Also, here’s a special message from the Yard of the Month Committee:

The judging is done on the first weekend of each month, and the judging is getting really tough!  There are a lot of beautiful yards, and our neighbors are showing a lot of originality and hard work.  We on the Yard of the Month Committee — Ronda Schultz, Leigh Ann Brunson, and Jacob Abdel-Qader, really appreciate nominations from our neighbors!  Please send an email to Ronda at rschultz@austin.rr.com, Leigh Ann at labrunson@sbcglobal.net, or Jacob at faisalabdel@hotmail.com.

2012 4th of July Party at Scofield Farms Pool

From Maria Shelby:

The annual 4th of July pool party will be held on Wednesday, July 4th from 10:30 am to 2 pm.  We will have a multitude of games for the children and door prizes for the parents.  Unfortunately, AFD officials informed me that their fire trucks will not be able available to lead us in a neighborhood parade prior to the event.  However, we will have plenty to do without their presence including water volleyball, watermelon relay races, pie-eating contests, badminton in the grassy area, and the ever popular coin toss in the pool.

In addition, there will be door prizes from Frost Bank, Which Wich, My Fit Foods, tickets to watch the Round Rock Express baseball games, and others to be announced at the event.  In addition, we will have a tattoo parlor. 

The food this year includes grilled hot dogs, chips, watermelon, flavored ice pops, and some type of sweets for dessert.  This is one of the biggest events of the year and we are excited for it to take place!  The weather forecast for next Wednesday is hot and sunny!

Bring your American spirit, family and the kids’ goggles so they can see those coins underwater.  Lastly, bring some folding chairs as we might run out!

New Playground

After many months of planning and work, the new playscape by the pool is open for play as of today (Tuesday, June 19). We anticipate that the children of Scofield Farms will enjoy this fun, safe, and shaded place to play for many years to come!  In the near future, we will extend the perimeter fencing to encircle the entire area and add a gate at the northeast corner to improve safety for families with young children.  Many thanks to Steve Walden and the many other community members involved in this important project for all their time and effort.

“Music for Kids” Summer Concert Series at the Austin Public Library

Please take note of this fun (and free!) family summer music series — several of the performances (specifically, those at the Little Walnut Branch and Milwood Branch) are located close to Scofield Farms.  The following information is provided by the City of Austin:

The City of Austin’s Music Division and the Austin Public Library is
launching a series of summertime music performances for Austin’s youth.

The new six-week summer concert series, “Music for Kids”, will showcase 20 free,
musical performances suited for children, teens and families at library
locations throughout the city.

“The Music Division is thrilled to introduce this summer kids’ program in the
city,” said Don Pitts, Music Program Manager. “This is a great way to
highlight local talent and the positive influence of music on our children,
youth and families.”

Music for Kids, June 13-July 21, will feature Austin singer-songwriters
Lucas Miller, Gina Chavez, Neal Kassanoff and Courtney Sanchez, who will
each perform solo acts at various libraries. The series will also include
popular special guest musicians like Marcia Ball and Guy Forsyth.

Visit www.austintexas.gov/MusicForKids to learn more. These performances are
part of SRP’12, the Library’s summer reading program for youth. For a
