By the time each resident receives their Tribune for March 2014, we will have a few new Twin Creek HOA Board Members. Neighborhood Watch would like to welcome each new member!
Neighborhood Watch would like to take a moment and express our gratitude and thanks to the previous HOA Board members, Tom Moody and Adam English for the years of volunteering of your time and energy into our community!
We especially would like to thank Tom Moody (former HOA President) for his support and encouragement along the way with all Neighborhood Watch endeavors. Tom attended the very first Neighborhood Watch presentation held at the club in 2012. Additionally, he took the time to let all Twin Creek residents know that the Board was not only excited about this program starting in the community, but extended the Board’s support to the Twin Creeks Neighborhood Watch program.
PARK UPDATE (PARK AT DERVINGHAM / IZORO BEND)We would like to thank our Twin Creek resident, Dale
Homburg, for taking the time to not only look into the problem, but find the solution to the million dollar question… Which law enforcement entity to call when there are issues in the park? After many phone calls, research and emails… Dale found the solution.
Normally the Travis County Sheriff’s department is dispatched to our community if there is a problem within Twin Creeks. Because the park is owned by the City of Cedar Park the Sheriff’s
department does not have jurisdiction within the park.If you need to report an incident in the park you are asked to:
Please contact Cedar Park Police NON EMERGENCY phone number - 512.260.4600 & press option 0.
Please make sure that you explain to the dispatcher the fact that the park belongs to the
City of Cedar Park, even though it is physically located within Twin Creeks.
NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH BLOCK CAPTAINSWelcome to our newest Block Captain, Lionel Dyck, for
Mystic Summit Dr.With so many new homes being built in The Reserve we are
grateful for all the new residents who have stepped up to get involved and volunteer in their new community. Very little time is involved to serve as a block captain and the rewards of a safer neighborhood are certainly worth the effort!
Why not volunteer to serve as a Block Captain by contacting Twin Creeks Neighborhood Watch Chairperson, Terra Tisdale, at [email protected].
Block Captains for the following streets are still needed:

WANT YOUR SKIN TO GLOW?"All Natural" Might Not Be The Way To Go If you want your skin to glow, experts at Baylor College of
Medicine say all natural products might not be the answer. "Some people think that by going all natural with their skin
care, that it will automatically be safer for their skin. That's not necessarily the case," said Dr. Rajani Katta, professor of dermatology at Baylor.
Whether it is cleansers or moisturizers, you can still have allergic reactions to the ingredients even if they are all natural or organic. Many natural ingredients, such as lavender extract or sandalwood oil, are actually types of fragrance additives. Even though these are natural fragrances, they can still cause the same type of allergic reactions. Other natural ingredients, such as tea tree oil, can also trigger allergic reactions.
Since it may be hard to pinpoint exactly what is causing irritation or allergic reactions just by reading labels, Katta suggests consulting a dermatologist.

FOLLOW UP ON YOUR HEART HEALTH
Eating healthy and exercising are well known tips to keep your heart healthy, but doctors at Baylor College of Medicine say don't forget about the follow-ups.
"Many times people will see a doctor and receive a diagnosis of high cholesterol or blood pressure, for example, but they won't follow up with another appointment," said Dr. Joseph Coselli, professor of surgery at Baylor. "These secondary doctor visits are needed to monitor progression of risk factors and to help find the most effective treatment options."
Coselli recommends asking your doctor some important questions:
• What is a healthy weight for me?
• What does a balanced diet consist of?
• How do I quit smoking?
• What exercises should I add to my daily routine?
• What health screenings should I have?
• When should I follow up with my next appointment?
"You have to be responsible for your health and make important changes to keep your heart healthy," Coselli said.

Prevent Colon Cancer In Less Than An HourRegular screenings for colon cancer can catch the deadly
disease before it even begins, according to doctors at Baylor College of Medicine.
"Colon cancer is known as the silent killer because symptoms are not present until it's too late," said Dr. Waqar Qureshi, professor of medicine and chief of endoscopy at Baylor.
Symptoms include rectal bleeding, abdominal pain, weight loss or anemia. But if symptoms are apparent, then it¹s more than likely the cancer has already spread. Screening can catch precancerous growths at a time when life-saving treatments are still effective.
A colonoscopy is the most accurate way to find precancerous growths. A colonoscopy takes up to 20 minutes, and patients are sedated so most don't even remember the procedure.
"Usually screenings start at age 50 and continue every 10 years after that," said Qureshi. "However, if colon cancer runs in your family, screenings should be more frequent and begin sooner."
