SBCA SOCIAL, ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED FOR JUNE 6TH, HAS BEEN POSTPONED TO SUNDAY, JUNE 27TH, 3-5 PM, AT OUR OAK TREE PARK AT 1441 OAK TREE. WE'VE BEEN IN A WET WEATHER PATTERN FOR SOME TIME SO THE PARK IS QUITE SOGGY RIGHT NOW. THERE ARE NO BENCHES OR PICNIC TABLES, SO BRING YOUR OWN CHAIR OR PICNIC BLANKET. WE WILL HAVE SOME CHAIRS AND A FEW TABLES AND A COUPLE OF CANOPIES ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SOME NICE SHADE TREES TOO. THERE WILL ALSO BE LIGHT BITES (FRUIT & A VEGGIE TRAY & BLUE BELL ICE CREAM), COLD WATER AND EXTRA COOLERS WITH ICE IF YOU WANT TO BRING SOMETHING TO DRINK THAT NEEDS TO BE KEPT COOL. THIS IS JUST AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET TOGETHER AND ADMIRE THE WORK OF OUR VOLUNTEERS WHO HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS PARK SINCE JANUARY. LET'S HOPE FOR GOOD WEATHER!!
SBCA ADOPTED A PARK ON THE NORTH END OF OAK TREE, CLOSE TO LONG POINT, AT 1441 OAK TREE. iT IS A REALLY BEAUTIFUL TRIANGULAR PATCH OF GRASS WITH A COUPLE OF SPECTACULAR TREES. VOLUNTEERS WORK ON EITHER THE SECOND TUESDAY OR THE FOURTH SATURDAY OF EVERY MONTH. WE'RE MEETING AT 8 AM NOW SINCE IT'S GETTING HOT AND WORK A COUPLE OF HOURS. IT ISN'T DIFFICULT WORK AND EVERYONE CAN JUST DO WHAT THEY ARE CAPABLE OF DOING. THE MAIN THING IS TO BE THERE AND SUPPORT ONE ANOTHER AND APPRECIATE WHAT CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED WITH A LITTLE BIT OF EFFORT AND THE SUPPORT OF A FEW RESIDENTS.
Now that summer is upon us, the weeds and grass are growing and we will need to mow Oak Tree Park regularly. Probably once a month, the park volunteers will bring their own equipment and will mow. If you are willing to mow & edge as a donation to our park effort, please let me know so we can schedule a date. Another option is to donate a mow by paying your yard man to mow for us or by donating to the SBCA Oak Tree Park Fund and we will get our guy to do it. It will cost us $60 to get it mowed & edged. If you get a better price, let me know!!
WE ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR WAYS TO ENGAGE THE COMMUNITY SO IF YOU HAVE AN IDEA FOR AN EVENT OR AN OPEN HOUSE, PLEASE LET US KNOW!!

Spring Branch Civic Association is an established neighborhood comprised of 837 single family homes (per HAR neighborhood information) in the following subdivisions: Bunker Hill Forest (Sec. 1 & 2), Century Oaks, Long Point Woods (Sec. 1, 2 & 3), Spring Branch Woods (Sec. 1, 2 & 3) and Spring Manor Town Houses, all conveniently located within the Spring Branch area of Houston, Texas. We are situated north of Interstate 10, west of Blalock, east of Gessner, and south of Long Point. This site was established to be a source of information on our community.
Our convenient location to popular upscale shopping venues such as Memorial City Mall, CityCentre and the Galleria as well as easy access to the Memorial City Medical Center along with award-winning SBISD schools makes our area very desirable for families. The overall Spring Branch area continues to revitalize with the renovation of older homes, construction of newer homes and patio homes, and other residential and commercial development.
This is a civic association (an organization whose official goal is to improve neighborhoods through volunteer work by its members and dues are voluntary), not a Homeowners Association (a corporation that provides services, regulates activities, etc. and dues are mandatory). Our elected volunteer Board Members carefully study, discuss, and take appropriate action of issues brought to our attention involving our community and within our power to keep our neighborhood great. However, we cannot do this alone. SBCA needs not only your membership but also your participation in the community.
Please consider joining the Spring Branch Civic Association. Your $20 annual dues help us maintain communication to preserve our community. The membership fees cover the costs of the community newsletter, the SBCA website, an Annual Meeting and social events throughout the year to get to know our neighbors.
