Newsletter - June 2006 View the Courtyard Homeowners Association Newsletter each month online at www.PEELinc.com Courtyard Homeowners Association, Inc. June 2006 Volume 5, Number 6 This month we would like to look back to April and the Easter egg hunt and party in our Courtyard Park along Bull Creek. If you missed it I can tell you it was great. I think the total count was about 200. There were kids every where. At times the playscape was in full use and was enjoyed by all. There was the Easter egg hunt for all the different age groups, which included a variety of gifts and prizes. There were lots of great refreshments for everyone. All in all, it was the best and most attended Easter egg hunt and party yet. A big thank you to all the Social Committee members and volunteers who made it all happen. GREAT JOB!! After seeing the number of kids in the park for Easter it’s becoming real clear that our Courtyard community has become a full family community. With that comes a responsibility to protect the kids. Several community members have called to say they noticed people driving slower in the Courtyard. Maybe it’s working. So we will continue to stress when you’re driving in the Courtyard to drive slow. Remember, if you drive slowly, it only takes an extra 15 seconds to get from 360 to home or from home to 360. We think it’s worth the effort, and we thank you for your help and concern. Message From Your President and Board Good Things Are Happening Well the roads are done and the gravel has finally gone wherever loose gravel goes. The Courtyard is much improved in appearance because of the efforts of the road crew. We were looking a little shabby with all of the tar lines down the streets but now that the lines are a thing of the past and we can proudly and safely drive our cars without fear of dents from flying pebbles. The heat is here to stay and the gardens have all taken on their summer look. The winter flowers have withered or been taken away and the summer flowers are planted and anticipating a long hot run. The planting add a wonderfully cozy look to our environment and make those who pass thru our midst realize that we care about our homes and this community. It is time to enjoy the swimming pool, the hiking trails and the tennis courts to their fullest and to reach out to our neighbors enjoying social gatherings on the patio and in the comfort of our air conditioned homes. With the hurricane season here we can stop a moment and breath a sigh of relief that we have chosen to live inland. Texas has unpredictable weather, to say the least, but nothing that we can’t handle. Heat is our constant companion with winds and hail coming in a close second. Enjoy the many amenities of our life here in the Capitol of Texas and don’t forget to drink lots of water. WELCOME New Courtyard Residents Please welcome your new neighbors and be sure to add their names to your directory.
