LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
I
’d like to begin by welcoming Barry and Marsha Madsen to the Timberwood Park community. For those of you who haven’t heard or haven’t had a chance to meet them, the Madsens were hired last month as our new Park Caretakers. They are very excited and enthusiastic about the opportunity to serve in this position and serve our community, and they have already done a great job of getting out and getting to know residents in the park. They and their daughter have also moved in to the caretaker house, and while Barry and Marsha are ready and willing to assist park patrons with issues, we urge you to please respect the privacy of their home as much as possible. As you are reading this newsletter, you should have already received via U.S. Mail the notice for the 2017 TPOA Annual Meeting scheduled for Tuesday, December 5, along with proxy and absentee ballots and a list of the candidates for the four TPOA Board seats that are up for election. If you have not yet received this information, please contact spectrum via e-mail at contact@spectrumam.com, or by calling 210-494-0659. Last month, as I saw the packed house at the October TPOA board meeting and people enjoying the barbecue meal that was provided, I was reminded of a time not too long ago in my board tenure when hardly anybody would come to the meetings, so we thought serving food might help attract more people to come. Well fast-forward a couple of years and the meetings are now standing-roomonly! It’s great to see so many people taking an interest in what’s going on in the neighborhood and taking an active role in constructively voicing their support, concern, or any other viewpoint. What’s not great to see is the sometimes personal level of attacks on social media directed toward the board and sometimes individual board members and other neighbors. Everyone is certainly entitled to their opinions. Some folks don’t believe that we need a clubhouse. Some have negative views of things like architectural control requirements and fine policies. Some have different ideas for things we should do in the park with regard to operations and initiatives. Those types of disagreements are natural and to be expected, and there are valid points and counter-points to these types of arguments. We are a very large neighborhood and not everyone will ever agree
on everything. But when the postings begin to move toward baseless accusations, like alleging that the board is knowingly or otherwise violating laws, or the posts demean or defame the character of individual board members or other neighborhood residents, it becomes a serious problem. I’m not here to lecture anybody on the use of social media or free speech or anything like that. But posting on social media creates a permanent record that is invariably spread around, so even an accusation can absolutely impact an individual’s personal life or career. Beyond potentially being the grounds for slander or defamation proceedings, dragging someone’s name through the mud without verification of the facts beforehand is unneighborly, unproductive, and it can negatively affect the community. To end on a more positive note, I’d like to again thank the many volunteers who give so much of their time and energy to supporting the many great events that we have in the neighborhood each year, and of course to Karen O’Neil who makes them all possible. The recent Halloween in the Park marked the end of what is sort of the “peak season” of social events, which started with the barbecue cook off in April and continued through the spring, summer and early fall. Karen and her volunteers are already at work planning what will be another tremendous season in 2018! Thanks for your time, and I’ll see you around the neighborhood! Greg Matula TPOA Board President

Snag Some Shady Savings By Mark Peterson, SAWS Conservation Consultant
Shade trees, properly placed and planted, will significantly reduce cooling costs for your home. They can also earn you some extra dough. CPS Energy wants you to plant some green in your yard and, in return, they’ll put a little green back in your wallet. It’s all part of their Green Shade Tree Rebate program. CPS Energy customers can get rebates of $50 for each eligible tree purchased and planted. Rebates are awarded on a first come, first serve basis and there is a lifetime limit of five rebates per address. The requirements for the Green Shade Tree Rebate program are simple. • Purchase qualified species that are 5 gallons or larger. Eligible trees are listed on the site and the application form. • Send in the completed application form along with a photocopy of the original sales receipt and a photocopy of your recent CPS Energy bill. • The program will continue through April 30 or until program funds run out.

The benefits to planting trees are numerous: they increase your property value, reduce air pollution and even slow water runoff with their roots. CPS Energy loves trees for their ability to help reduce peak electricity demand in summer and the need for expensive new power plants. And SAWS promotes tree planting because once established, trees require little to no supplemental water. They also create a shaded environment for other plants, reducing their water stress and need for additional water. Just visit Garden Style San Antonio for tips on how to plant trees and get them established. Fall is for planting! So buy some trees, get them in the ground and apply for the Green Shade Tree Rebate. Your energy and water bills will thank you.

FALL HOME MAINTENANCE TIPS It’s that time of year—you’ve exchanged your swimsuit for sweaters and scarves just in time to roll up your sleeves and prepare your home for cooler weather. As we watch summer fade into the sunset, consider adding the following items to your winterization checklist, and ensure your home is in tip-top shape for the fall and winter seasons. • Update your window treatments. Summer’s venetian blinds and sheer curtain panels won’t keep the frigid air from creeping in on a cold night. Consider switching to a denser curtain fabric for the winter months to keep your home feeling cozy and keep heating bills low. • Schedule appliance check-ups. Your HVAC system, air ducts and hot water heater should be checked by

a licensed professional to ensure all elements are in good shape for the change in weather—especially if any appliances worked overtime during summer months. • Don’t forget the attic. Check for leaks in the roof, possible cracks in attic windows and insufficient insulation. With the help of a licensed professional or advice from your local home improvement store staff, you can shield your attic from harsh weather. • Replace weather stripping. Doors and windows need extra help to hold heat inside your home. Inspect all door and window perimeters for cracks or tears in your current weather stripping. You also can add a second layer of protection with temporary weather stripping applied overtop your existing seals. • Deep clean and declutter. Thoroughly clean your home’s nooks and crannies inside and out. Ensure electrical cords, outlets and air vents are dust- and clutter-free; tidy up garages and storage areas; and clear any debris from your home’s exterior, especially around vents and drains.

Veteran’s Day November 11 2017 Veteran’s Day was originally named Armistice Day, commemorating the end of World War I – “the war to end all wars”. After US involvement in World War II and the Korean War, the day was renamed Veteran’s Day to reflect the heroism and sacrifice of all who served in defense of the country. In 1978 President Gerald Ford designated November 11th as the official date. The day is commemorated with parades and solemn observances at National Cemeteries. It is a day to reflect on the lives of those who have defended our freedom.

Thanksgiving Safety For most, the kitchen is the heart of the home, especially during the holidays. From testing family recipes to decorating cakes and cookies, everyone enjoys being part of the preparations. So keeping fire safety top of mind in the kitchen during this joyous but hectic time is important, especially when there’s a lot of activity and people at home. As you start preparing your holiday schedule and organizing that large family feast, remember, by following a few simple safety tips you can enjoy time with your loved ones and keep yourself and your family safer from fire. Thanksgiving by the numbers: • Thanksgiving is the peak day for home cooking fires, followed by Christmas Day and Christmas Eve. • In 2015, U.S. fire departments responded to an estimated 1,760 home cooking fires on Thanksgiving, the peak day for such fires. • Unattended cooking was by far the leading contributing factor in cooking fires and fire deaths. • Cooking equipment was involved in almost half (48%) of all reported home fires and civilian and tied with heating equipment for the second leading cause of home fire deaths. Safety tips: • Stay in the kitchen when you are cooking on the stovetop so you can keep an eye on the food. • Stay in the home when cooking your turkey and check on it frequently. • Keep children away from the stove. The stove will be hot and kids should stay 3 feet away. • Make sure kids stay away from hot food and liquids. The steam or splash from vegetables, gravy or coffee could cause serious burns. • Keep the floor clear so you don’t trip over kids, toys, pocketbooks or bags. • Keep knives out of the reach of children. • Be sure electric cords from an electric knife, coffee maker, plate warmer or mixer are not dangling off the counter within easy reach of a child. • Keep matches and utility lighters out of the reach of children — up high in a locked cabinet. • Never leave children alone in room with a lit candle. • Make sure your smoke alarms are working. Test them by pushing the test button. Source: www.nfpa.org
