The warm weather has come early this year, and the Scofield Farms pool is now open for residents to enjoy! Here are some documents related to the pool that may come in handy:
2012 Easter Egg Hunt Was A Success
Over 175 people attended the neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 7, at Scofield Farms Park. Many children and their families and friends enjoyed hunting for eggs, taking photos with the Easter Bunny, and the petting zoo. A big thank you to Laura Nattinger and Lisa Griggs for organizing this fun event, and Jenny Walker for providing the Easter Bunny photos! These types of gatherings are part of what makes Scofield Farms a great place to live.

UFCU Grand Opening Celebration – April 14
Our new neighbor, University Federal Credit Union, will host a Grand Opening Celebration on Saturday, April 14 from 10 am to 1 pm. The event will feature refreshments, a $50 incentive for new accounts, and a chance to meet University of Texas head football coach Mack Brown from 10:30 – 11:30 am. Please see the note from UFCU below regarding the event and how it may affect our neighborhood:
As you know, we are having our Grand Opening on April 14th with Mack Brown. We anticipate quite a large crowd. We have arranged to have 2 APD officers on-site for crowd control as well as a shuttle service that will be picking up members from the nearby ACC campus. Parking will not be available at our site. We will be encouraging all event goers to park at the ACC campus. I wanted you to be aware that even with our good intentions; there may be some that will park on the street on Scofield and surrounding areas. We do anticipate that this will be kept to a minimum.
Please see the UFCU Web site for further details.

The board mtgs are chock full of agenda items and would never allow us ample time for a robust playground discussion. Thus we are having the stand alone session on 03/24.

2012 Scofield Farms Neighborhood Wide Garage Sale
Greetings Scofield!
In collaboration with the The Ridge at Scofield Farms neighborhood wide garage sale, the Scofield Farms neighborhood wide garage sale will be held Saturday, March 24th starting at 7AM located at your home (driveway, yard). It will NOT be held at a central location. Be ready for early-birds!!!
Advertising in the Statesman will be paid by the HOA. We will be advertising in the actual newspaper that gets delivered to doorsteps each morning AND online at www.statesman.com. Advertisements on Craigslist, eBay classifieds and garagesalefinder.com (a map-based website) are also being pursued.
Our goal is to help each customer locate each garage sale easily and quickly.
Jenny will post signs along Metric & at the entrances. To get as much customer traffic as possible, the Ridge Social Committee is considering posting signs at Howard Lane & Scofield Ridge Parkway, Metric & Parmer AND at the Mopac frontage road and Scofield Ridge Parkway.
Please email Jenny Walker at jenny@realtyaustin.com and put “garage sale” in the subject line. Provide Jenny with your name and address by March 17th if you would like to participate in the neighborhood wide garage sale. (please do not use yahoo email as I don’t check it:)
Happy Selling!
Jenny Walker

Scofield ROA Playground Re-build Input Mtg
Hello neighbors,
Shelley Karn, ROA president, has asked me and fellow board member Paul Maine to take the lead in getting input from interested individuals on issues and priorities related to the playground re-build process.
So the next step is to have a face to face input session with interested parties. Based on that session and electronic input, the board will hopefully have adequate data to assist us as we project a direction. Accordingly we are asking all individuals interested in providing ideas and input on the playground renovation project to participate in the following meeting:
