Last year H.E.B. selected Jaycee Park to receive one of their water playgrounds (a $250,000 donation).  Construction started on Valentines Day 2011 and all is finished except for some final details.  So now it’s time to bring your family and friends out to Jaycee Park on Saturday May 21st at 10am for a celebration sponsored by H.E.B.!  The firefighters and their fire engine are also scheduled to be at the party.

At past H.E.B. Water Playground grand openings, they have had ice cream, refreshments,  their mascot, H-E-Buddy, and a visit from Scott McClelland, President of HEB Houston.

Please see the attached invitation. All are welcome, so feel free to forward to all your family and friends.

Come and say hello to your neighbors. Each month containing 5 Fridays we host a meet and greet at our home for all Lazybrook residents on the 5th Friday of the month.

In the 1960’s when our neighborhood began, impromptu social gatherings were the norm. Families got together for no reason other than saying hey and catching up. The Hooper House driveway was active most Fridays. 50 years later we are in a fast paced world and we have to actively seek our neighbor’s company. The Hooper House is now our home and we too love to visit with our neighbors. This past gatherings have been full and fun. We have some very colorful folks in Lazybrook. If you aren’t coming you are missed. Come help us get to know the new neighbors, visit with the original neighbors and hear about what’s up on the different blocks.

Who: Lazybrook Residents and families
What: Dinner by Richard Cade & Shane Davis

This public town hall meeting is open to all Houstonians! The City of Houston has set up a web page detailing information regarding the redistricting process. Please check back frequently, as it will be updated as new information becomes available. Vietnamese and Spanish language versions of the site are also available.
