Due to the Nov. flooding our Nov. meeting was held at the KW/FC Fire Station. We regret if anyone missed the meeting due to location change. Councilman Rob Todd was unable to attend but he sent representation from City Hall. The following gentlemen were present: Charles Alien (Houston Public Works), John Randolph (Harris County Flood Control), Thos. Buchanan (Houston Solid Waste), Roger Whitney (Waste water operations), Burton Johnson (Harris County Flood Control), Mike Aspan and Bobby Rivers (Health Dept), Clay Haynes (Harris County Flood Control), Corina G. Love (City of Houston EM), and A. Garcia(HPD). All speakers were very well informed regarding problems associated with the flooding and possible buy-outs. I have the phone numbers. Ben Neiman made arrangements for a qualified "Disaster Co." to clean and disinfect both the Community Center and Bathhouse at the pool. Bids will be taken to repair kitchen cabinets, some sheet-rock in the rest rooms, painting restrooms, small meeting room, and Bathhouse. The COMMUNITY CENTER is available for renting! Thanks Ben, for a job well done!
Anyone wishing to see any improvements in the community please put it in
writing: name, address, and phone number etc. that I may take it to the
Board for discussion. This includes the sidewalks, entry signs into Forest
Cove, parking arrangements at the Community Center. The Jan. meeting speaker
is to be George Bravenec, C. of H. sidewalk co-ordinator. If you have any
comments or suggestions for improvements in the community, please call me
at (281) 358-2218 or drop off written comments in the mailbox by my front
door.

Judy Petrovich from Carriage House presented a program on Christmas Decorations and how to make them. Of course they are easy if you don't have four thumbs! Thanksgiving baskets were discussed and delivery plans made. The Christmas Party will be at Yvonne Stott's home, 1207 Masters Way at 11:30 AM. The Hostesses provide the Deserts and everyone is to bring a covered dish and money for the Christmas gifts for the needy families. We will have a Chinese exchange of Christmas related gifts. Gay has requested the need for any fabrics and ribbon not being used to bring to the party as they are needed for on going projects for spring plant sale. Yards of the Month will be judged Dec. 14th. Good Luck to all of you "honey-doers"!

It's December and you probably haven't thought much about the Fightin' Frogs since July. The 1999 board is making plans for another great season. The 1999 swim team officers are as follows:
President: Kurt Hilarides
Vice President: Susan Ecoff
Secretary: Deb Prestifillipo
Treasurer: Kari Floyd
At Large Members: Rick and Nancy Lynch
Lynette Mockbee
Paula Safarik
The board has recommended that a coaching committee, an improvements
committee, an officials committee, and a legal committee be formed to take
care of off season projects. If you are interested in working on any of
these committees, please give Susan Ecoff a call at 359-0549. The 1999 operating
budget has been approved. We hope to have coaches hired in December. Specific
dates and teams in our division will be announced in January by NWAL. This
information will be in your February Beacon. Please continue to use your
Randalls Share Card (#6604). Our first check from Randalls was approximately
$40.
There has been some discussion that the City of Houston is considering the extension of Woodland Hills Drive to Hamblen Road. It is the feeling of the board that the extension would not be in the best interests of Forest Cove. The increased traffic and speeds would endanger the residents and hinder the traffic flow entering Hamblen Road from side streets. If you are opposed to this potential extension, please write to Councilman Robb Todd and send a copy to the FCPOA Board of Directors.
The July 4th BBQ is a long-standing tradition that is important to our community In previous years, this was handled by the F.C. Volunteer Fire Department as a fund raiser, and a very good one at that. It can also be a very good fund-raiser for our Community Association, but in order to do that we must prepare it ourselves and not have it catered. We are looking for anyone interested in helping prepare "The BBQ for 1999". If you can help in anyway, plan, provide freezer space, cook, prepare, set-up, serve, clean-up or help in another capacity, please contact Steve Atchison at home, (281-358-7648) work (281-590-9400) or e-mail at jsa1954@netscape.net. We will try to have an organizational meeting early in "99", but need to hear from you ASAP.
