HOA Meeting Wrap-up
By Plum Creek HOA
Plum Creek’s Annual
Membership meeting was held on
October 23, 2006 at the PAC. A
quorum was met by a combination
of residents in attendance
(70 homeowners, 45 Proxies)
and Benchmark Development
(representing 250 lots/votes).
Association President David
Mahn called the meeting to order,
made welcoming comments and
introduced Vice-President Peter
French who facilitated the meeting.
We’ve put together a little synopsis
of happenings for those who are
interested.
First, Peter French went
over some of the neighborhood’s
2006 highlights. A few of the major
highlights follow. In 2006 Plum
Creek was selected as the “New

Beginning the week of December

will begin judging the holiday lights
of Plum Creek. With four categories,
everyone has the opportunity to get
into the spirit of the season.
Our first category is Traditional.
Traditional includes the simpler
designs of house trimming and lots
of greenery. It’s the classic winter
wonderland and Christmas of old.
Next, we encounter the Religious
category, which embraces all major
religious holidays. These holidays
include Christmas, Hanukkah,
Kwanzaa, and more.

Negley Elementary PTA Update
By Melissa Gurley Foley, Historian,
Negley PTA
With the excitement of the new
school also comes the enthusiasm
of the newly formed Negley Parent
Teacher Association (PTA)! The
Negley PTA was formed at the
end of last school year by some
dedicated and determined parents.
The PTA is up and running and
has an Executive Board as well
as chairpersons for numerous
committees. The PTA aspires
to involve parents, teachers and
community members to better educate
the children.
The PTA wants say a huge “Thank
You” to the much needed community
support that has already been given:
•
•
2
Peter French and David Mahn
with Plum Creek Developers
(Benchmark Development)
donated $500 and pledged an
additional $600 of support
Jane Terrell with Rocking Horse
Academy donated $550 to
purchase the safety equipment
for the school (pictured)
•
Rory Buckner, Owner/Manager
of the Kyle Domino’s Pizza
donated $500 for 5th grade
scholarships to the Outdoor
Learning Center
•
Beth Smith, Justice of the
Peace in Kyle, gave $100 to
purchase additional safety
equipment for the school
•
Larsen’s Black Belt Academy
donated $50 of support
Thanks to this type of support from
these committed community members
and businesses, the PTA has
enough funds to start off the year
in a positive way. A lot of planning
and effort has gone into setting
up the PTA in order to support the
students and staff at Negley. Thank
you all that were mentioned here
and thank you to those of you not
mentioned that have volunteered
your precious time. It is greatly
appreciated.
The first Negley PTA general
meeting was held on September
14th at the school. The first PTA
catalog fundraiser was held Sept. 29-Oct.
13. Thanks you for supporting all of the
kids.
Support in the form of monetary
donations as well as volunteering is
encouraged and very much appreciated.
If you have any questions or want to
inquire about showing your support
for the Negley PTA please contact the
PTA President, Nancy Herrington at

A Note From Your Principal
By Will Webber
Our Community
Coming together
“It’s hard to imagine a time without
them.” This is how most parents feel
about their children. Your children
become an integral part of the life of the
family and it is hard to imagine a time
without your children. What was life like then? In a similar way it is
hard to imagine a time without
Negley Elementary. Our community has pulled together and
our school is an integral part of that community. There is so much
going on all the time.
Veteran’s Day has long been an importance observance for
me. I grew up with a father and three uncles who shared tales of
their service during ‘the Big One’. I believe it is important to note
that the holiday is centered on the cessation of fighting. On the
11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month fighting stopped and
our soldiers who defended freedom for us all celebrated the end of
war – specifically the “Great War”. We have set aside that day to
remember the end of that war and to honor all of the soldiers who
have defended our freedom throughout the years in times of war
and in times of peace.
Our PTA Holiday Market was organized to provide a shopping
extravaganza for our community. This event reminds me a bit of the
world famous Armadillo Christmas Bazaar. I remember the Armadillo
World Headquarters of long ago and its holiday offshoot was often
a part of my holiday traditions. The PTA works hard to bring our
community together to celebrate learning and promote community
events. Thank you PTA.
Hays CISD has a tradition of serving a Thanksgiving meal
during the month of November. The Food Service Department
provides a Thanksgiving meal with ‘all the trimmings’ and invites our
community to join the students for lunch on those days. This event
has grown to a two day celebration due to its popularity.
Children’s Book Week celebrates reading and the wonder that
books bring to the lives of our children. This year we have had a
range of activities throughout the week designed to promote reading
for fun, pleasure and information. Reading enriches all of our lives
and is a gift we would like for all of our children to enjoy throughout
their lives.
The Thanksgiving Holidays are past us and Winter Festivities
are here again. This is an exciting and busy time of year for us and
for our children. It is important to combine the excitement of the
season with enthusiasm for learning and activities that help children
make connections in every aspect of their lives. Thank you all for
being a part of the Negley community of learners.

Decrease Global Warming, Trim Your Winter
Wasteline, and Have a Fantastic Holiday!
By Anna Madrona
With a little advance planning this year
you can cut down on the extra chores
the holidays always seem to entail,
save money, reduce stress, conserve
resources, and teach your children good
long-term habits for living a little lighter on
the earth. Let’s take a look at a few areas
where some thoughtfulness and creativity
might pay off.
Paper: This year think “Reduced,
Recycled, Reusable”
Are you checking your list twice, or three
times to make sure you’re giving your
recipients items or experiences they truly
want? Do they even want more stuff?
Would Junior be happy with just the new
bicycle and a few fun stocking stuffers?
Would Uncle Joe be thrilled with his
favorite nephew treating him to a Spurs
game? Hint to the guys: just about any
woman over the age of 18 would love
a spa treatment
or massage gift
certificate.
Still sending out Christmas cards? Like
many of us, don’t you have leftovers from
several years squirreled away that can
potentially save having to buy a third or
fourth box, or indeed, any at all? And
when was the last time you updated your
Christmas card list? Are you still sending
cards to people you haven’t heard from
in years? Sending fewer cards saves
money, time, and resources.
We set expectations
with family and loved
ones early, and
breaking the cycle of
expecting more and
more by agreeing
to cut down on the
excess has enormous payoffs for your
time, energy, and your children’s sense of
entitlement.
For those you are sending or handing
out at work or school, are you buying
recycled cards and/or
envelopes? Are you
recycling this year’s crop
of received cards into
postcards or gift tags for
next year? If your family is
online, there are probably
people on your list who
would be just as delighted
with an e-card containing the latest family
photo and your greetings.
Do you really need another set of lights
for the trees in front of your house? Do
you need even more
decorations for the tree?
Why not save a tank of
gas and use the hours
diverted from shopping
to string cranberries,
raisins and popcorn into
garlands for your indoor
AND outdoor trees. This
is a great family activity or a way to keep
the kids quiet on a rainy afternoon. Make
sure you’ll have a few dry days before
stringing the garland outside. Then watch
from the window as the tree comes to life
with delighted birds and squirrels. When
it comes time to take down the tree, leave
the garland on your indoor natural tree,
and move the tree out into the back yard
and prop against the garage or back
fence for a few days before recycling. The
animals will enjoy the decorations on the
“second life” of your tree.
Do you really need to buy several rolls
of wrapping paper this year? How much
time (and money over the long-run)
would you save if you used reusable
pre-decorated bags and boxes? Are
you wrapping over-sized items when a
large and colorful bow will suffice? What
about gift cards that come in their own
designed envelopes or folders? There are
dozens of ways to save time, money and
resources while keeping gift anticipation
alive.
Stuff: Take what you need and leave the
rest.
8
Power consumption: Timing is
everything.
Competing with your neighbor for the
brightest yard on the block? Remember,
smaller bulbs use less energy. And why
leave the twinkling lights on all night
when no one will see them anyway. A
simple, inexpensive timer can be used to
illuminate and darken the lights at your
chosen hours.
Plan your shopping trips carefully. Can
you take care of some of your shopping
over lunch hours? Do you really need to
drive to Austin’s malls every weekend, or
can you find suitable
items closer to home
in Buda, San Marcos,
or even our new
Southpark Meadows?
Every tank of gas
you save helps cut
down on greenhouse
gas emissions; sitting
in traffic robs you of
precious time and
energy you could spend otherwise in
enjoying the holiday season.
What sounds more appealing for eight
hours on a Saturday: sitting in a traffic jam
on MoPac on your way to Barton Creek
Mall, waiting 25 minutes through 8 traffic
light signals, the scent of auto exhaust
filling your car, having to park 1⁄2 mile
from the stores at the farthest reaches
of the parking lot, and finding yourself
elbow to elbow with thousands of irritable
people who’ve experienced the same
thing, while combing over picked through
merchandise? Or a quick trip south to San
Marcos, strolling through the charming
downtown shops near the square, lunching
at a local café, hitting a few big box stores
on the edge of town, returning home and
stringing popcorn and cranberries (see
above) while listening to your favorite
holiday tunes, the scent of the spiced cider
warming on the stove wafting through the
house? I choose Door # 2!
May your holidays be relaxed, thrifty, and
light on the earth!

like to share about de-stressing,
saving resources, and spending less
during the holidays? Share them

asked for nomination from the floor and
Meghan Rodgers was nominated and
was given the floor to introduce herself.
A point of order was raised
concerning the collection of ballots prior
to the call for vote. Although the point of
order was rescinded, the board decided
to disqualify the previous ballots, reissue
and revote. The election resulted in the
re-election of Dave Mahn
A motion was made and
seconded to expand the board from three
to five. However it was pointed out that
Declaration of Covenants, Conditions,
and Restrictions (DCCR’s) state that
any motion of this nature must be on
the Annual Meeting agenda prior to the
meeting. The motion was amended for
this to be on the agenda for the 2007
meeting.
A motion was made for the HOA
financials to be provided to residents
homes prior to the meeting and it was
decided that the financials will be posted
online at the HOA website prior to the
meeting.
Motions we’re also made to hold
the next Annual Meeting on a Saturday
and maybe serve BBQ. The motion
passed (although the BBQ idea was
shelved by residents) and the board took
the idea under advisement.
A motion was also made for
people on the board to be a resident
homeowner, and for people on the board
to have the home they own in Plum
Creek as their primary residency. This
motion did not pass.
After the motions were closed,
and although the meeting was running
long, the floor was opened to the
residents who had signed up to speak
before the meeting. Fifteen residents
addressed those in attendance. Concerns
were noted.
During the course of the
five-and-a-half-hour meeting, it was
mentioned by the board that the annual
meeting isn’t the only time people can
air their concerns. Those with ideas or
concerns about our neighborhood are
invited to contact Property Manager,
David Brown ([email protected]
om or 512-262-1140) during the year.

At The Fence: Good News From Great Neighbors
Christmas Tree Recycling
Plum Creek residents have two great
options for extending the life and
usefulness of natural Christmas trees
this year. For the organized folks who
like to have the decorations down before
New Yearʼs, you will be able to drop your
tinsel-free tree at Kyleʼs Gregg-Clarke or
Steeplechase Parks starting December
26. The drop point at Gregg-Clarke Park,
the closest to Plum Creek, is on Gregg
Drive, next to the Post Office. For those
of you who enjoy your tree into January,
we have the added the option of dropping
your trees at Haupt Park in Plum Creek
from January 1 to 14. We hope to gather
enough trees to chip and use as mulch
in Haupt Park. A few whole trees may
be used as fish habitat in the lake, too.
Our goal is 250 trees! Remove all hooks,
tinsel, and decorations from your trees
before disposing of them and please
do not drop off trees outside the posted
dates.
