Fall is in the air and change is right behind it. For
the past two years, we have sponsored Polo on
the Midway and this year we committed to spon­
sor the 380Guide Community Challenge Cup,
which is part of Polo on the Midway. This event
helps to raise money for Bryan’s House. During
our sponsorship, we found out how exciting Polo
can be. While meeting with Dena and Vaughn
Miller, we learned that Prestonwood Country
Club would be opening their third Country Club
right here in the corridor. The new facility will
be centrally located in Oak Point and offer Polo
instead of golf. We believe that this welcomed
addition to our community will help the corridor
continue to thrive. In September, we co-hosted
the First Annual Fiesta on 380 with our business
neighbors, Snyder Custom Homes, Jim and
Pam Bruner, Re/Max Real Estate, Kyle Lyons
Farmers Insurance Agent, Barron Law and Gina
Impressions. We had a fantastic community
turnout to this event. We expect to see even
more of our readers next year at our Fiesta.
Halloween and Fall Festivities are always an
exciting time of the year. We hope everyone can
find the youthful spirit to dress in there favorite
costume this Halloween. This Thanksgiving as
always, we are planning to see our family and
looking forward to visiting with everyone. Often
we get so busy that we do not realize how quickly
time passes. Enjoy your Fall Festivities and we
wish you all many reasons to be thankful.

R
ecently, while attending a Prosper Art and Music Festival
Committee Meeting, I had the pleasure of meeting Judy Rucker.
After Mrs. Rucker left, Becky Conklin, the Committee Chair
made a statement that “You have now met Prosper’s Icon.” Of course,
with that I had to know more, so Becky told me some of Mrs. Rucker’s
amazing accomplishments. Along with other things, this lovely woman
has an Elementary School named after her and the city of Prosper has a
day devoted to her.
Judy Rucker has the refinement and elegance of Grace Kelly. She truly
brightens the room with her presence. When you meet her, you would never
know all of her accomplishments because it is not her personality to tell and
she would never accept recognition with out commending all of the people
who assisted her. The Mayor of Prosper, Charles Niswanger said, “Judy
Rucker is an indispensable part of the community.” In 2005, he declared
October 11, Judy Rucker Day.
Mrs. Rucker was born in Roscoe, Texas where she grew up in as the youngest
of seven children. She graduated from
High School in 1949 and attended
McMurry University in Abilene . She
earned a BS in Education with a Minor
in History and Religion on May 26,
1953. A month later on June 26, 1953,
she married her College sweetheart
Lloyd Rucker. She taught fourth grade
from 1953 to 1955 then decided to stay
at home to raise their three daughters
for the next 10 years. She went back to teaching Elementary in San Angelo
where she received teacher of the year in 1978. Mr. and Mrs. Rucker raised
their young family in San Angelo and remained there until her husband
acquired a job with First State Bank in the City of Celina in 1983, where
they arrived as empty nesters.
When she settled into her new home in Celina, she decided to look for
a teaching position. That is when she found out about Prosper. The little
town just south of Celina had only one teaching position open and it was
a one-year contract. She applied for the position and got it. Mrs. Rucker
started her journey in the town of Prosper when Kindergarten through
12th grade were all in the same school building. There were about 250
students attending Prosper Independent School District and the town had
about 1500 residents. Prosper was still considered a farming community.
She had 36 students and her desk had to be out in the hall. “I have always
put my life in God’s hands and he has done marvelous things for me,”
says Judy Rucker. She taught Elementary age schoolchildren until
she received her Certification in Supervision and Mid Management in
1988. She originally intended to use
the certification to mentor teachers
because she owes her success to the
great mentors she had while teaching.
When she received her certificate from
Texas A&M, PISD asked her to be
the new elementary schools interim
principal. After she accepted her new
position, she was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. She did not let this slow
her down and continued living life to its fullest. This 17-year survivor is a
firm believer of yearly mammograms and encourages women everywhere
to act on early detection and get the necessary treatment. Mrs. Rucker
served as principal to Prosper Elementary School for 8 years before she
retired. In 1995, they dedicated the building as Prosper Elementary, and
then the school district dedicated the building to her by naming the facility
Judy Rucker Elementary School in 2005.
After Mrs. Rucker retired from PISD, the town asked her if she would
be interested in working with the Prosper
Economic Development Committee. She
accepted the position as Facilitator for
PEDC. She had several goals that she set
for herself including moving from a Town
Marshall to obtaining a Police Department.
She worked with Chief Kirk McFarlyn to
receive a $350,000 grant. They started
working on the grant in 1998 and completed
it in 2000. Her second accomplishment
was securing an Environmental Learning
Center for Prosper Elementary School so
that children can have hands on experience
with harvesting and planting in an outdoor
lab.
She also worked with a committee to organize a 100-year celebration for
the city of Prosper on October 19, 2002. She also worked with the Texas
Historical Society to obtain a Historical Marker for the city. On February
7, 2003, the city put up their Historical Marker on the South East corner of
Coleman and Broadway on the Post Office grounds. Mrs. Rucker assisted
with revitalizing the Down Town Christmas Tree Lighting program in
2003, which is now an anticipated family event for the town of Prosper.
After she retired from the PEDC in 2005, they asked her to take on the
reorganization of the Prosper Chamber of Commerce. She was already
involved in the project that started in 2004. The Prosper Chamber of
Commerce had their first meeting with five members. She retired from the
Chamber on September 13, 2008 with 149 active members and growing.
When asked if she planned to stay retired she replied with a smile “The
third time is the charm.”
Mrs. Rucker is not only a pillar of the Prosper community but also a 53-year
member of the United Methodist Women’s Group and serves as the local unit
President. She teaches Sunday school for the Mature Adults at the Prosper
United Methodist Church for the past five years. She has been an active
member in the church for over 53 years and a member of the Prosper location
since 1998. When she has time to herself, she is an avid reader of Historical
Fiction books. She also enjoys Crossword Puzzles and gardening. Now that
she is officially retired, she plans to spend time with her husband Lloyd and
her dog Missy who rules the house. Someday she would like to write her
memoirs with the title of “Mrs. Rucker Your Flag is Upside Down” because
on many occasions the sixth graders who where in charge of raising the flags
in the morning for the school would often raise the Texas flag upside down.
This would result in a call to her office. Each time the flag taken down and
they would hang it correctly. They plan to travel
to spend time with family and friends.
Mrs. Rucker shared that “I have been led by a
Divine presence; God has placed me where
I am supposed to be. I have not accomplished
anything alone. I have had wonderful people
supporting me including my husband, the school
board, the city. Every endeavor I have done has
been with the full support of others. I cannot take
credit for very much. I feel very humble.”
Hugs & Kisses for Denton Regional
Denton Regional Medical Center has added a new layer of
security in the Maternal Child Care and Pediatric Unit to help
ensure the safety of its youngest patients. The hospital recently
installed the Hugs and Kisses® Infant Protection System from
Xmark, to safeguard its infants and children from the threat of
abduction.
“Infant protection systems provide an effective additional
layer of security to guard against the abduction of infants,”
stated Toni Haddox, BS, MBA, RNC, the Administrative
Director of Women’s and Children’s Services at Denton
Regional. “The Hugs and Kisses® system has been configured
to operate in a number of ways to add multiple layers to our
infant security program.
Each infant wears a comfortable and unobtrusive Hugs tag
attached by the means of a soft tamper-proof strap around
his or her ankle. The computer console displays floor plans
of the unit showing monitored areas and doors. Alarms are
generated if the strap is cut or tampered with, if the infant is
moved to an unauthorized zone, or if the tag’s signal is no
longer detected. The system activates security cameras which
record activity at the door at the time of the alarm and one
minute prior to the alarm.
Hugs tags enroll automatically when placed on an infant and
are individually monitored. Each tag sends a status signal to
the main console to confirm its presence and functionality. If
a signal is not received within a designated period, an alarm
will be generated. The system performs automatic self-checks
on all components and advises staff of any problem.
“In the event of an attempted abduction, the Hugs system
will immediately inform security and our nursing staff as to
precisely where the alarm has occurred,” says Jayne Thomas,
RN, BSN, MBA, Denton Regional’s Chief Nursing Officer.
“This information is vital to ensuring a quick response in the
event of an abduction attempt.”

Denton
Regional
Medical Center also
implemented
the
Kisses® component of
the Hugs system which
provides
automatic
mother/infant
matching notification.
Each mother is given
a small tag (the Kisses
tag) that is bonded
with her infant’s Hugs tag at birth. From that point forward,
the tags remain bonded throughout their stay in the hospital.
Nurses are immediately alerted of a mismatch with an audible
indicator.
Denton Regional is dedicated to the safety and security of
all patients, especially newborns. The hospital has made
obstetrics and women’s health a priority, and is pleased to
be the only facility in Denton that has had every member of
the labor and delivery staff credentialed by the Association of
Women’s Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses (AWHONN)
in fetal monitoring. (AWHONN is the leading professional
association for nurses who specialize in the care of women
and newborns.)
The entire second floor is dedicated to Women’s Services,
complete with 9 elegant labor/deliver/recovery suites, 25 postpartum beds, a state-of the art nursery, and a sophisticated
infant security system. Specialty programs in the Women’s
and Children’s services include obstetrics, lactation support,
gynecology and pediatrics.
Scarecrow City at the
Aubrey Pumpkin Patch
-- Jodie Linton-Prickett
Why settle for a store bought pumpkin this year? Experience a local tradition at the Aubrey
Pumpkin Patch and pick a perfect pumpkin. When fall is the air, the pumpkins are ready for
picking. Make it an enjoyable day for the whole family by coming out to the farm, enjoying
harvest decorations, taking a hayride or just delighting in the tranquil countryside. Fetch
the kids, bring the grandparents and do not forget your camera to capture all the fun!
Our family started our Harvest tradition three years ago after moving into the area and we
always leave the farm delighted with our experience. The amount of time you spend at the
Aubrey Pumpkin Patch is up to you. You can spend as little as a half an hour meandering
through the pumpkins or pack a picnic lunch and make an afternoon of it.
You will find the celebrated Pumpkin Patch and Katie’s Country Market tucked away on
a curvy country road one mile southwest of downtown Aubrey at 736 Rock Hill Road.
When you arrive at the farm, you and your family can jump on board an old-time wagon
for a hayride that follows a trial as it rambles through part of the farm known this year
as Scarecrow City. At the end of your hayride you will arrive at the pumpkin patch, you
and your family will start the search for the perfect pumpkin. Everyone takes a pumpkin
home! After you pick your pumpkin, take it to your car and get your picnic lunch. Take
your lunch and your imagination over the footbridge into
Pumpkin Land, an imaginary realm where Pumpkin people
live. This is a fantastic photo opportunity and your child will
want plenty of pictures so be prepared! There are mazes to
run through and animals to pet along the way.
Katie’s Country Market is usually our last stop when we visit
because you cannot help but shop a little. You will find the
shop filled with Halloween novelties, many of them made
on the farm, and a variety of delicious fall treats, including
apple butter bread, pumpkin nut bread, and hot-spiced
apple cider. Myra Smith has been greeting us at her family’s
farm since our first visit. Katie’s Country Market is located
in a restored sheep barn built in 1953. The wood and bricks
used inside Katie’s are reclaimed and over 100 years old
providing a meaningful history.
Come join a procession of people gathering for activities,
mazes, hayrides, pumpkins and all around fun at Scarecrow
City. This is a fun place for the whole family, and a great
getaway for school groups, scout troops, birthday parties
and special events! Start a family tradition in this magical
placid place of days that have gone buy. For more information

More than Just
Another
When Texas
and the South
West collide
treasures
such
as
Longhorn Mosaics are
born. As with all canvases, Rhonda
Unnerstall’s canvas starts blank. It is bleached white
and waiting to be brought to life.. When you look at Rhonda
Unnerstall’s Longhorn mosaics, you can see all of the
intricate work that reawakens the majestic Longhorn. Her
rare style fills a unique niche in the art arena. Her mosaics are
evocatively beautiful and entrancing. More than likely when
you look at Rhonda’s Longhorns you are looking at something
truly unique; perhaps you have never seen anything quite
like it. As an Art Historian, I have been fortunate enough
to travel to numerous Galleries and Museums throughout
the United States and I have never encountered renderings
like Rhonda’s. Her Longhorns are inimitable. I am aware
of only one other artist who creates mosaics on the skulls
of Longhorns, the artist is in Alaska, but in my opinion, his
creations lack the refinement and artistry of Rhonda’s.
A bleached skull that once hung on the wall in her Family
Room provided the vision and inspiration that Rhonda needed
to get in touch with the her inner Artist. The more she looked
at the skull the more she wanted it to have color. Like any
creative person, status quo just will not do for Rhonda. So,
off the wall the skull came and the Longhorn Mosaic journey
begins. When you visit Rhonda’s
Studio you can see her progression
through the process of trial and
error. Her success comes not only
from her artistic ability but from her
willingness to experiment and take
risks. Rhonda, like most successful
artists, is always evolving. She is
always looking to improve upon her
technique and refine her style.
Rhonda caringly selects each
Longhorn skull that she adorns. The
skull must have a certain look and
quality. She prefers skulls with polished horns so that the
deep contrasting colors appear like marble on the surface
but she has worked on skulls with their horns still in their
natural state. Most of her skulls come from Mexico, where
www.380Guide.com
an elderly man hand selects and preps skulls of a superior
quality. Often, the owner of Lone Star Trading in Frisco will
help her select skulls or transport them back from Mexico for
her. Once the appropriate skull is selected Rhonda begins
the embellishment process. The once bleached white skull
is skillfully bejeweled with hand-selected stained glass,
artifacts, semi-precious stones and personal items. Rhonda’s
Longhorn Mosaics
are more than just
a pretty face, they
are
storytellers.
The narrative may
not be obvious at
first glance, but it is
there all the same.
The personal items
will tell the story
of each Longhorn.
The objects that
find their way into
the mosaics are usually the little treasures that we cannot
seem to part with but keep them hidden in the bottom of a
jewelry armoire or dresser drawer and rarely take them out to
visit. Rhonda brings them out of the darkness and presents
them in a very deliberate way in her Longhorns. Some of her
Longhorns contain pendants, silver hearts from a late best
friend’s silver belt, necklaces, family heirlooms, arrowheads
and Silver Dollars from a client’s birth year. The story,
mortared into the mosaic much like
an image woven into a tapestry.
Depending on the Longhorn the
anecdote is either Rhonda’s or one
of the people who commissioned the
art. The commitment and thought
put into each Longhorn makes each
creation timeless and one of a kind.
Her signature is found in way the
rabbit fur is traditionally wrapped
and braided in a Native American
style. The fur is always on the left
side when you look at the skull and
it is from Tandy Leather out of Ft. Worth and the Longhorn’s
tongue band is always wrapped in leather. “I would love for
people to look at skulls and never want to see them white
again,” said Rhonda.

Pretty Face
Rhonda was born in Albuquerque,
New Mexico where she grew up in an
inspired environment. The rich colors
and textures of New Mexico and the
influence of her mother, who until
retirement was an interior designer,
stimulated Rhonda’s creativity. She
moved to Texas at the age of twentyfour where she has resided for the
past 25 years. She lives on a beautiful ranch in Oak Point where she can
combine her love for family, animals, nature and her art harmoniously.
However, it was not until recently that she tapped into her artistic ability.
Prior to her Longhorn endeavor her creative outlet was helping out at her
son’s school assisting as needed with creating bulletin boards and other
homeroom mom activities. She started her life in Texas as an assistant to
a Veterinarian and from there started her own dog grooming business that
was amazingly successful. Later she met and married her husband who is
a Veterinarian that specializes in working on large animals. Her son, Kevin,
now 15, is the Junior Varsity Quarter Back for Legacy Christian Academy’s
Football team. The family raise and race Thoroughbred Horses on their
ranch and enjoy spending time at their cabin on the Red River. The family
loves to be outdoors, hiking and horse riding. Rhonda is often inspired by
nature and incorporates her findings into her art.
Rhonda is always creating a new design but she also works on
commissioned pieces at your request. Her Longhorn Mosaics start at
$500.00.

With the world population constantly expanding, our natural resources have become more of a privilege rather than
a right. The world has a fixed amount of these resources, and some are already depleted. We have great intentions of
leaving a perfect world behind for our children and grandchildren, but in order to do so we must make a change in our
everyday lives. Throwing away items that could be recycled diminishes energy, water and other natural resources. The
more we throw away, the more space we are taking up in landfills. When we don’t carpool we are putting more pollutants
into the air. There are many ways to work toward saving our planet, and 380Guide and 380News have taken a major step
in that direction.
Your source for news and events in the 380 corridor has switched to a UV printing process. This process uses a special
formula of ink that is cured by UV lamps allowing a cold web press to print quality process color. UV process printing does
not utilize heaters to dry the ink, so it is more energy efficient. Also, the press does not use solvents, so there are no VOCs
(volatile organic compounds) released into the atmosphere, resulting in a better environment for all of us. The printer also
recycles all unused rolls of paper after printing. For every ton of paper that is recycled 7,000 gallons of water, 380 gallons
of oil, and enough electricity to power an average house for six months is saved.
Traditional print technologies generate high energy costs due to the extensive use of ovens and dryers required to pull
water and solvents out of the inks. UV process printing does not require heaters or dryers, using a fraction of the energy
needed for traditional heat set. It is environmentally friendly, energy efficient and produces rich, vibrant colors.
380Guide and 380News have also chosen to office in a building that is powered by wind energy. The Skystream 3.7
wind turbine provides 40%-100% of the small business’ energy needs. This is a free, non-polluting and endless supply of
energy.
We want to not only provide you with the latest news and events in your area, but we want to do our part in saving the
planet’s natural resources. Recycling and minimizing pollutants are important to us, and we hope you take steps in your
everyday life to make the world a little greener.

Denton Regional Offers New Weight Loss Program
for Breast Cancer Survivors
Mary Martinez endured surgery, chemotherapy and a month of
radiation treatments to survive breast cancer. But, more than a year
after her initial diagnosis, medications prescribed now cause her to
gain weight---sometimes several pounds in a day.
The chance of a woman having invasive breast cancer during her
life is about 1 in 8, according to new statistics from the American
Cancer Society. Right now, there are about 2.5 million breast cancer
survivors.
So, she is fighting back again. This time, it’s with the assistance and
encouragement of Denton Regional Medical Center’s new The Pink
Essentials program for breast cancer survivors of all ages.
Martinez has lost a few pounds since joining The Pink Essentials.
More importantly, she’s gained strong relationships with other
cancer survivors.
Part support group and part weight management program, The Pink
Essentials is offered exclusively by Denton Regional’s registered
dietitians and focuses on teaching breast cancer survivors proper
nutrition, lifestyle modifications and exercises specifically tailored
to help them regain strength and become healthier. Since The Pink
Essentials was introduced quietly in mid-April, membership has
grown to 35 survivors and participants come from as far away as
Irving to attend. Meetings, offered at no charge, are at 5:30 p.m.
Tuesdays in the Education Building on Denton Regional’s campus
at 3535 S. I-35 East.
“The support and encouragement you receive from the women in
the group helps you keep going and keeps you focused on doing
something good for yourself,” Martinez said. “Going to Pink
Essentials meetings every week is a chance to be with people who
understand what you’ve been through.”
Members range from those just out of treatment to 20-year survivors.
Most are women between the ages of 40 and 80.
The first members of The Pink Essentials came from fliers distributed
by Texas Oncology in Denton and through the assistance of Judy
Jeanes, chairperson for the Denton Area Chapter of the American
Cancer Society and the director of cancer services at Denton
Regional. However, in the last few weeks, other cancer survivors
have found the program via word of mouth from those in other
cancer support groups.
“Many breast cancer survivors who take a drug known as tamoxifen
complain about gaining weight while on this drug sometimes 20
pounds or more,” said Brandi Matous, director of food and nutrition
services at Denton Regional. “In fact, many women talk about
suffering from ravenous appetites, a lack of energy, weight gain and
difficulty maintaining a healthy weight.
If the group’s membership continues to grow, Matous said another
session may be added.
“Our meetings last about 30 minutes or so, and each participant
is weighed and their successes are acknowledged. Then, we offer
an education program focusing on nutrition, behavioral strategies,
stress management and fitness.”
“I don’t eat anything with flour at all, and that’s all I used to eat,”
Roberts said. “I’ve cut down on how much processed food I eat,”
Roberts said.
Denton Regional stresses portion control and understanding
proper serving sizes. Recent sessions have included discussions
about what to look for when choosing fruits and vegetables, hunger
triggers, goal setting and upper body exercises.
Each cancer survivor’s recommended diet is based on her own
caloric needs for weight loss or weight gain, her height and her
individual nutritional needs.
“Typically, breast cancer survivors need more fruits and vegetables
because that’s where all the good antioxidants, vitamins and minerals
are,” Matous said. “We encourage them to eat a well-balanced diet
with more of an emphasis on fruits and vegetables.”
The Pink Essentials members tend to lose weight slower than on
other programs, but the goal is to ensure they are losing weight
sensibly and for the long-term, Matous said. In the first eight weeks,
participants lost 123 pounds total and, as of August 19, an additional
84 pounds had been lost. “You have to eat to lose weight,” Matous
said. “If you starve yourself, your body will go into starvation mode.
In addition, we hope to avoid cancer recurrence and the research
shows that maintaining a healthy weight and lifestyle helps decrease
that dramatically.”
Nancy Roberts, a 19-year breast cancer survivor, said what she’s
learned at the meetings helped her lose six pounds the first month
and helps her continue to lose weight.
She’s also begun working out and takes advice from Lauren J.
Monroe, a local Stott Pilates instructor and Matous’ sister, who
volunteers her time to The Pink Essentials. For those who are not
used to working out, small lifestyle changes, such as parking cars
a little farther away when shopping, taking the stairs when possible
and walking to the mailbox, are suggested to be tried first.
“Everyone is different and we aren’t going to encourage anything
that a patient’s doctor has not approved. Everyone can do something
that will help her fitness needs,” Matous said. “A breast cancer
survivor not only can be a survivor, but they can also be healthy
survivors.”

Dallas’ own Justin Leonard and Tripp Davis, one of the leading golf architects in the United States, detailed plans for the New Course
at The Tribute to various media and development officials.
Leonard, Davis, Wynne/Jackson and Matthews Southwest, two Dallas-based residential and commercial development companies broke
ground in February on the second Tribute golf course.
Leonard, who is currently ranked 23rd on the Official PGA Tour World rankings, and who won the British Open at Royal Troon at St.
Andrews in 1997, has partnered with Davis to create a classic course design that highlights the architecture of the first golf courses in
America to North Texas, and one that will mirror the famous links he knows so well.
“The original Tribute is a Scottish-type course and with my success playing in Britain, when I won the open championship in ’97 it is
very special to me,” Leonard said. “I played a lot of the courses over there and seeing such an accurate rendition of the holes close to
home is nice. A lot of people will not be able to play in Scotland but they can experience it (here) at Tribute.”
The theme of the New Course will be complimentary of the current Old Course at The Tribute but will
reflect courses similar to Shinnecock and Maidstone (of Long Island, New York). The bunkers will be
larger, more flowing and surrounded by native grasses. The overall topography will be increasingly
dramatic with more elevations and trees. The course’s main characteristics will be the softness of greens,
flowing bunkers and water features and frontages.
“We’re going to make it look like it’s been there for a 100 years,” Davis added. “There are going to
be eight holes on the water and you’ll be able to see water from all but four holes. A number of golf
architecture critics believe this will be another highly rated course.”
Leonard was hoping for the opportunity to design a course in Dallas but never felt the time was right
until he met with Davis about the New Course at The Tribute.
“I knew Tripp when he was playing golf for OU (University of Oklahoma),” he added. “I knew at some
point that I wanted to test the design waters, but I also wanted to wait for the right person and the right
project. I turned down several opportunities until Tripp came along. It was kind of natural with me being
from Dallas and with Tripp’s experience on designing quality courses.”
Since their initial meeting in the fall of 2005, Leonard and Davis have provided their unique perspectives on course strategy, green placement
and overall playability. With Leonard’s experience of playing the world’s finest courses and Davis’ intricate knowledge of layout and design,
the New Course at The Tribute is expected to be playable for the average golfer but still demanding for good amateurs and professionals.
“There really isn’t a course like the Tribute now,” added Leonard. “The New Course will only enhance that. We’re building on the great
reputation of the Old Course.”

Speeding To Help
TMS Pays Tribute to More Than 60 Military Personnel in Opening Community Outreach Event
Texas Motor Speedway kicked off its “Speeding to Help”
community outreach program in patriotic fashion Tuesday, Sept 2,
2008 as “The Great American Speedway!” provided some racing
thrills for more than 60 military personnel.
Texas Motor Speedway partnered with the United Service
Organizations of Dallas/Fort/Worth to provide a break for the men
and women defending out freedom with Team Texas two-seater,
stock-car rides in excess of 150 miles per hour around the 1.5 mile,
high-banked oval.
“The USO was so thrilled when Texas Motor Speedway reached out
to us and asked us to partner with Team Texas Driving Experience
to provide this opportunity for our troops,” USO DFW Special
Event Coordinator Meagan Bergeron said. “This is absolutely a
unique opportunity. We were so excited just to be able to offer this
to the troops. It is a thrill of a lifetime for them. The mission of the
USO is to provide for the morale of the troops and this is certainly
doing that.”
“Every single one of them that has been climbing out of the cars
has been grinning ear to ear. This is a great opportunity to remind
them that the American public and organizations like TMS and
Team Texas are supportive and thankful for what they are doing.
These groups are really making the effort to reach out to them and
show them that support.”
Military members from the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and
National Guard were thanked by the entire TMS staff that waved
miniature American flags and shouted encouragement as they
walked through a special receiving line en route to Victory Lane
for a special photo opportunity with the U.S. Army stock car. They
also enjoyed lunch and were surprised with a special gift as Texas
Motor Speedway President Eddie Gossage presented each military
guest with two complimentary tickets to the Dickies 500 NASCAR
Sprint Cup Series race on Nov. 2.
“This is a wonderful opportunity for us to reward the men and
women that serve and protect our freedom,” Gossage said.
“Without the sacrifice and commitment of these individuals, we
wouldn’t be where we are today. We wanted to show them our
gratitude in some way and we hope they had a memorable time
today at ‘The Great American Speedway!”
A dozen Army soldiers from the USO’s Rest and Recuperation
Program, along with military personnel from Naval Air Station
Join Reserve Base in Fort Worth and Sheppard Air Force Base
in Wichita Falls, were among the 60-plus who participated in
Tuesday’s activities.
The event was a complete surprise to the soldiers in the USO “R &
R” program. The soldiers flew into Dallas/Fort Worth Airport from
various parts of the country en route to being deployed overseas
Tuesday afternoon, but time was made for them to take part in the
visit to the speedway.
“The USO in coordination with Texas Motor Speedway called
me up and said, ‘Hey, we have an opportunity for these service
members to participate in a NASCAR experience’ and I was all
for it,” Army Major Patrick Mcafee said. “It was just an incredible
experience. The guys out here just couldn’t believe they got the
opportunity to do such a neat event.”
One of those was Corporal Jaime Melendez of the U.S. Marines,
who was heading back to Iraq for his fourth tour of duty.
“This was awesome. This is the first time that anything like this has
ever happened for me, and I loved it and appreciated it,” Melendez
said. “It was so intense. I felt like I could just reach out and touch
the wall. It was awesome- I want to do it again.”
The visit by the USO of Dallas/Fort Worth was the first of four
events during the month of September that comprise the speedway’s
recently announced “Speeding To Help” employees for important
causes in the Metroplex during this month, continued on Tuesday,
Sept. 16 with a visit to the Children’s Hospital in Dallas. This event
was followed by the TMS staff working together with Habitat for
Humanity to frame a house in Fort Worth on Wednesday, Sept 24.
The final visit took place at the Ronald McDonald House of Fort
Worth on Monday, Sept 29.

Polo 101
By: Andrea Hikel
When you ask most people what they think of when they hear
the word “polo”, they would probably say a fashionable line
of clothing and a man named Ralph. Before I witnessed a polo
game, I have to admit my answer would have been the same.
After watching a polo match in Oak Point I realized there
is more to the word “polo” than Ralph could ever offer. The
game was amazing, but I still lacked the knowledge to fully
understand and enjoy the sport.
In order to fully enjoy polo you will need to know some history
behind the sport. Polo originated in China about 2,000 years
ago. The first recorded game took place in 600BC between
the Turkomans and Persians (the Turkomans won). It was
first played in the United States in 1876. It was introduced by
James Gordon Bennett, who had first seen the game played in
England. Bennett went on to become “The Father of American
Polo”, after organizing players, equipment, and Texas horses
to play the first game in the United States. The sport became
popular in New York and Newport, Rhode Island. As players
and teams developed, the sport was in need of a governing body.
This is when the United States Polo Association came about.
This organization planned games and created and enforced
rules. The sport attracted thousands of spectators, survived
the great depression and saw outstanding players come and
go with the years. Today, the sport is still thriving with skillful
players and is right around the corner in Oak Point, TX.
Now, how do you play the game? Polo teams consist of four
players each. The playing area is 300 yards long and 160 yards
wide (9 football fields). The goal posts that are positioned at
each end of the field are eight yards apart. A full game is six
periods or “chukkas”, similar to periods or quarters in other
sports. Each Chukka last seven minutes and near the end a
horn will blow once for thirty-second warning and twice to end
the chukka. Teams will change directions after every goal so
that the wind conditions will equally affect both teams. In polo
there are two umpires on the field at all times making sure
that the players obey the many rules designed to keep the sport
safe. A typical foul occurs when a player “crosses the line” of
another player, that is, a player who has the ball, has the rightof-way, and no other player may infringe upon it. The whistle
is blown when a foul occurs and play is stopped, at which time
the Umpires will award a penalty, or if they cannot agree,
refer to a “third-man” watching from the sideline. There are
intervals of four minutes between Chukkas to allow players
to switch horses, a fresh horse is needed for each chukka and
players will usually bring seven or eight horses to a game.
Halftime occurs after the third chukka and is fifteen minutes
long to allow for the famous “champagne divot stomp” as seen
in such movies as Pretty Woman. This is when spectators
are allowed on the field to stomp the horse divots down while
sipping champagne and mingling with the other spectators.
A polo player’s equipment consists of a helmet, long boots, knee
guards, gloves and a mallet. The mallet is made of bamboo and
is about 52 inches long. The pony’s gear consists of an English
saddle (no saddle horn!), double-reins, and leg bandages to
protect their lower legs and their tails are tied to keep them
out of the way. The polo ball is made of a unique hard plastic
material and is about the same size as a baseball.
Two exciting aspects of the game are the “bump” and the
“hook.” Any player may bump another player and force him
off the ball so long as he is riding parallel and at the same
speed as the other player. A player may also hook the mallet
of any player who is swinging at the ball in order to stop him
from hitting it.
Polo is an exciting sport with skillful players, beautiful horses
and a fun and relaxing atmosphere. Join us every Saturday at
Prestonwood Polo Club in Oak Point. The matches are open
to public.

The Perfect Shot for Charity
By: Ann Harmon
ince 1968 Prestonwood Country Club has provided its
members with lush fairways, breathtaking scenery, tennis
courts, swimming pools and casual dining rooms to entertain
friends and family. The Creek Clubhouse in Dallas, located on
Preston Road just north of Arapaho, was the first to open. Twenty
years later in 1988, Prestonwood followed the Dallas growth path
and went north by adding the Hills Clubhouse in the exclusive Hills
of Prestonwood development in West Plano. Now 20 years later,
Prestonwood again moves north with a third clubhouse planned for
Oak Point, Texas, located north of Plano and west of Frisco. Not only
will the clubhouse have the same amenities as the other two, but it
will be located on the pristine land of the previous Oak Point Polo
Farms overlooking 100
acres of lush polo fields,
trees and lakes. The
plans include a luxury
equestrian community
with thirty-five 1 acres
home lots, horse bridal
paths, 100-stall state-ofthe-art horse barn and
an indoor and outdoor
arena. The Country Club
completion is scheduled
for late 2009 with 1 acre
home lots ready in the
Spring. There will no
other country club like it
in the Dallas/Fort Worth
area. In the meantime,
the polo facility is up
and running, with games
open to the public every
Saturday. The polo field is situated with the sun to your back and
an elevated viewing area, with a lovely view of gorgeous trees and
lakes on the far side. Tailgate or sit under the tent, BYOB and picnic
or purchase food and drinks from WISH catering. Prestonwood
Polo Club & Country Club in Oak Point, TX not only offers some
of the best polo in Texas, but works with the Ladies Polo Auxiliary
of Texas to support local charities. November 8, 2008 the 380Guide
Community Challenge Cup will be played at the 4th Annual Polo on
the Midway benefiting Bryan’s House, a program to assist children
with serious medical issues, will be held at Prestonwood Polo club
field from 2-5pm. In addition to the polo match, families can enjoy
carnival games, petting zoo, pony rides, bounce houses, shopping in
the arts & crafts market, silent auction, champagne divot stomp and

Great Products
Begin with
Great Ingredients!!!
By Dr. Amy Taylor
My favorite products will help repair and rejuvenate your skin. Not only do I look at the effectiveness of the product, but I look at the
person behind the company. Many companies are large corporations and are motivated by the bottom line and share holders. I buy
from companies I know and trust. The history and integrity of the owner behind the name is very important.
Hyaluronic Acid- attacks and binds water. It is great to hydrate. In skin care it helps to plump the tissue and provides moisture for
healthy collagen.
Glycolic Acid- an Alpha Hydroxy Acid and has the smallest molecule of all the Alpha Hydroxy. It can penetrate the deepest and the
most corrective. Glycolic stimulates new cells and helps rebuild collagen. Glycolic helps re-knit tears in the collagen matrix to repair
lines, firm and tone the skin.
Salicylic Acid or Beta Hydroxy- (active ingredient in Aspirin) works only on the surface and is safe for all skin types, also called a
Beta Hydroxy. This is found in many acne products. It is a strong exfoliator and has a drying affect on breakouts. Beta peels are also
used for mature skin to help remove tired and sun damaged skin.
Azulene- is derived from the Chamomile plant. It has an inky blue color and helps to sooth and heals irritations. It has antiinflammatory, analgesic, antiseptic properties.
Seaweeds- Rich in trace minerals, they improve hydration and circulation. Our bodies are 70-80% identical to seawater. HydroActive Depot by Dr. Grandel- Contains time released Hyaluronic Acid to provide moisture in a constant and continuous manner
and sea extracts to help heal and restore moisture to the skin. This product is by far my #1 seller. Every client buys and re-buys this
item. It is a concentrate, oil free moisturizer that is light enough for all skin types. Use am or pm, alone or under sunscreen.
Azulene Crème by Dr. Grandel- 24 Cream with soothing extracts of chamomile and wheat germ for special care of problem
skin. Has calming properties and offers moisture and protection. Great for skin that turn red easily and for acne programs to help
restore balance to the skin.
(Dr. Grandel is a family owned German business that has been around for 50 years and is in over 40 different countries. Manufactured
under pharmaceutical standards they bring the best of the plant base ingredients together with the latest in science based technology.)
Glymed Plus- Is owned by Christine Heathman who was one of the very first Esthetician to work with plastic surgeons and burn
victims. Her hands on history give her first hand knowledge of what works and what doesn’t. She also believes in plant extracts and
nutrients to heal the skin and was the first to combine anti-oxidants with AHAs. Christine Heathman was the first in the industry to
study and wrote the first book on chemicals and Skin of Color. Treatment Cream by Glymed Plus- Home care is 50% of the results my clients achieve. Using a Glycolic at home prepares the skin
for clinical treatments. This products contains a high percentage of Glycolic Acid plus retinal (similar to Retin-A) in a base of natural
oils and plant extracts to help dehydrate and condition the skin.
Astringent No. 5 and Sal-X Exfoliating Cleanser by Glymed Plus- Astringent No. 5 is a 5% solution of Salicylic Acid (higher
percentage than found in most other products) this product gets breakouts and acne under control. Sal-X Exfoliating Cleanser works
has tiny exfoliating crystals and a 2% Salicylic Acid. Best used in the shower it helps to remove sweat and oil build up that can come
from working outside or exercise.

The 2008 Fort Worth Alliance Air Show presented by Breitling, featuring this year’s only North Texas performance by a major U.S. military jet team,
will be held on October 11 and 12. Highlighted by the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds, this year’s performers also include the U.S. Army Golden Knights
Parachute Team, Gene Soucy with wingwalker Teresa Stokes, Manfred Radius’s unique glider aerobatics, and the Shockwave Jet Truck.
Also taking to the skies as part of the show are Jan Collmer, David Martin, John MacGuire, Randy Ball, Greg Poe, Michael Goulian, and several military
demonstration teams. The primary beneficiary for this year’s show is the USO of Dallas/Fort Worth, whose mission is to support U.S. troops and their
families by providing a wide range of free amenities, such as food, internet and e-mail access, housing assistance, and nursery facilities. In addition
the USO offers a unique benefit to service members through the United Through Reading Program, which records soldiers reading a children’s book,
then sends the new book and the recording to his or her family.
The 2007 Fort Worth Alliance Air Show attracted a two-day crowd of more than 180,000 people. The event contributed $25,000 directly to the USO.
Since 2006, Alliance Air Productions has raised more than $153,000 for local nonprofits that helped provide some of the event’s 400 volunteers.
“The free admission, children’s activities and the exciting performances, highlighted by the Thunderbirds, make the Fort Worth Alliance Air Show a
tremendous community event, particularly for families,” said Tim Ward, president of Alliance Air Productions. “It’s also gratifying that proceeds from the
show will benefit millions of service members, family members and veterans who pass through DFW Airport.”
The event will be held at Fort Worth Alliance Airport. Gates open at 9 a.m. with performances running until late afternoon. Admission is free. Parking is
$20 per vehicle. For a list of performers, parking information, exhibit and sponsorship rates, visit www.AllianceAirShow.com.
Time Stands Still

Photographer, Carol Ann Sowell, has always loved photography but did not pursue it until just recently. It was the
encouragement of friends and family that persuaded her to embraced her talent. “I love nature and animals and that’s where
my eye wonders when I’m looking for photos. I think there is beauty in the things we see every day. We just don’t see it
unless it’s pointed out. My goal is to capture some of the amazing things that nature has provided,” said Carol Ann.
The captivating images encapsulated by Carol Ann’s nature photography can astound you. Her ability to capture the vividness
of flora and fauna is eye popping. Not only is she a photographer but she is a decision-maker. She has the ability to decide
how to use her photographic equipment, surroundings and natural light to take a picture in a way that people will want to
view it. By capturing the perfect subject at just the right moment, the viewer can appreciate it, discover from it, experience
it and remember it. Carol Ann uses the old school method by allowing her photographs to remain true; she does not utilize
modern tools such as Photoshop to enhance her images.
As an active member of Oak Point Art Society or OPAS, she works with other local artist such as Rhonda Unnerstall, our
featured artist in this issue of 380Guide and provided all of the photographs used in the article.
Carol Ann moved to Texas at the age of 13 from southeastern Oklahoma. She has been married to her husband Jeff for 11
years. They moved to Oak Point in 2001 and love the small town atmosphere. “Like the saying goes, I wasn’t born here but
I got here just as fast as I could,” says Carol Ann.
Life, Liberty and Happiness – A Musical Perspective
By Kyla Welch
T
here are moments in history when the decisions and actions of a very few impact the way history unfolds around the globe for ever
after. The final vote for Britain’s American Colonies to declare independence from the British Crown was one of those moments.
As monumental as that decision was, many Americans today think about it only when forced to read the dry facts from a large history
book in school. Even on the 4th of July we are more preoccupied with fireworks than history. To be fair, history books are generally
not too entertaining. But what if the history lesson was set to music and had costumes and dancing? As luck would have it someone
did that very thing!
Denton Community Theatre (DCT) is thrilled to present the musical, 1776, written by Peter Stone with music and lyrics by Sherman
Edwards and produced by special arrangement with Music Theatre International. The action begins during an exceptionally hot summer
in Philadelphia. The second Continental Congress is hard at work deliberating the less than critical issue of whether someone should
be compensated for a mule that died while transporting goods for Congress. One member, John Adams, completely exasperated with
such trivialities, loudly demands that they discuss the possibility of America’s independence. The other members of Congress generally
agree that Mr. Adams is “obnoxious and disliked” and launch into song telling him to sit down and shut up.
This lively musical is filled with humor and poignancy, both in the musical numbers and the diverse characters that became our
country’s founding fathers. Although the road to independence was often difficult, the audience will have no problems enjoying this
look at history. Admittedly, Ben Franklin, John Hancock, John Adams and their fellow congressmen probably didn’t break into song to
discuss the events of the day, but the personalities and issues in 1776 are surprisingly true to historical
fact. So, DCT encourages parents and grandparents to bring the youngsters. They will learn a bit
about their nation’s history without knowing that it is educational.
This production opens on October 31, 2008 – just in time for the presidential elections-and runs
through November 9th. Direction is by long-time DCT veteran, Dennis Welch with musical direction
by Navo Jr. High Band Director, Ray Staniszewski and choreography by Anne Black-Scalf. This
team has a strong cast of many DCT audience favorites as well as new actors that are sure to become
audience favorites. Returning to the Campus stage from DCT’s production of The Sound of Music
are Daylon Walton and Cori Lynne. DCT is also excited to welcome back Burl Proctor and Tyler
Donahue, most recently seen in DCT’s Li’l Abner. The managing director of DCT, Mike Barrow, is
also getting the rare chance to show off his talent as a cast member.
For more information, or to purchase tickets, the Campus Theatre Box Office is open Monday –
Friday from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm – 940-382-1915.

Jim McNatt Auto Group Gives Back
By: Ann Harmon
The very catchy jingle of “Gotta, Gotta Get It at Jim McNatt” is a
familiar song for many North Texans. So, why should you get your
next vehicle at the Jim McNatt dealership in Denton? Well, if their
Council of Excellence Award from Honda, Gold Dealer Recognition
from Toyota, state-of-the art facilities, excellent customer service
index and great deals don’t convince you, then maybe their constant
effort to contribute to their community will sway your decision.
Not only does Jim McNatt offer one of the few dealerships in the
Dallas metroplex where you can compare Toyota, Scion, Honda, and
Dodge vehicles side by side as well as 150 quality pre-owned vehicles
-- including Toyota, Chrysler and Honda certified models, but they
strive to make their community a better place to live. Keeping with
The Toyota and Honda initiative of being environmental leaders,
Jim McNatt made the decision to be the first automotive dealership
in Denton to “Go Green”. They teamed up with the City of Denton
to implement recycling system for employees and customers. They
currently recycle 75% of their waste stream.
Another way that this family owned and operated dealership gives back
to the community is their McNatt Community Support program. Through
this fundraising program local schools and other non-profit organizations
were able to raise almost a half million dollars over a three year period.
“Participating organizations were able to keep 100 percent of the funds
they raised”, explained Marketing Director, Rennea Poignant-Howard. “I
am not aware of another fundraising program that allows its participants
to keep every dollar that is raised.”
The McNatt dealership in Denton has a commitment toward
community involvement, as well as constant improvement. “Our
management and sales team members have been working together
for a long time,” says TJ Houghton, Sales Director, “this enables
us to work together effectively to provide an outstanding customer
experience.” They want to tell you all information upfront and strive
to educate you on all vehicles before you make a purchase.
Not only does Jim McNatt offer great vehicles and excellent prices,
but they also excel in customer service. . Jim McNatt Honda recently
won the Honda President’s Award, which is presented to the top 15%
of Honda’s dealerships across the country, for surpassing standards
of customer service, satisfaction, facility operation, training and
sales. This is the fourth time Jim McNatt Honda has won the award. Jim McNatt Toyota is currently ranked in the top 7% of U.S. Toyota
dealerships in customer service satisfaction (CSI) and is #1 in the
district. The Dodge store exceeds Chrysler’s rigorous 5 Star standard
for service, satisfaction, and facility operation.
Considering McNatt’s attention to servicing your vehicle, the scores
are no surprise. Customers who purchase a new vehicle from Jim
McNatt qualify for a free loaner car during service visit (calling ahead
is best to insure availability). Factory trained personnel work on the
vehicles to assure high standards and genuine manufacturer parts
for maintenance. State-of-the art service areas offer complimentary
coffee, tea, bottled water, snacks, and computer link ups. Making
customers comfortable and productive while they wait is definitely a
priority. Saturday service hours add convenience.
Visit Jim McNatt Toyota/Dodge/Honda/Scion located at 4100 S.
I-35East, exit 462 in Denton, TX. For more information call 866626-2881 or visit the website at www.mcnattcars.com. The Sales
Department is open Monday-Saturday, 8:30am-8pm. Service hours
are 7am-7pm Monday-Friday and 8am-5pm on Saturday. :
“Jim McNatt has regenerated my faith in Automotive Service
Departments, as well as the process of purchasing a car. My first
experience with Jim McNatt was in their service department about
a year ago. My car was still under warranty and the DVD player
went out. They had to special order the player that was in my car.
Once I arrived, they provided me with a rental car and had my car
completed when promised. The following day, I received a phone
call from my service technician and he told me that they had the
DVD that I left in the player. The DVD is one of my son’s favorites
so you can imagine my relief. Unfortunately, I could not return to
pick it up for several weeks due to my busy schedule. When I had the
time to drop in to pick it up I half expected it to no longer be there,
but to my surprise it was! I have continued to use Jim McNatt’s
Service Department and I have always had a stress free experience.
After receiving such good care from the Service Department, when
it was time to purchase a new car I went to visit Jim McNatt. As a
female, I have had my share of unpleasant car buying experiences,
however; this was a surprisingly fun experience. The finance officer
was lovely and we even ended the process with a Champaign popper
(that shoots out streamer) to celebrate my new car. I happily drove
away from my car buying experience! I would recommend Jim
McNatt to anyone needing dependable service or in the market for a
new car.” -Jodie Linton-Prickett, 380News/380Guide.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Eye Disease and Vision Disorders
By: Andrea Hikel
Most people will say that when they were growing up they
had a fear of monsters under the bed, spiders, broccoli and . .
. dentists. Many grown adults still harbor the fear of someone
poking and pulling at their teeth. The dreadful anticipation of
waiting in a cold room that has the “dentist office smell”, while
listening to the low hum of tooth drills, scares many patients
away.
These fears will be put to rest upon entering the office of Dr.
Jerit Davis, DDS in Frisco. You will enter a calm and relaxed
atmosphere that will make you feel right at home. The waiting
room is equipped with comfortable couches and a flat screen
TV. You will almost forget that you are at the dentist and not
in someone’s living room. Patients will find that the staff truly
cares about their well-being and will do everything they can to
develop a long-term relationship.
As a young child, Dr. Davis had aspirations of either becoming
a weatherman or a dentist. Lucky for his patients, he chose
the latter of the two. He enjoyed his checkups as a child and
always stuck around to ask more questions. Davis received his
undergraduate degree from Harding University and went on
to pursue his DDS from the University of Missouri’s School
of Dentistry in Kansas City. He previously practiced in Plano,
and in January 2007 decided to move his work and family to
Frisco. Davis offers general, pediatric, cosmetic and restorative
dental procedures. Most PPO plans are accepted and there are
affordable rates for patients who do not have insurance. “High
prices should not keep you from taking care of yourself”, says
Haylee Davis, “Your teeth are connected to the rest of your body.
A toothache could lead to other more serious health problems.”
Dr. Davis’ extensive training allows procedures to be done inhouse except for traditional braces.
Dr. Davis and his wife, Haylee, picked Frisco because of its rapid
growth and outstanding school system. They are members of
the Frisco Chamber of Commerce in order to stay in touch with
their community. With the constant growth and development of
Frisco and the surrounding areas, the practice has future plans
of extending their services to other locations.
Dr. Jerit Davis, DDS is located at 4685 Eldorado Pkwy #200
in Frisco. Office hours are Monday through Friday 7am-6pm.
They are also available two Saturdays a month. Flexible office
hours allow patients to receive care at the convenience of their own
schedule. For more information visit www.jeritdavisdds.com.

Scout’s Honor
By: Andrea Hikel
His eyes twinkled and his smile was
contagious as he pointed to various patches
on his khaki jacket and vest. Scoutmaster
Buddy Givens explained how his insignia
was acquired with great excitement and pride.
Givens began his scouting career as a young
boy and volunteered without hesitation when
his own son decided to join the brotherhood
of Boy Scouts. Today, he is the Scoutmaster
for Troop 372. The troop was started in order to fulfill the need
for one in the area due to children graduating from the local Boy
Scout program. It is the newest troop in the Frontier Trails District
of the Longhorn Council.
Every Monday Boy Scout Troop 372 gathers at the Savannah
Community Center with the goal of developing character,
citizenship and physical fitness. Givens, along with parents
and volunteers, work side-by-side to provide an exciting and
educational scouting experience for the boys in their troop. The
troop consists of seven boys from Savannah, Paloma Creek, Little
Elm, Aubrey and Pilot Point.
Soon you will be seeing Boy Scouts and their parents selling popcorn
around your neighborhood. These fundraisers are important in order
to fund their summer camps and family outings. “Summer camp is
one of the most important functions a new Boy Scout can attend,”
says Givens. During this week long camp they have the opportunity
to earn requirements for rank advancement. A feeling of success and
advancement will encourage the Scouts to continue attending the
program throughout the year. Troops are allowed to set their own
agenda for the year and then guided through the steps to make it
happen. It allows them to learn the things they are most interested
in and take on the responsibility of organizing these events. “Scout
Leaders should be called advisors not leaders,” says Givens. “They
choose their own agenda and how to make it happen. We are simply
there to offer advice and supervision.”
Buddy Givens has attended some exciting events in his Boy Scout
career. He has been to places such as Thailand, Chili and China
to participate in Scout gatherings. “Not only are they receiving
character building, but they are learning about other cultures,” says
Givens. They have hosted an Israel singing group and helped them
book events where they could share their talent. Scouts had the
opportunity to sit in on an English class at a China high school and
interact with students. In November the troop will attend a Council
Camporee at Texas Motor Speedway, a trout
tournament in February and an emergency
preparedness camp next September. All the
while, members of the troop will be earning
patches for the things they have learned. The
list of amazing adventures goes on and on,
and some have experienced all of this before
the age of 18.
Most of the activities the Boy Scouts participate in would not be
possible without the aid that comes from fundraisers. This money is
used to purchase equipment and to subsidize the costs of camping
and other outings. Their primary fundraiser is popcorn sells, but
they also provide concession sales at local events. So, when you
see Boy Scouts and their parents hard at work selling popcorn,
remember that it is for a good cause.
Family outing and weekend campouts are part of the fun of being
a Boy Scout, but it is not all that it has to offer. Scouts will learn
what it means to be responsible, set high goals for themselves and
gain the tools to become a productive member of society. To learn
more about enrolling your child in a Boy Scout troop, becoming
a Scout Leader or to donate to the current fundraising program,
please contact Buddy Givens at [email protected].

Denton Holiday Lighting Festival
By: Micah Pazoureck
C
ome capture the true spirit of a small-town holiday
celebration on Thursday, December 4th, on Denton’s
Historic Courthouse Square. The 20th Annual Denton Holiday
Lighting Festival begins at 5:30 P.M. with a sing-along and
the traditional lighting of the community Christmas tree on
the Courthouse-on-the-Square lawn.
A live nativity scene, choirs, bell-ringers, dancers, and
performances on outdoor stages will transport the child in
you to memories of Christmas past. Taking a spin around
the square in a horse-drawn carriage, taking a photo with
Santa or participating in interactive crafts and art booths will
forge memories for the little ones today. You can also vote
for your favorite Wassail drink as downtown businesses
compete for first place in the Wassail Fest.
Once again the festival hosts Santa’s Helpers Toy Drive.
Pete Delkus, WFAA/Channel 8 meteorologist and Santa’s
Helpers spokesperson, will be on hand to gather toys for
families needing assistance during the Christmas season.
A drive-through toy drop-off will be at the corner of Hickory
and Locust streets.
To cap off the evening, Denton’s own Grammy Award
Winners, Brave Combo, will add their “nuclear polka” to
the season. It isn’t Christmas in Denton without a Chicken
Dance on the lawn.

So That’s What an Emergency Fund is For!
By Brad Cason
Unless you have been in a cave or on an island somewhere, you
may have noticed that the economy is struggling. There is a lot of
gloom and doom in the media proposing that the financial world as
we know it today is coming to an end. The headlines are filled with
high gas prices, the collapse of our banking system, the mortgage
crisis, hurricanes and job layoffs. Yes, those things are occurring
but it’s not a new phenomenon. Throughout history there have
been economic good times as well as downturns like the one we
are in now. In fact, discounting the current economic climate, on
average, each of us will experience a financial set back of $5000
or more every 10 years. We will all experience a storm or two in
our lifetime.
Since we know that it will eventually rain, a cash cushion is the
best umbrella to have in a financial storm. As a rule of thumb,
experts agree that having 3 to 6 months of expenses set aside for
when “life happens” is recommended. Obviously to know how
much you need to save, you will need to know what your expenses
are. A good, detailed and agreed upon monthly spending plan will
help you know how much you need to have set aside. The best
place to put this emergency money is a bank savings or money
market account so it will be readily available when the need arises.
Accounts that you can access quickly will typically have lower
interest rate but that is a good trade off for liquidity. The advantage
of an FDIC-insured bank is that it is insured up to $100,000 by
the US Government. If you money is in a money market account
inside a mutual fund, you don’t have FDIC protection.
Now here is where it gets tricky and takes some adult discipline
when your emergency fund is easy to access. The emergency fund
is NOT a vacation fund, big screen TV fund; I want it now fund
or I deserve this toy fund. A credit card is not an emergency fund.
Adding debt is not a smart decision when faced with a crisis situation.
That would be like pouring gasoline on a fire. The emergency fund
is security against the loss of a job, a medical emergency, major
vehicle or house repair. Your 401K or other retirement accounts
are NOT your emergency fund. Borrowing against your 401K
should not be an option except to avoid foreclosure or bankruptcy
and most of the time things can be worked out to keep from even
tapping into it under those circumstances. Losing a job with an
outstanding loan balance on your 401K could cost you a lot of
money in penalties and taxes.
The bottom line is that having a fully funded emergency fund
should be a priority so that when the next storm comes, you and
your family can weather it.

"Doctor, I am going to kill myself!"
Dear friend,
Yeah, this isn't the best thing to hear from
your patient on a Monday morning, but that’s
what I get. You see, I am a chiropractor and
we get the worst of the worst. This patient
here, Cathy, was a 45 year old with
neuropathy in her legs and feet. She had
poorly controlled diabetes and her life was a
living hell, clearly she was at the end of her
rope! The nerves in her legs and feet were
damaged and she was in CONSTANT
TERRIBLE PAIN!
This patient changed my life forever.
She couldn't sleep because at night her
legs felt like they were being eaten,
chewed on by little animals. During
the day, she could hardly walk and
every step sent shooting pain like
lightening from her toes to her legs.
Here’s what some of my patients have to
say:
I went to several doctors who told me that
surgery was the only thing that could be
done. I found out from other people that
doesn’t always help and to try Chiropractic
care first. I started coming to Dr. Cox, my
son was coming to him at the time. He had
a car accident and said he had done
wonders for him, so I tried him out. Sure
enough, I started coming to him and now I
feel MUCH, MUCH better than I did then.
Thank you Dr. Cox for helping me.
Patricia W., Lewisville, TX
These types of results happen in my office
all the time. You see, people hear about this
chiropractor who also uses NEUROLOGY to
diagnose and treat and they send me the
hardest people possible! What a great way
to spend a day in an office like this!
For one, it has to do with the advanced
training that I have. I am one of only a
handful of doctors with specific training to
care for patients with Peripheral Neuropathy.
I am a member of the Neuropathy
Treatment Centers of America. This gives
me an unfair advantage to help patients with
tingling, burning, numb PAINFUL feet. The
other thing is that I use tools and instruments
like no one else. Well what can I say, I’ve
trained with the best!
www.380Guide.com You see, I started in Little Elm in 2002 with
my wife, Kerri (she’s the one in the photo,
with our daughter, Addison). That was it, just
the two of us.
We’ve grown since then.
Now we are in a new office, and we want to
have a practice that helps as many people
as we can. We want to get the word out to
as many people as possible that our
new office may be the place for you!
Don’t
miss
this
golden
opportunity!

After one month of care, she was
so happy with her new life, she
baked me a cake! What I realized is
that my job is creating peace in
people’s lives.
That’s why I’ve put together the “Ultimate
Peripheral
Neuropathy
Treatment
Program” for anyone who is suffering from
the symptoms of Peripheral Neuropathy
Pain. And when these health situations are
resolved, its not just improvement in quality
of life, it’s really peace.
You benefit from an amazing offer!
Let me perform my highly-specialized
Qualitative, Clinical Scoring System
of the Peripheral Nervous System.
This Entire Evaluation & Qualifying
Process Is Only $47!
She told me that she didn't think
she could continue to live like this
and I felt her pain. But what could I
do?? Well, along with my care, I
developed a multi-pronged attack
that to my knowledge, no other
doctors have even heard about,
much less are using this program.
You see, the patients I take care of
experience severe pain like electric or
stabbing all the time, disturbed sleeping
patterns, Restless Leg Syndrome, fatigue,
depression, numbness and tingling in the
toes, pain in the legs when they walk. These,
my friend, are a lot of unnecessary
symptoms.
completely safe laser procedure, because
we will be using a non-invasive healing light
that has been proven to work wonders on
your type of symptoms. This ULTIMATE new
therapy is clinically proven to reverse
neuropathy symptoms and was tested by
NASA!
“You guys are wonderful. Before I
came here I couldn’t even take a step
without crying, and now I can walk and
I actually took my son trick-or-treating
last night, which I didn’t think I was
going to be able to do. You guys are
wonderful. Praise you!”
- Tina D., Little Elm
Innovative care -- Powerful results
Using the latest in technology, I offer totally
non-invasive care. I help patients get well
with literally no twisting or popping of their
spine because I use patented adjusting
instrumentation which is highly-researched,
low-force and computerized. This moves the
bones of the spine and feet and frees the
nerve damage caused by old herniated discs
or arthritis. You can't have nerve pressure or
'pinched nerves' and get better from
Neuropathy!
More about this Unique Care.
Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a newly
developed tool also known as "cold" laser or
"soft" laser therapy, meaning a treatment
that uses near-infrared light. This by the way,
is space age technology. This is a
No. 36
And schedule your Peripheral
Neuropathy Qualification Evaluation.

nature of this offer, this offer ends

everyone qualifies for this advanced
neuropathy treatment.
