Date: Tuesday, November 9
Time: 6:30 – 8 pm
Location: Pillow Elementary, 3025 Crosscreek Dr.NSCNA will hold a general membership meeting on Tuesday, November 9. The agenda will primarily cover two main topics.
First, we will select a five-member Nominating Committee. Every January, we elect a new Board of Directors and Officers for the year. The Nominating Committee is responsible for recommending candidates for these positions, so they are an important influence on the future direction of our association. We have collected names of some people interested in serving on this committee, and will open the floor to further nominations at the meeting.
We also will be receiving a report from the Bylaws Committee, with recommendations for bylaws changes, and a vote on the proposal. Notification of the proposed changes was sent by postal mail to all NSCNA members last week. You can download a copy of the proposed changes here.

The weather is beautiful and now is a great time to plant some native plants in celebration of Texas Native Plant Week, which starts on Monday. Planting native trees, shrubs and flowers can help conserve water, improve water quality and provide habitat. These native plants also attract and benefit wildlife, particularly birds and butterflies.Here are some simple steps you can take to participate in Native Plant Week:
- Plant a native tree in your yard or at your place of business.
- Plant a native garden for butterflies, hummingbirds and other wildlife.
- Attend native plant events, plant sales and educational presentations.
- Visit demonstration gardens in your area for ideas and inspiration.
The City of Austin’s Texas Native Plant Week website has more information on local things you can do this week, including volunteering, some native plant learning opportunities, and other plant and wildlife resources.
