Summer Coffee Klatch
The June Coffee Klatch was held on Friday June 9th at the newly remodeled home of Annette and Tim Rivera. Not only is their home beautiful, but the landscape is outstanding. In spite of the rain, over 25 neighbors attended and enjoyed the delicious food Tim prepared and lots of interesting conversations. A few first timers attended and were warmly welcomed.
Our Northwest police officers were not able to attend because of their own Coffee with Cops event. They assured us that they will try to make our next Coffee Klatch.
Our next Coffee Klatch will be in October at the home of Bernie and Maureen Clements – date to be announced later.
Hope to see you in October.

It’s My Park Day
Thank you, Creek Leaders, Flower Bed Leaders, and all volunteers for your hard work last Saturday morning. Creek Leaders – Gary, Vince and Doug – worked with volunteers to clean up debris from the creek, while Joan and Jan worked on the Alta Vista flower beds. Sandy took photos of the activity. And extra special thanks goes to Kiki for organizing us all and Ron for delivering needed supplies. It was gratifying to see neighbors, even children, get together to maintain the park and creek and to improve the flower beds.

Texas Native Trees
April 2017.
Texas Native Trees have long provided vital benefits to wildlife – nectar, forage, and habitat – that are in shrinking supply as both rural and urban communities expand. In Northaven Park, however, viewing these Texas Natives is as easy as a walk in the park, or along the Joe’s Creek Greenbelt.
While some varieties may not be the first choice for planting in residential yards, we can still appreciate their long and unique history, distinctive properties and diverse appearances.
Here then is an easy (too easy!) quiz. Match the photos and the tree names to the descriptions.
Planting a tree with care and proper technique is always a good idea, offering a sense of accomplishment for a job well done in the present, and the expectation of aesthetic and other benefits for generations to come. Earth Day can be every day – planting a tree remains one of the best ways to take positive action for the environment. For an excellent guide to suitable varieties, see the tree selector at Texas Tree Planting. Input variables such as soil type, space available, fall color, and the selector can yield several recommended trees to match your requirements. For planting guidelines, see “Tree Planting” under the library tab at Dirtdoctor.com.
