Lazybrook Civic Club
HPD is planning on holding a Citizens on Patrol training class, on Monday August 20th, for anyone that is interested in becoming a patroller for Lazybrook. I know many neighbors have expressed interest in the past and this is a great chance to get certified and help our city and our neighborhood.
Hello Neighbors, I believe some of you have heard from the November Lazybrook Civic Club meeting that my family business is relocating to Conroe TX.
I’ve really enjoyed working with LCC but my 1 hour and 15 minute commute each way starting March will be too hard for me. The 1st lady is retiring this Spring and he wants to go to the lake with his retired Harley buddies. My son lives in Conroe. My daughter is up at SHSU. My extended family is all around the lake. Moving is the only real option for my family.
That being said, the Executive Board and the many committees have spent the past few years organizing our civic club to be very efficient for the volunteers. Each LCC Committee Chair has a clear understanding of their functions and have been very organized so as not to stress out any one volunteer with too many monthly duties. I want to thank each of the Committee Chairs and their volunteers for their help.
The President of Lazybrook Civic Club has a very clear job. With the support of the Executive Board and the committees the job is very easy to perform. We are seeking a civic minded neighbor to step up and take on the Presidency. The position has two main jobs, answer questions of the Committee Chairs and run Bimonthly meetings (6 per year) off an agenda our past President Richard Akin handed down to me. I am willing to stay on to help with the transition and train my replacement until March 2012. I will always be available by cell phone or to help our new volunteer run meetings during 2012. Consider taking on this prestigious position for our neighborhood. Please contact myself at president@lazybrook.org or Richard Akin, LCC VP. at president@lazybrook.org

Patrolling is as easy as driving a car or riding a bike through the neighborhood with a cell phone and calling in any suspicious persons or activities. We will train you, the hours are flexible to fit any schedule, and you are reimbursed for the cost of gas. Please email security@lazybrook.org to let me know if you are interested.

Cayce and Glenn Hatcher’s home at 2106 Seamist is the yard of the month for September. Their neighbor, Vennie Wolf, nominated them saying that their yard is always “top notch” and noting the beautiful beds of color at all times. (No easy task in this heat and drought!)
Indeed, the Hatchers yard features lush ground cover accented by vinca in a variety of hues. Terraced stonework and a pair of trees frame the front walk and a beautiful custom wood gate accents the drive.
