OUR HISTORY: Over these past ten plus years we've taken over a hundred trips. The Fairfield Gazette's web-site has back issues available from September, 2004. In order to go back to our beginning, we must thank Kelly Peel of Peel Inc. for locating all our articles from their archives and sending them to us. We now have every article submitted, which enabled us to put together Our History, and a complete listing of all our trips. Just go to Our History in our weekly email to read about our beginning and all the trips we’ve taken.

OUR SEPTEMBER BUS TRIP PLANS ARE FOR: Thursday, September 15, for four unusual tours around houston. We will be touring the Beer Can House and the Orange Show Monument, as well as, the Houston Fire Museum and the National Museum of Funeral History. The Beer Can House is a folk art gallery/workshop consisting of more than 50,000 beer cans. The house was built by John Milkovisch who hated to throw anything away and after years of drinking his attic and garage were busting with empty beer cans.

The Orange Show Monument is a 3,000 square foot monument which in its maze-like design includes an oasis, a wishing well, a pond, a stage, a museum and a gift shop. It was built single-handedly by the late Jefferson Davis McKissack. The monument encourages visitors to follow McKissack's theories relating health and longevity to good nutrition, hard work and eating oranges. The Houston Fire Museum houses a prized collection of 18th - 20th century fire service artifacts including a piece of structural steel from the Twin Towers (9/11). In addition to the self-guided tour we will enjoy a talk from an expert on fire safety for seniors. The cost for this trip will be $17.00 per person. Plus the cost of your lunch at Katz Deli, this has always been a popular place for us.

To get your name on the list for the trip list call:Jackie Wurth at 281-304-0805.

Checks are to be made out to: Fairfield 50 Plus. Checks can be given to Jackie Wurth, Kay Wheeler or Mary Lou Cook,


Around Fairfieldand also can be mailed to the Wurth's at 21119 North Yellow Bud Court, Cypress, Texas 77433. We will depart from the Fairfield Village Parking Lot promptly at 8:30 a.m. Please be there by 8:15 a.m.

OCTOBER: THERE IS NO OCTOBER BUS TRIP. We were not able to get a bus for October: however, we do have a bus for November and the details will be in next month.

OUR UPCOMING CRUISE SCHEDULE: We have put together a cruise aboard the Carnival Magic from Barcelona to Galveston, October 28 – November 13, 2011. We have eight couples already booked for this cruise. Along with a few ladies that have taken cabins together. This will be a really great trip. Check our web site for details.

OUR SEPTEMBER ACTIVITIES PLANS: Thursday, September 8: The Monthly Planning Committee meeting is at 1:00 p.m. at the Lakeside Trails Club House. Everyone is invited to attend these meetings and participate in our upcoming trip plans. We really need to see more participation, especially from those that are taking trips. In fact, without more participation we may be forced to cut back on some trips, possibly one every other month.

Then later, around 6:30 p.m. that evening, we have our Monthly Pot Luck. It is also at the Lakeside Trails Club House. However, plan on being there early. Doors open around 6:00 p.m. for socializing and fellowship. Then stay and join many of our members that stay to play games after the meal and to finish up the deserts. Tuesday, September 20: Game Night at the Cooks’ House. It starts around 6:30 p.m. Just bring a little snack and a healthy appetite. This is always a fun evening with great fellowship. The directions are in the Activity page on our website and will also be in our September 18 weekly newsletter. Thursday, September 29: Game Night at Lakeside Trails Club House. It has been moved to the fifth Thursday this month to avoid two games in one week. It starts around 6:30 p.m., and we have plenty of room at the club house. We would like to see you there to enjoy an evening of games and fellowship with us. Just bring a little snack and plan on having lots of fun. There are some card games, some games that the members bring and of course dominoes.

For additional information on activities other than trips: Call Mary Lou Cook @ 281-304-8359

The Fairfield Women’s Club is launching “Stop Our Soliciting” Campaign for Fairfield homeowners.

The Fairfield Women’s Club goal is to enhance our neighborhood. To address solicitation in Fairfield, we are offering a stop solicitation kit.

For a $19.99 donation to FWC, you will receive one sign for the flower bed in front of your house, one decal for your front doorbell area and one refrigerator magnet with the Sheriff’s Dept. phone number to report suspicious persons. If our neighborhood as a collected whole can embrace this campaign, we can pool our efforts together and make a huge dent in soliciting in Fairfield. To order your solicitation kit, log on to Fairfieldwomensclub.org and click on SOS (Stop Our Soliciting) tab. We will be accepting orders through the end of November. Pick-up dates and times will be posted on our fairfieldwomensclub.org website. Thank you for your participation and support. If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected]

Fairfield Book Club The Fairfield Book Club is a terrific way to meet other women in our community, enjoy great conversations, and develop new friendships. We meet the third Wednesday of each month (rotating homes) from 7 to 9:30pm. Book Club members share food and drinks while discussing the book selection for that month. We read all kinds of books suggested by our members - classics, contemporary fiction, non-fiction, biographies, romance, sci-fi, etc. There are no book snobs in our group - we read it all! If you are a book lover or simply want to expand your reading and social network, please consider joining us. We invite you to attend one of our meetings as a guest or a member. We currently have openings; however, because we hold meetings in our homes, membership is limited. For membership inquiries, please contact Linda Locke by email ([email protected], subject heading “Book Club”) or by phone (713-298-6514, evenings only).

MENTOR ONE CHILDChange Two Lives

CROSSROADS: Community Partnership for Youth Inc. (CROSSROADS), a United Way agency, provides mentoring for youth involved with the Harris County Juvenile Probation Department. These youth are in need of caring adults who can serve as mentors to provide encouragement and guidance. With thousands in the juvenile justice system, the need for mentors is growing.

Mentors must be at least 21 years of age, commit to 1 hour each week and attend a training and orientation session. There are many sites, areas (Katy, Clear Lake, Chimney Rock/Bellaire, and Downtown) and available times of the week for mentors to meet with their assigned child. Volunteers mentor boys and girls that are placed in facilities by the juvenile probation department and who are in desperate need of a positive role model.

The program is very simple, flexible and especially beneficially to both the youth and the mentor. Please consider devoting just one hour a week to the future of a needy and hurting child (10 -17 yrs. old). Many times you may be the only positive role model in their lives! The mission of CROSSROADS is to prevent or reduce youth involvement with the juvenile justice system by fostering positive relationships between youth and volunteers. CROSSROADS is symbolic of where the youth we serve are standing - at a critical point in time in their lives.

For more information you may contact us at 713-295-2779or visit our website at www.crossroads-volunteers.org.

SAFETY Safety is everyone’s concern and we want everyone to be out of harm’s way when on foot or on a bicycle travelling through the community. It has been brought to our attention that in the early hours of the morning, before sunrise, some joggers, runners, cyclists, strollers, etc. are not wearing some type of reflective clothing, making it difficult for drivers to see them in the darkness. For your safety, and so those driving in Fairfield during the early hours can see you, please have something reflective on your clothing, shoes or bicycle. We want everyone to be safe and therefore need everyone’s support. Thank you.

FLAGPOLES The following are the guidelines for all flagpoles placed at the front or back of one’s property in Fairfield Village. These guidelines have been adopted by each village in Fairfield and due to new state laws are in the process of being recorded with Harris County. It is imperative that anyone wishing to place a flagpole on their property submit their request accompanied by a copy of their lot survey (amongst your closing papers) indicating your proposed location based on the guidelines below. FRONT YARD:

The flagpole must be behind the 20 or 25 building line; if that •building line is directly in front of the residence or garage, the flag should be incorporated into the flowerbeds. The flagpole must be on the homeowner's side of the driveway•On a corner lot the flagpole must be a minimum of 20 ft. from •the side property line and closer to the house. The flag must be flown with proper flag etiquette, including •lights, and the flag must be removed when tattered or torn. The flag must be raised/lowered for appropriate holidays/events•The flagpole cannot be at the curb or near the sidewalk•The flagpole cannot be on the grassy area between 2 lots•The flagpole cannot be placed on the “eyebrow” of a cul-de-sac •lot. Lots 80 ft. and larger, placement will be determined on an as requested basis. The flagpole cannot exceed 20 ft. tall.•The flagpole cannot be located on any common area, Restricted •Reserves or other community property, including cu-del-sacs, unless installed by the HOA. Poles must be made of aluminum, fiberglass or steel and must •be concreted into the ground for safety. To determine the size flag to fly on an in-ground pole, the rule of •thumb is that the length of the flag should be a quarter to a third of the height of the pole. For example a 20ft. pole can be flying a 3 x 5 ft. to a 4 x 6 ft. size flag depending on local wind loads. The flag or hardware cannot be placed on a wood or concrete •fence.

BACKYARD:The flagpole cannot encroach any utility or drainage easements.•The flagpole must be a minimum of 10 ft. off the side property •lineThe size of the flag must be the appropriate size for the backyard •so it doesn't disturb neighbors or hang onto neighboring property alongside or behind.On a corner lot the flagpole must be a minimum of 20 ft. off •the street side of the property. The flag or hardware cannot be placed on a wood or concrete •fence

News You Can UseAMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION’S

NORTHWEST HARRIS COUNTY HEART WALK The American Heart Association will hold its annual Heart Walk for the Northwest Harris County area on Saturday, October 22, 2011 at Lone Star College in CyFair. This fun, family-friendly event promotes physical activity as part of a heart-healthy lifestyle, and raises funds for research and programs to fight heart disease and stroke - our nation’s number one and number three killers. Each year, nearly 865,000 Americans die from some type of cardiovascular disease – more than the next four leading causes of death combined. But we can make that change! This fun-filled non-competitive 5k walk will include approximately 2,000 local residents and 30 businesses and organizations from the Northwest Harris County area
