
HOMEOWNER OPEN FORUM<br />
At this time, there was a general question and answer period<br />
covering various topics including the Association’s savings from<br />
the removal of the HOA funded security to cover Association<br />
ongoing expenses and gratitude to the MUD Board for installing<br />

PET ID TAGS<br />
Folks - as soon as the vet gives your young pets their Rabies shot<br />
remember to get their ID tags. The Rabies tag lists the name, phone<br />
number and address of the vet. So! All you need to do is put the Rabies<br />
tag onto the pet’s collar and leave it there all the time. That way, if the<br />
pet gets loose, anyone finding him or her can look at the tag to see<br />
the vet’s phone number and call to report the lost animal. Better yet,<br />
add another tag to your pet’s collar that lists the dog or cat’s name<br />
and your own phone number or address. You can get these from any<br />
pet store. When a pet has these but goes astray, anyone finding it can<br />
call you and you can go get him or her right away. Your pet will be<br />
very glad to see you! A happy pet is a loving pet.<br />

residents. While you may know your pet is friendly, an animal<br />
running at someone who is walking by is very scary for that person.<br />
Many children are afraid of animals and become frightened, which<br />
could result in the child getting hurt trying to avoid the animal.<br />
Veterinary Public Health (formerly called Harris County Animal<br />
Control) advises that, “All dogs and cats must be kept under<br />
restraint while in the unincorporated areas of Harris County, Texas.<br />

The custodian of a dog or cat is not authorized to have, harbor<br />
or keep any unlicensed dog or cat or to allow any dog or cat to<br />
become a stray.”<br />
Restraint is defined as the control of a dog or cat under the<br />
following circumstances:<br />
1. When it is controlled by a line or leash not more then six (6)<br />
feet in length, if the line or leash is held by a human being who<br />
is capable of controlling or governing the dog or cat in question.<br />
2. When it is within a fully enclosed vehicle.<br />
3. When it is on the premise of the custodian and the animal does<br />
not have access to sidewalk to street.<br />
While it may be nice to have your animal out in the yard while you<br />
work or play, it is against the law, unless the animal is properly<br />
restrained.<br />
Let’s all help keep our community a safe and comfortable place<br />
for all our residents by being responsible pet owners. This will not<br />
only protect anyone who may be walking or bicycling in the area,<br />
but also the pet owner who could be held legally responsible or<br />
possibly sued for failing to properly restrain their pet.<br />

KISD NEWS<br />
KATY VIRTUAL SCHOOL RECOGNIZED FOR<br />
OUTSTANDING DISTANCE LEARNING<br />
At Katy Independent School District, online learning has become<br />
an increasingly popular and effective method of education, by both<br />
students and parents, because of the expanded learning opportunities<br />
available. Due to its commitment to offer distance education, the<br />
District’s Katy Virtual School (KVS) has been recognized by the Texas<br />
Distance Learning Association (TxDLA) as the <strong>2021</strong> K-12 winner of the<br />
Outstanding Commitment to Excellence and Innovation in Distance<br />
Education recognition.<br />
“Katy ISD was the only K-12 school district in Texas to receive such a<br />
prestigious award,” said Susan Richards, Katy ISD Instructional Technology<br />
e-Learning Manager. “KVS has expanded over the years to provide<br />
secondary students quality instruction outside of normal school hours and<br />
during the summer to support their graduation plans,” added Richards.<br />
KVS launched in 2013 with a primary goal of offering choice and<br />
flexibility for rigorous online courses developed and taught by Katy ISD<br />
teachers. Over 45 Advanced Placement (AP), Katy Advanced Program and<br />
academic level courses were available to students this year with more<br />
courses being added each year. Just last year, over 4,000 students utilized<br />
KVS to reach their educational goals. KVS is a different program from the<br />
recently developed Katy Virtual Academy (KVA), which was created for<br />
online learning during the pandemic.<br />
DONATUTORS<br />
Donatutors is a nonprofit tutoring organization that donates 100% of<br />

many different math courses too. We charge $20 per class, but the first<br />
one is free! For more information, check out donatutors.com or email<br />
us at donatutors@gmail.com. What’s even cooler is that this summer<br />
Donatutors was able to raise $1,283 which we used 70% to give to a<br />
Houston based charity called NAMI and 30% to buy a bunch of masks<br />
and canned food for donation. Please check us out!<br />
JUNE IS NATIONAL CAMPING MONTH<br />
National Camping Month in <strong>June</strong> is an excellent time to pack up your<br />
gear and experience nature. Whether you like roughing it or prefer<br />
to have a few modern conveniences when heading out to the trail, it’s<br />
important to keep a few things in mind:<br />
1. Make sure you have plenty of fresh water or a fresh water source.<br />
2. Take a first aid kit and that it is stocked.<br />
3. Pack waterproof matches.<br />
4. Take non-perishable food such as granola bars, jerky, peanut butter,<br />
chocolate bars and dried fruits, especially if you are not taking a cooler.<br />
5. Pack fruits, vegetables and meats separately and keep chilled in a<br />
cooler.<br />
6. Include sunblock, even for cloudy days.<br />
7. Rain gear, jackets and blankets are necessary for cooler weather.<br />
Around the country, there are a variety of campsites available. The more<br />
modern campsite includes showers and recreational facilities. These often<br />
include water hookups and parking pads for RVs and campers and cabins to<br />
rent as well as more primitive sites with no electrical hookups designed for<br />
tent usage. Other parks only allow primitive camping and require everything<br />
you pack into the park to be packed out. So, seriously consider your needs<br />
if you are hiking into the park for your stay. These are not for the glampers.<br />
Gather family and friends, don’t forget the s’mores supply and go<br />
camping! Nature is calling and there are so many ways to enjoy a<br />
weekend or even more camping. National Camping Month has been<br />
observed since the 1970s.<br />

8 BEST SUMMER VACATION<br />
DESTINATIONS IN TEXAS<br />
1. GALVESTON: If you’re looking for a classic beach getaway, then a visit<br />
to Galveston is a must. Galveston beach is a popular summer destination<br />
among Texans, especially those in Houston, since Galveston is only about an<br />
hour drive from downtown. Galveston offers more than just the beach too,<br />
however beach fun is why many people flock here. Enjoy great shopping<br />
along the Strand, escape the heat by visiting Moody Gardens or try the<br />
thrilling water rides at Schlitterbahn Waterpark. There are plenty of hotels,<br />
resorts, and rental properties here that cater to the influx of summer tourism.<br />
2. GARNER STATE PARK: Spend time camping and tubing down the Frio<br />
River when you visit Garner State Park this summer. Garner State Park,<br />
located in Concan, Texas, is a popular summer destination among Texans.<br />
Although there are plenty of hiking and wildlife watching opportunities<br />
in the park, the main draw here is truly the Frio River, where the state park<br />
has 10 acres of river frontage. Many people kayak, tube, fish and even<br />
snorkel here. Garner State Park is so popular during the summer that<br />
the park hosts live music concerts on the weekend. This Texas summer<br />
destination is definitely a family-friendly spot.<br />
3. CORPUS CHRISTI: If you’re looking for more of a quiet beach scene than<br />
Galveston, then Corpus Christi is more your vibe. Tourism grows here during<br />
the summer and for good reason. Corpus Christi, or simply referred to as<br />
“Corpus” by Texans, has beautiful Gulf Coast beaches that are perfect for<br />
sunbathing, surfing, and windsurfing. If you’ve grown tired of the beach scene,<br />
the town of Corpus Christi offers a number of attractions, such as the Texas<br />
State Aquarium, the South Texas Botanical Garden, and the U.S.S Lexington.<br />
4. SAN ANTONIO: Escape to central Texas this summer by vacationing in<br />
San Antonio. With a unique city vibe full of history and culture, this Texas<br />
city makes for a great summer getaway. Stroll the Riverwalk to enjoy a great<br />
meal, explore the Alamo to learn about Texas history or even enjoy a thrilling<br />
roller coaster at Six Flags Fiesta Texas. San Antonio is a great summer vacation<br />
for foodies, since the area is packed with incredible restaurants from hole-inthe-wall<br />
Mexican joints to classy cuisine found along the Riverwalk.<br />
5. SOUTH PADRE ISLAND: South Padre Island may be known as a spring<br />
break destination but it shouldn’t be dismissed as a great summer travel<br />
spot as well. This Gulf Coast town is home to the most beautiful beaches in<br />
the Lone Star State. If you’re hoping for beach time this summer, then South<br />
Padre Island should be your destination of choice. With miles of white sand,<br />
plenty of shops to occupy your non-beach days, and even a Schlitterbahn<br />
Waterpark location, South Padre Island transcends from its spring break<br />
reputation into a popular spot during the summer months too.<br />
6. AUSTIN: Texas’ capital city has plenty to see and do during the summer<br />
months. Known as the Live Music Capital of the World, music lovers will<br />
find plenty of live music acts in Austin when they visit during <strong>June</strong>, July<br />
and August. Big headliners always hit up ATX during their summer tours,<br />
while local acts can be seen for free anywhere from coffee shops, local<br />
music venues and even the airport. Visit the Texas State Capitol, view the bat<br />
colony under the South Congress Bridge at dusk, shop the electric boutiques<br />
along South Congress Avenue and enjoy a wide variety of food truck cuisine<br />
during your summer stay in Austin. If you’re looking to escape the heat, take<br />
a dip in the Barton Creek Greenbelt or Barton Springs Pool.<br />
7. NEW BRAUNFELS: New Braunfels is a Hill Country destination that has<br />
grown into a popular summer getaway due to the Guadalupe and Comal<br />
Rivers and the up-and-coming craft beer scene here. Beat the Texas heat<br />
by floating in the cool waters of the Comal or Guadalupe Rivers. New<br />
Braunfels has strong German roots, so enjoy a bratwurst and a German<br />
beer during your summer stay here. If dancing and live music is your<br />
thing, then don’t miss out on a visit to the historic Gruene Hall, which is<br />
only 10 minutes outside of New Braunfels.<br />
8. BIG BEND NATIONAL PARK: Last but not least is Big Bend National<br />
Park. Although this park is located in west Texas, a desert environment,<br />
don’t let the heat scare you away. Take a hike during the early mornings<br />
or evenings to catch views of wildlife and avoid the desert heat during<br />
the day. This area is also known for its dark night skies, so stargazing is a<br />
must when you visit during the summer. Take a scenic drive or raft the Rio<br />
Grande to find a cool escape in this desert oasis.<br />

KATY’S NEWEST FILMMAKING AND ANIMATION<br />
CAMP CREATED BY SLHS ALUMNI<br />
Howdy! Our names are Kai, Cazden, Robbie and Jack, we are four SLHS<br />
Alumni and Texas Film School Graduates. For the past year we have<br />
been creating Katy’s newest and only Animation and Filmmaking camp,<br />
Creator Camp! Our goal is to share with students the wonders of film and<br />
animation without the dullness of note taking and lectures. We designed<br />
our 3-day camps so that students will learn hands-on and in real-time,<br />
creating Special effects, Green Screen effects, Sound effects and loads<br />
more. Each day, students will come home with a new movie they created<br />
themselves and on the last day we will transform a classroom into a<br />
mock Oscars Film Festival where your child will pick their favorite film<br />
that they made to be shown on the big screen! We are running our first<br />
camps this summer and we would love to have some support from the<br />
local community to get us off to a good start. Camps are held at Mirus<br />
Academy Katy, 5561 3 rd St, Katy, TX 77493 and Each camper will receive a<br />
free shirt and goody bag. Two Sessions will be held this summer:<br />
Session 1: <strong>June</strong> 28 th -30 th : 8:30 AM-3:30 PM<br />
Session 2: July 20 th -22 nd : 8:30 AM-3:30 PM<br />

ROSE THERAPEUTIC FARM AND GOAT YOGA<br />
SUMMER CAMPS<br />
ROSE Therapeutic Farm Summer Camps are an exciting way to light<br />
up any young person’s summer. Our camps provide unique, hands-on<br />
opportunities for learning, growth, and fun. Campers spend their time<br />
here immersed in the natural world, with animals and the environment.<br />
Each camp is loaded with creative, enriching activities meant to help<br />
your kiddos connect with nature and learn how to enjoy “the simple life.”<br />
This is meant to be a real farm/ranch life experience so we will get dirty!<br />
We will also be outside all day. We have a large barn where we will do our<br />
crafts, eat lunch and other activities but it is not air-conditioned. Please<br />
have your kiddos dress accordingly. If they don’t like being outdoors or<br />
getting dirty, this may not be the camp for them.<br />
* 1 to 4 day sessions available.<br />
*Our camps are geared toward children ages 6 – 12.<br />
*Each camp will have 18 or less participants. We must have at least 5<br />
campers to start each camp.<br />
Lunch can be provided or you can send a bag lunch with your kiddos.<br />
We have a cooler we will keep these in. We will have access to fresh iced<br />
water all day. Of course you are welcome to send a lunch with your kiddo<br />
if you choose.<br />

We have done everything we can to try and reopen our doors, including<br />
becoming the first theater in the country to install hospital grade UV<br />
lights in our air filtration system. We even offered a safe and distanced<br />
indoor concert as well as an indoor offering from our educational touring<br />
unit this past fall. And when those projects proved financially challenging<br />
and COVID numbers spiked again, we created “Light Up the Lot” and<br />
moved all our programming outdoors.<br />
We’ve never given up. We never will give up. But due to circumstances<br />
beyond our control, we find ourselves needing to pivot once more.<br />
Which brings us to the announcement of our virtual season. Go to www.<br />
