PRESIDENT’S CORNERHappy Autumn

HOMEOWNER HOMEWORKMeet The Neighbors!

This year is just flying by and November is already here! We want to encourage every homeowner or renter living here in Chandler Creek to get into the Spirit of the Season and dust off those awesome Holiday decorations! With our homeowners’ creative minds, it will be easy to “Bring the Holidays Home” to Chandler Creek. Remember to take special care with outside lighting. Ensure that all lights and extension cords are specifically rated for outdoor use, are in good working order, have no frayed cords or broken bulbs, and are securely affixed to your home or yard decorations with insulated staples. The Yard of the Month (YOTM) committee is looking forward to selecting the winners of the annual Best Decorated Yard contest!

Speaking of the YOTM Committee:YOTM Volunteer Needed!

We have an urgent need for someone to volunteer to be on the Yard of the Month selection committee. If you are interested, please contact us at [email protected] or call Alliance (347-2888) and ask for our community manager, Ed Wallen.

We would also like to give a big thank you to Kimberly Avery, who recently stepped aside from the committee, after serving for several years. We would also like to recognize our current committee members: Diane Barnes, Lily Metcalfe and Sharie Stocklin! These ladies have done a great job volunteering their time and efforts to select the Chandler Creek YOTM winners!

Now that Autumn is officially here, we are finally enjoying some cooler temperatures, but we are still dealing with extreme drought conditions. We want to remind everyone to be mindful of any and all watering restrictions that may be in place. If you are unsure as to the current restrictions Chandler Creek may be under, please contact the City of Round Rock at 512-218-5400. While we are all aware of that most famous November holiday, Thanksgiving, there is another holiday that I’d like to remind everyone of: Veterans Day (Friday, November 11, 2011).

This is the perfect time to honor all veterans…those who are currently serving and those who have served. A national holiday honoring all veterans was signed into law by President Dwight Eisenhower on May 26, 1954. Congress amended this

act on June 1, 1954, making the holiday known as “Veterans Day”. On behalf of the Directors and the Executive Committee, I’d like to take this

opportunity to send a big “Thank You” to all of our Chandler Creek veterans. Your service to the United States is appreciated!
