National Night Out
Posted by Nick Weynand in WNA Events on August 23rd, 2009
National Night Out is scheduled for Tuesday October 6th from 6-9 pm. This is a nationwide crime and drug prevention awareness and community spirit campaign. It’s a great opportunity to turn on the porch lights, lock the doors, and visit outside with your neighbors (block parties are encouraged). Certainly it will be cooler by then!
The reason I’m sending this email out now is because the deadline to request fire/police/EMS personnel to come visit your party is August 28th. Kids especially love this, so if you are interested in hosting a block party (as big or small as you want), then please visit www.ci.austin.tx.us/police/nno.htm for more information.

August 2009 Winners
Posted by Nick Weynand in Yard of the Month on August 3rd, 2009
Mary and Stephen Dean are the August 2009 Yard of the Month winners!
By Judy Jeffersion
The Yard of the Month winners for August are Mary and Stephen Dean who have lived at 6210 Sun Vista since August of 1980. Their home was one of the first 50 homes to be built in Westcreek. They have four grown children, three daughters and one son. All four of the children were raised in this house and attended local schools. They
have seen many changes to the neighbrohood in the past 29 years.
Many of their original neighbors and friends have long since moved, but new families have replaced them. Mary and Stephen told me how
much they enjoy our neighborhood and feel comfortable and safe here.
They have added on to the house, made several improvements and many upgrades over the years. Their next project will be remodeling the kitchen and dining area. Mary was so delighted to have her yard chosen, and couldn’t wait to call the children with the good news.
The Dean’s received a $25 gift certificate from Randalls and a $50 gift certificate from Emerald Garden. Randalls and Emerald Garden continue to be generous supporters of our YOM effort here in Westcreek. Be sure to support them in return.
