Since April isNational Volunteer Month, I wanted to take a minute to thank all of theGPRA Board Members and Committee Chairs and volunteers who helpmake Grogan's Point THE BEST place to live. If you would like to join theteam, let us know. Whether you are a social butterfly or a numbercruncher, there are many different, fun ways to get involved and help yourneighborhood.

April begins the busy season for Claudia Rigamonti and the rest of ourBeautification Committee. In the next couple of months, our volunteers willbe working with a landscaper in several of our streetscapes, doing springcleanup, trimming foliage and adding new soil, mulch and mossrock. They will also be planting mondo grass, lantana, liriope, Asianjasmine and crepe myrtle trees. Thank you so much ladies!

Many thanks also go out to Meg Shaheen, the rest of the Adult EventsCommittee and for, Kelly Kinney, Kim Page, Martha and Lee Haag and to

Security

March was a very busy month for Security with Spring





March was a very busy month for Security with SpringBreak in full swing and loads of vacation watchesoccurring (YTD=286). To that point, if you filled out avacation watch form via the county website, we wouldlike to hear from you regarding your experience. Weare working very hard to streamline this as much aspossible, so your feedback is appreciated. A fewneighbors have inquired about the security ofinformation submitted this way. Requests made

through the Constable's website, via the link at www.groganspoint.org areviewed only by deputies. For further questions and feedback, please emailGPRA security directly at [email protected]. The midApril Security Member Report will have a tutorial on how to usethe website to submit vacation watch requests for those who are unsure orare unfamiliar. We now have five working speed signs in Grogans Point. Many thanks toour Commissioner’s office for getting them up so quickly. As always, we ask that as a community we also take part in keepingGrogan's Point as pristine and prestigious as it is. Aside from becoming apaid security program member to support our patrols, if you see anythingamiss, please report it by calling the nonemergency number (9367605800). No issue is too small to report via this number. For example, lastnight I noticed a few bikers riding with purple and yellow iris that they hadpulled right out of Pastoral Pond, roots and all. I reported the incident perthe nonemergency number. On a more serious note, this past week, a new resident reported hearinggunshots in the conservancy at night. Our onduty constables will watchthe access points with heightened awareness and adjust patrolsaccordingly. Extra patrols are only possible with a financially supportedprogram. As more neighbors become paid security members, we canafford these, and more, additional patrols as new issues are reported. The Constables who patrol as part of our paid security program areCorporal Robert Moody, Constable Richard Vogel and Constable AndrewNoel. When reporting incidents, please report as follows:

9367605800 = Nonemergency with 24 hr. dispatch

2813644223 = Corporal Moody's office phone for residents to leavequestions.

911 = Emergency

Real Estate UpdateHello, Everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful family Easter! I haveGOOD NEWS about our real estate market here in The Woodlands. March sales began and were very sluggish. Sales activity was sad overallin The Woodlands. It WAS looking like MLS sales for March would totalless than 200 and trail last March by 25% or so. HOWEVER, the velocityof sales in the last 2 weeks has caught on fire with over 10 listings a daygoing under contract. This means that March will likely end equal to lastyear and we are off to the races for the next 4 months! Buyer activity andshowings have spiked upward. In our neighborhood there are 28 homes available ranging from $550,000($158.09 PSF) up to $2,995,000 ($386.45 PSF). Three (3) homes havesold and closed this year ranging from $730,000 (136.09 PSF) up to$2,325,000 ($351.26 PSF). GREAT NEWS is there are 5 homes undercontract ranging from $975,000 ($142.38) up to $1,350,000 ($203.77PSF).
