Hot off the Press!!

On Tuesday, October 1st, The Woods HOA will host our annual National Night Out.  This event is always a very popular event and we look forward to spending an evening with our neighbors and community leaders.  This year, we are asking our neighbors to consider volunteering their time so that everyone can enjoy participating in the fun.  A Sign-Up Genius has been set up to coordinate volunteer time slots.  Also, this year will be a potluck event, so please plan to bring a covered dish to share with your neighbors.   SIGN UP NOW!

 In an effort to recognize neighbors who add to the beauty of our neighborhood by maintaining their lawns and gardens, the Woods HOA is implementing a Yard of the Month award! Two homes will be selected by the Yard of the Month committee each month. Winning yards will be provided with a decorative yard sign for display indicating their achievement. Homeowners will be eligible to win Yard of the Month once a quarter. 

We will be posting the winners each month on our Facebook page, via the Yahoo email group and on the HOA website. 

9-1-1 centers in Round Rock and the entire capital region can now receive SMS text messages.If you can’t call 9-1-1, then you can text to 9-1-1 if your phone or smart device uses one of the four major cellphone service providers —Verizon Wireless, AT&T Mobility, Sprint and T-Mobile.

Text to 9-1-1 is especially beneficial to those who are hearing- or speech-impaired, but residents should only text 9-1-1 when calling 9-1-1 is unsafe or not possible. Examples include when:

• Callers can’t speak due to a threat, illness or medical condition
• Callers have poor reception and can only send text messages
• Phone lines and cellphone towers are overwhelmed, and only texts can get through

There are some important things to remember about Text to 9-1-1, said Leigh Carrico, the Round Rock Police Department’s Communications Manager.

“Residents need to remember that Text to 9-1-1 does not automatically give us a location,” Carrico said. “Also, if you don’t get a response, your text might not have gotten through. It’s important to remember to call when you can, and save texting 9-1-1 for when you can’t.

”The new service is available for Williamson County, as well as Bastrop, Blanco, Burnet, Caldwell, Fayette, Hays, Lee, Llano, and Travis counties.

Additional details on the new service area available from the Capital Area Council of Governments (CAPCOG), which unveiled the new service Oct. 4.
