Other weeds:
We collected over 30 tons of unwanted items and the community is looking great! Thank you again for participating!
Please check your lawns for broadleaf weeds and spray. The seeds from other weeds have taken root and have been seen in the rocked areas; please spray and remove. Just spraying the weeds does not completely resolve the weed problem; please pull them too.
WEEDS, WEEDS, and More WEEDS! Noxious Weed Alert With all of the rain in the Peyton/ Falcon area, weeds are more prevalent than ever.
Canada Thistle
Mullein
Please check your property for these noxious weeds. Noxious weeds are flowers/plants that are not native to Colorado. These plants need to be removed.
Builders have been notified to mow their lots and to remove any weeds which may spread onto neighboring properties.

This is a great time to stop by the model home of your builder and see what's new! Builders include Creekstone, Covington, and Richmond! Some of you may have received courtesy letters regarding your lawn, shrubs or trees, and it is possible that your landscape is still under warranty by your builder. The requirements for your yard can be found on the website, https://stonebridgemeridian.nabrnetwork.com under RESOURCES and then GOVERNING DOCUMENTS. The Lodge is hopping too! Estelle is eager to meet everyone in the community and can help answer many questions or find the answer if she doesn’t know it right off. Perhaps you have been considering changing up or modifying your home. If you are ready to make improvements, the application is also found on the website which you can fill out and send back to us at the emails below or the dynamic form provided, with the diagram of the improvements you would like to make. Please include as much detail as you can such as measurements, heights, and colors. You are also welcome to send it via USPS or drop it by our office. Your application and diagram (drawn or printed from google maps with modifications drawn on) are fine. You can even take a picture of either and email it back to us.

News You Can Use from the Falcon Fire Protection District Are You Signed Up for Emergency Notifications? The recent wildfires in our state are a good reminder about the importance of being able to receive emergency notifications. Disasters and emergencies can happen anywhere and at any time, so you and your family need to be able to receive alerts related to evacuations, shelterin-place instructions, or other emergency situations that require you to take action to remain safe. Locally, these kinds of emergency notifications are issued through the El Paso-Teller County 911 Authority’s Emergency Notification System (ENS). You must sign up to receive ENS alerts, even if you already receive other kinds of messages such as Amber Alerts or weather notifications on your cell phone or other devices. The ENS allows users to list up to five locations and up to eight points of contact. Users may also choose how they receive notifications to include by phone call, email, and text message. For complete information about the Emergency Notification System and how to register for alerts, go to: https://www.elpasoteller911.org/246/ Emergency-Notification-System Another important tip: During any emergency, you should stay informed by using as many forms of communication as possible. Stay tuned to news broadcasts, radio stations, social media websites, weather radios, etc. Do not put your safety at risk waiting for a phone call or notification to be told what to do. If at any time you feel that you are in danger, you should take whatever action you feel is necessary to get yourself to safety. Call 911 for Emergencies, Not the Fire Station Always call 911 for a medical emergency, fire, or other emergency situation. Don’t call the fire station directly because crews may not be available to answer your call, and that will cause a delay in getting you the help you Page 6
need. By calling 911, a trained call-taker can start the emergency dispatch process even while he or she is taking your information. The 911 line also records the number you are calling from in case your call is disconnected. For non-emergency issues requiring a response from law enforcement, fire department, or emergency medical services, call the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office Dispatch Center non-emergent number: 719-390-5555. For routine fire department business, you may call Falcon Fire Protection District’s administrative phone number, 719-495-4050, during normal business hours. Please do NOT use this number to report emergencies!

Falcon High School Updates:
Manager’s Message for August 2018
Colorado High School Activities Association has joined with Arbiter Athlete and all the schools across the state to now host their Pre-Participation Athletic Forms online with ArbiterAthlete. This digital platform will allow you and your student(s) to complete and access athletic forms via computer, tablet, or mobile phone. You are able to fill out all athletic forms necessary for your student to participate in athletics at Falcon. Please refer to the Falcon High School athletics webpage for detailed instructions for registration!
Colorado’s semi-arid climate is punctuated with multi-year droughts, reminding us of the value of plentiful water supplies. Water supply planners estimate that a typical household needs 0.4 to 0.5 acre-feet of water per year (approximately 150,000 gal) to satisfy the typical demands of a home and lawn. However, we can get by on far less.
3B Construction Update:
During drought or times of restricted landscape watering, most lawns, including bluegrass, will withstand reduced watering regimes by going dormant. In these situations, adjust mowing, fertilizing, aeration, and weed control practices appropriately to the watering schedule. Most lawns can be revived with good management and care after the drought breaks. Changing landscape plants and lawn grass species during drought is NOT a good idea, as it generally takes more water to establish new plants than to keep old plants alive.
In Meridian Ranch, some of the common areas have irrigated turf, but much of the common areas around our trails and open spaces use native grasses that are not irrigated and are not normally mowed. During periods of warm, dry weather, the native grasses will become stressed and turn brown, but will not necessarily die. They can often be revived by a few good rains.
New academic spaces at Falcon High School are here! Students will file into their newly created academic classrooms and flex spaces. The new academic wing will create opportunities for all students at Falcon High School. Those within our Health Academy will experience simulated ambulance bays. Students in our engineering and landscaping program will have access to cutting edge technology. Students in our theater programs will have a newly developed location to build sets! Thanks This article lists ways to reduce water consumption outside of your home. to the voters in District 49, education at Falcon High School is moving • It is best to water between the hours of 10 pm to 6 am, instead of forward! during the heat of the day • A “Cycle and Soak” method of watering is best for ground saturation and root growth

• Make sure sprinkler heads are adjusted properly, so they do not spray onto the driveway or street
• Fertilize your lawn 2-3 times per year, it is best to do this before a rain storm so you don’t need to use your irrigation to water the fertilizer in.
The best way to water your lawn is to use the “cycle and soak” method. The cycle and soak method means dividing the watering time for an area of your yard into smaller increments (cycles), which allows the water to infiltrate (soak) into the soil. If an area is watered for too long, many soils cannot absorb water as quickly as it comes out of the sprinklers. Water that cannot be absorbed by the soil is wasted because it runs off the surface. Allowing the water to soak into the soil between cycles makes sure the water is being put to good use. Divide the zone’s watering time into two or three cycles. Water the first cycle, then wait about an hour before you water again. For more information on how long a zone should run, check out the scheduled recommended at https://www.csu.org/ CSUDocuments/cyclesoak.pdf . The cycle and soak watering method not only saves water, but also improves your lawn’s health. Moisture deep in the soil promotes deeper roots, which contributes to a thicker, healthier, greener lawn. Don’t water for short periods in both the morning and the evening. The water never soaks deeply into the soil, leading to shallow roots and unhealthy grass. David A. Pelser, General Manager, Meridian Service Metropolitan District Sources: Colorado State University Extension, Colorado Springs Utilities Cycle and Soak pamphlet.

Eye care is a vital part of a child’s overall health! Kids don’t always have the ability to understand or tell us that they have vision problems, so getting regular eye exams is essential. Undiagnosed and uncorrected vision problems can lead to trouble in school, reading difficulty, headaches and other behavioral issues. Just for Grins doesn’t want anything to stand in the way of kids being kids. That’s why they make appointments as convenient as possible so kids get checkups frequently! Just for Grins is also proud to be a one-stop-shop for buying new eyewear. No need to take a lens prescription to a third-party retailer. They carry a wide variety of eyeglasses and sunglasses for all ages from all the best designers. They’ll help you find the perfect pair to fit your life and style! While they primarily treat kids, they happily see adults too, both for eye care and smile care. From the first tooth through adulthood, they welcome patients of all ages, regardless of whether they’re a parent. They’ve tried to create an atmosphere that makes the littlest patients feel comfortable and want adult patients to feel that way too.

D49: Military Students Learning to Hang in There The life of a military student is challenging. Frequent moves across the globe bring constant change and new beginnings. “Being a military kid can be hard, but things like this make it easier,” said third-grader, Becky Simpson. Third and fourth-grade militaryconnected students in District 49 navigated a restorative ropes course as a team at La Foret in Black Forest June 13. The course promotes practice and application of social and emotional skills, while teaching students to work together. The event happened just in time for Becky whose father serves in the U.S. Army. Becky is getting ready for her family’s third move as she prepares to enter only her fourth year of school. “The ropes course was so much fun! It helped me know how to get ready for moving to Italy,” shared Becky. “I know not to be scared about meeting new people and making new friends.” District 49 understands the significance of the military population and value of providing support to families that serve. By providing a Military Student Transition Consultant (MSTC), military and federal service families have a helping hand in D49 to ensure smooth academic transitions, referrals to installations and community resources, and social emotional support for students. The event organizer, Melissa Dashner, MSTC in D49, commented, “Students are able to discover and develop their own skills, potential and passion.” Military-connected students face challenges such as Permanent Change of Station (PCS) moves and deployments. “The restorative ropes course arms them with skills that can be later applied in these scenarios,” stated Dashner.
