News For the Residents of Coles Crossing

Girl Scout Cadette Troop 14173 In late September, Girl Scout Cadette Troop 14173 prepared and served lunch for 75 volunteers and families at a Habitat for Humanity build site in the Champions area. (Through volunteer labor and donations of material and money, Habitat for Humanity builds and restores homes for families in need. Habitat has helped build more than 400,000 homes, serving 2 million people around the world.) Habitat events typically attract adult volunteers, so these 6th graders from Spillane Middle School were particularly happy to participate and see the results of their efforts. They plan to volunteer again in the spring. The girls also participated in the dedication of three new Habitat homes.  Girl Scouting strives to build girls of courage, confidence and character. These girls, of the Compass Rose Service Unit, have shown that they are indeed making the world a better place.  For more information about Girl Scouts, contact [email protected]. For more information about Habitat for Humanity in Northwest Harris County, contact Karly Grillot at 281-820-2307, ext. 307.

THE COLES CONNECTION Stuffed Animal Drive The Compass Rose Girl Scout Service Unit is sponsoring a New Stuffed Animal Drive for the Houston Police Department in November and December at area schools. Information about collection dates will be distributed in the coming weeks. This third annual drive was a Girl Scout service project initiated by Julia Marie Briggs, who passed away unexpectedly in May, 2009, at the age of 13. Julia was an active athlete at Hamilton Middle School, Captain of the Cy-Fair Iron Maidens Lacrosse Team and a busy Girl Scout. As a Cadette scout, Julia was working to earn her Silver Award by organizing a service project for the Houston Police Department’s Homicide Division. She saw a need to comfort young children who were involved in homicide cases, whether as witnesses or even suspects. Julia arranged a new stuffed animal drive that was to kick off in December 2009. Within days of her passing, her Lacrosse team members and Girl Scout troop members decided that they would finish this project in her honor. With thousands of new stuffed animals collected each year, this worthy project continues today. Please watch for information from your school about upcoming collection dates. Collections also will be held at Compass Rose Girl Scout events in November and December and at the Cy-Fair Burning Flower Lacrosse Classic tournament, named in Julia’s honor, in early December. Consider donating new stuffed animals in memory of a young woman and her promise and in honor of young children in need. For more information, contact Vera Briggs at [email protected].

THE COLES CONNECTION

What is CFIMLAX?

The answer is Cy-Fair Iron Maidens Lacrosse. The Iron Maidens were formed about ten years ago and have an impressive resume for the short time the program has been in existence. The Iron Maidens Varsity program has been runner-up in state the past two years and will be led by a senior-rich squad during the 2011-2012 season. The Middle School program is instrumental in developing the younger players and preparing them for the high school level. The Iron Maidens also offer programs for girls as young as 3rd grade. Lacrosse is considered to be North America’s oldest sport and was originated by the North American Indian. Youth Lacrosse in America is the fastest growing segment of the sport and High School Lacrosse is seeing phenomenal growth compared to other sports. The high school teams practice at Bleyl Middle School and the middle school and youth practice at the Coles Crossing Fields. The regular season takes place in the spring and the teams compete in tournaments during the fall. The Iron Maidens attend the Halloween Shootout (Dallas Area) each fall and take 4-5 teams to play in the different age groups.

In December every year the Iron Maidens host the Burning Flower Tournament. The 2011 tournament will be held December 3rd -4th at Cullen Park (19008 Saums Rd., Houston TX). This tournament has taken on a more special meaning in recent years as we honor the memory of one of our former players. On May 30, 2009, thirteen year-old Julia Marie Briggs, a former Iron Maiden, suddenly and very unexpectedly passed away from Mediastinal Lymphoma (a very rare and aggressive cancer). Prior to her passing, Julia was beginning her quest to attain the Silver Award for Girls Scouts. Her idea was to gather stuffed animals for the Houston Police Department for homicide detectives to give to children to hold for comfort in times of crisis. Please come out to see some fantastic girl’s lacrosse and donate stuffed animals to support the Houston Police Department. For information on how to donate stuffed animals please send an email to either 808adoberoad@att. net or [email protected]. To learn more about the Cy-Fair Iron Maidens program, please visit us at www. cyfairironmaidenslacrosse.org . www.cypressassisstance.org
