Hello Plantation Colony Residents!
Your new neighborhood reps are excited to represent you this year. One of our main goals is to improve communication in the neighborhood, and to encourage everyone to meet and know your neighbors. In an effort to enable us to communicate better with each other, we would like to create a new directory. This information will help you know who your neighbors are, and enable you to contact each other when need be.
If you would like to be a part of the directory, please fill in the information below and return it to 5306 Rebel Ridge Drive. There will be a box by the front door for you to drop it in. The other way to get the information to us is by email. We have created an email for Plantation Colony residents to contact the reps. The email is: plantationcolony@gmail.com. You are welcome to email us with the information below if you so choose.
Name(s):_________________________________________________________
Address:__________________________ Home Ph. No. _____________________
Work or Cell Ph. _____________________ _______________________________
Email: ____________________________ _______________________________
_____ Yes! I’d like to be a “link” in the Plantation Colony chain.
We realize that most homes have multiple cell phones and emails. Please feel free to put more than one if you’d like, just label whose it is.
Second, we would like to begin a communication chain. This would consist of a main person being the beginning of the chain. Ideally, there will be a contact person for each cul-de-sac, and a contact person for approx. 15 homes on the three main streets (Plantation Colony, Rebel Ridge (the middle part), and Cannons Point. This person will be a “link” in the chain and will be responsible for sending any information sent to them on to their group of neighbors. This will ensure that the entire neighborhood will receive important information as soon as it comes to our attention. Obviously, the easiest way to do this will be by email. We do realize that some of you may not have a computer nor access to one, so don’t worry. We will make sure that you get a phone call with the information.
We now have a blog site exclusively for Plantation Colony residents. This blog site will be a great way for us to let you know of upcoming events and give you pertinent information. The blog is http://www.plantationcolony.blogspot.com.

Welcome to Plantation Colony
PLANTATION COLONY: SAFETY IS KEY
The year is under way, and as neighborhood reps, we are excited about getting the whole neighborhood involved in activities!
We want to make the Plantation Colony Subdivision a group of families that are united by the desire to raise our families in a safe and secure environment. To do this, it takes everyone's help.
Recently, the City of Sugar Land posted the following information in regards to keeping yourself and your family safe.
Situational Awareness
Be alert when going out, whether it’s to get the morning paper, a quick trip to the grocery store, or a day of shopping. Strive to be aware of your surroundings at all times.
Did you look out the peephole before you opened the front door?
Did you look to the left and right as you stepped off the porch?
Were there any cars parked in the street in front of your home or the neighbors that looked out-of-place?
When you are returning home from work, or being out, are you checking your mirrors for vehicles that may be following?
Is there a strange person standing in the neighbor’s driveway?
If you are focused on the plans for the rest of the day, weekend, or special event, your mind is distracted, and a window of opportunity is open for the criminals. Time to slam that window shut. If you are relaxed, yet aware of your surroundings, you are better able to recognize a threat and react to it with plenty of time. Distance is your friend. See the threat, react to it, and evade to safety. Too many victims have said, “The bad guy(s) came out of nowhere.”
Be Alert!
Play the “what if” game to develop a response to different situations so you remain in control. As with any skill, it takes time to develop this technique. Once learned, it can be honed to a sharp edge, giving you a sense of confidence and peace of mind. Just as a skilled driver can outperform the novice, the learning curve can be fun. Your ability to “see” what others miss will be amazing. Remember, if you are caught off-guard, you lose!
