Monday July 4th started out warm and sunny. It was perfect weather for a parade. Patriotism and Red White & Blue filled the air as community members gathered at the Library for the Annual Atascocita ACIA parade. Leading the parade were Pct. 4 Constables followed by decorated bicycles, cars, golf carts, wagons, and even a few pets. Atascocita Fire Department brought Ladder Truck 19 and an Ambulance to add some color and noise to the parade. As community residents came out to watch, the parade made its way to The Overlook where refreshments and food awaited. Pct. 4 Constables graciously agreed to be the parade judges this year. As the officers were pressed to make a decision, one commented it’s too hard! Everything looks wonderful!

The following are the 2016 ACIA 4th of July Parade winners.BEST DECORATED:Age 3 and Under Gianna ReyesAge 4-6 Cosette LaBoredAge 7-10 Valerie NorthrudAge 10-13 Sean HeltonAge 14 and up Jody ShumpertFloat Cole MilsapVehicle Rosalee & Lilliana FlorezAnimal “Toby” Nancy Chaffman, ownerMost Patriotic Pierson & Morgan LandBest in Show Gemma HartCongratulations to all of you and we look forward to seeing you again next year.Thanks to everyone who put in the time to participate in this year’s parade.

Atascocita residents enjoy the beauty of Lake Houston every day as we drive through our neighborhoods, cross the bridges to Kingwood or Huffman, or visit one of our neighborhood parks that are part of this lovely community. Some of us may boat, ski or kayak around the many inlets and islands on the lake. Water has such a way of bringing a peace to our souls and a calm to our often times, busy lives. Even if for just a few minutes, we gain a different perspective by relaxing near or on the lake.

What you may not know is that there are hundreds of volunteer hours spent preserving the integrity of the lake and the inhabitants therein. Part of this work is done through the Lake Houston Sports & Recreation Foundation (LHSRC) via a strategic alliance with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD). This alliance is the re-stocking program.

The re-stocking program has introduced species of plants into the lake that provide long term benefits to the ecosystem as well as 356,093 Florida largemouth bass since 2013. Of those numbers, 80,000 were introduced into the lake in June of this year. Prior to this stocking program, the last fish introduced were palmetto bass in 1998.

If you have visited the Atascocita Branch of Harris County Public Library, you and your family may have attended programs, including summer reading, used computers, enjoyed reading periodicals, and other activities. You may not know that the Friends of the Atascocita Library provides approximately $20,000 a year for programs and materials not funded by Harris County.

The late Odell Dreyer, retired educator and community volunteer, began the quest for a library in Atascocita in 1987. The path was fraught with difficulties including funding and a land search. The one constant was a community united in a desire to have a library in Atascocita. The Atascocita Branch Library opened May 5, 1996 and just celebrated it’s 20 year anniversary.

Fundraising has been an ongoing necessity, beginning with FOAL’s nonprofit incorporation in 1991 and continuing today. Used book sales provide the bulk of funds, including 2 large used book sales a year & daily sales on FOAL’s used bookshelves in the lobby & just inside the library doors. Most books are 50¢ - $1.00 & everyone loves 25¢ magazines. Corporate volunteer grants are another source of funds earned by employees & retirees of companies such as ExxonMobil, Chevron, Best Buy & others. Donations, including memorials and matching funds from some companies, are also important contributions.

Recently FOAL installed a beautiful professional mural & new carpet in the meeting room. The new electronic sign with color graphics was added in front of the library last July, after $24,000 was raised in addition to the budget. The community will be better informed of library programs and activities with quickly updated information on the sign.

Most programs; including those for children, teens, adults, and the summer reading program for all ages, with crafts, prizes, and exciting programs, are funded by FOAL. Periodical subscriptions, continuations, audio books, and other media are also included in FOAL’s budget. Several years ago, when the county budget was particularly stretched, FOAL raised an additional $23,000 to replace

Friends of the Atascocita Library18 computers. When a security camera system was deemed necessary, FOAL took on the responsibility, including maintenance.

Membership in FOAL is tax deductible, with single memberships $5 per year; families, $10 per year; & business/group/patron level, $25 per year. Members enjoy entrance to a preview sale the evening before the public used book sales and 2 newsletters a year to stay informed of FOAL & library activities.

The Atascocita Branch Library is located at 19520 Pinehurst Trail Dr. For more information about FOAL, visit www.FOAL.ws or email: [email protected]. For library hours and calendar visit: www.hcpl.net & click on Atascocita Branch.

Used Book SaleBack to School & Christmas in August

The Friends of the Atascocita Library (FOAL) will hold a used book sale Saturday, August 13, from 10AM - 5PM at the Atascocita Library, 19520 Pinehurst Trail Dr. Individuals with disabilities may shop from 9AM -10AM. Preview sale for FOAL members is Friday evening from 5PM-7PM, with memberships available at the door. Individual memberships are $5 & families $10 per year.This will be a back to school sale with teaching materials and Christmas in August sale with holiday items donated by H-E-B. In addition there is a large set of 6 inch letters for a portable sign. There is a large selection including fiction & nonfiction, hard backs & paperbacks, children’s books, music CD's, magazines & much more. Most are priced at $.50 - $1.00 with music CD’s & magazines 25¢ each. FOAL reusable book bags are available for $3. Due to space limitations, no wheeled carts or strollers are allowed. Donations of used books & magazines are welcome anytime during regular library hours.Visit  www.hcpl.net  for library hours &  www.foal.ws  for more information, or email  [email protected]. All proceeds benefit the Atascocita Library.

The Lake Houston group also works with the City of Houston to improve navigation and safety on the lake which has a surface area of 11,854 acres with a maximum depth of 45 feet. Currently there is very little marking or identification of the depths of the lake, submerged objects or overall on-lake identification. Most recently, buoys were placed near the waterways surrounding the Kings Harbor area of the Lake. Capital projects such as placing depth markers, channel buoys and other lake identification are in progress.

LHSRC (a 501c3 non-profit) is formed from members of the community who are interested in the improvement of Lake Houston. The mission of the Foundation is to increase public awareness of the value of having a major lake (Lake Houston) in our community by hosting several fundraising events in which the proceeds will benefit the fishery, habitat and other various Lake Houston projects.

In previous newsletters, I offered tips on how to hit a forehand groundstroke, a two-handed backhand, one-handed backhand, forehand volley, the two handed backhand volley, the serve, the forehand half-volley, the one-handed backhand volley and the overhead “smash”.

In this issue, I will offer you instructions on how to execute the second most important shot in the game of tennis: The Service Return, since it is the response to the first most important shot of the game: The Serve. In the illustrations, Jill Schmidt, player at the Grey Rock Tennis Club, shows the proper technique to execute this stroke.

Step 1: The Ready Position: When Jill is getting ready to return the serve, her eyes are focused on the tennis ball held by the opponent. Knees are relaxed and the hands are holding the racket with a relaxed grip.

Step 2: The Back Swing: Once Jill realizes that the ball has been directed to her forehand, she will turn her upper body and will take the racket back. Notice that the left hand is up in front to allow her to keep her center of gravity in the center. She has loaded her weight on her right foot and will be ready to step

How to execute The Forehand Service Returnforward to meet the ball

Step 3: The Point of Contact: Jill now is ready to step into the ball. She has kept her eye on the ball and her center of gravity now is shifted to the point of contact. Notice the left knee being slightly bent and the left foot is pointing to the ball meeting the racket

Step 4: The Extension of the Point of Contact: Jill is now directing the ball toward the opponent’s court. Her eyes have now shifted toward her target and her body weight is now fully in front of her left foot. The left hand is still helping to keep the center of gravity in the center without opening up too early.

Step 5: The Follow Through: Once Jill has finished her stroke, the momentum of the racket continues to move almost to a point behind her neck. Her left hand is next to her body and her right elbow is pointing toward her target. Her body is now ready to take the “split step” with both feet in order to prepare for the opponent’s returned shot.

How does it work? Lets say you have a design you would like for a one-off custom shirt. We take your

idea and design it for you. Once you approve the design we make it available in our store for you to purchase.

Who do we work with? We work with individuals as well as partner with organizations and businesses. Some of our partners are CrossFit boxes. We relieve the box owners of the hassle of mass shirt orders by creating their very own store within W4 Apparel. This allows their members to visit our site and order their shirts directly. We create custom designs at their request and even toss in a few of our own. We offer the same service for non-profits, businesses, and organizations of all kinds.

Visit us online and view our Partners to see who we are currently working with.

We would love to partner with you as well!

ACIA HAPPENINGSDead spots in the lawn? Look for chinch bugs….

Chinch bugs often appear in Texas lawns during hot, dry conditions. Usually damage starts in sunny locations or near driveway and sidewalk areas. Damage appears as irregular dead patches in the lawn surrounded by yellowing or dying grass. Chinch bug damage can be mistaken for other lawn problems like white grubs or fungal diseases, so confirmation of chinch bug activity is needed before choosing proper treatment.

So how do you tell if you have chinch bugs? The easiest way is to look for the insects. One way to look is to cut both ends out of a can, push it into the ground using a twisting motion and then fill the can with water for about 10 minutes and wait for any bugs to float to the top. Another way would be to get down on your hands and knees and part the grass to look for the insects. For both methods, samples should be taken in the damaged (yellowed grass), not dead, grass areas.

Chinch bugs are small (about 1/5 of an inch as adults; immatures are smaller). Adults are black with white wings containing triangular markings. Nymphs, or immatures, are yellowish or pinkish with a light colored band across their body. Nymphs do not have fully developed wings.

Treatment is usually a liquid or granular formulation. Liquid formulations are often bottles that attach to the end of the garden hose or concentrates that you mix with water in a tank sprayer. Granular formulations are applied with push spreaders and need to be watered in after treatment.

Treatment should be applied to the area where damage is occurring and several feet out from the damaged area; the entire yard does not have to be treated. All label instructions should be read and followed before and during the treatment.

For more information or help with identification, contact Wizzie Brown, Texas AgriLife Extension Service Program Specialist at 512.854.9600. Check out my blog at www.urban-ipm.blogspot.com
