Be a Part of the Solution! Take a moment to think about some of the things that helped you to decide to move to Chantilly Highlands.

Whatever your reasons, we need residents to help keep those things that make our community so great by get-ting involved. This does not mean hours and hours or extra work each week! Usually volunteers do their thing
for a couple of hours or so each month, some-times quarterly. Maybe you only want to
help with one event, such as the spring egg hunt. The point is, we need more community involvement. This could be a great way to get to know your neighbors better, or spend time volunteering as a
family! Have your Bunko group (or other social group) sign up together! Volunteer
with old friends or meet some new ones!
Join one of our committees (see page 11 for a listing and brief description and contacts), volunteer at one of our community events, attend the monthly board meeting on the first Wednesday of the month to learn what is happening, or run for one of the Board posi-tions for which elections will be held at our annual meet-ing on Thursday, January 20, at 8 PM in the Community Center. At the very least vote at our annual meeting or send in your proxy vote (see page 3).

The Board welcomed Lucy Chen, CHHA’s new bookkeeper.
On behalf of the Chantilly Highlands Dolphins Committee (DSTC), Martha MacDonald reported that the swim team is in excellent financial condition and that the 2011 budget had been submitted for Board review and approval.

With Black Friday just around the corner, a few remind-ers can mean the difference between enjoying a safe shop-ping excursion and becoming a victim. If the young adults in your house head to the malls with their friends, take a few minutes to review some safety tips:
Dress casually and comfortably.
Avoid shopping alone.
Be alert at all times, especially when leaving busi-nesses.
Park close to the store in well-lit spaces.
Have your keys in hand before returning to your vehi-cle.
As you approach the car, check to see if anyone is hid-ing underneath, next to, or inside.
Lock the car when you get in & leave right away.
Keep a eye on your purse or wallet while shopping.
Keep your cell phone in your pocket instead
Be Alert for Deer Be on the lookout for deer as you travel the roadways
this fall, and review this information with the young driv-ers in your household. During deer breeding season, Oc-tober through December, adult deer are highly mobile. They are especially active from pre-dawn to mid-morning and from dusk to early evening. These periods of deer activity correspond with traveling commuters, as well as students en route to and from school.
of your purse. If your purse does get stolen you can still call the police.
Use credit cards safely. Keep your receipts, guard your PIN numbers, and reconcile your statements.
Report any suspicious activity or person(s) to the Fairfax County Police at (703) 691-2131. Most malls have security personnel that will escort you to your ve-hicle upon request. Be alert, and be safe!

Have you joined the PTA/PTSA yet? Reasons to join:
Studies show that both schools and students perform better when parents are involved in their children’s schools. Joining the PTA is an easy way to participate and help your children and schools be successful.
The National PTA is the largest and oldest child advocacy organization in the country. As stipulated in its mission state-ment, the PTA speaks for all children enabling them to reach and exceed their potential. Your school’s PTA provides a valuable and vital communications link between parent and school.
The PTA supports student and teacher initiatives philosophi-cally and monetarily. This fact is even more today than ever. Given the harsh economic realities we face, i.e., drastically reduced budgets, PTAs financial contributions make a huge difference.
For more information visit your school’s PTA online:
Oak Hill http://www.oakhillpta.org/
Franklin Middle School http://www.fcps.edu/FranklinMS/PTAMEMBERSHIP.html
Chantilly High School http://chantillyhsptsa.org

Nearly one-half of your energy budget is spent on heating and cooling so consider the following:
For safety, comfort and energy efficiency, schedule an ap-pointment to have a qualified, licensed natural gas contrac-tor perform a thorough inspection of your heating system, including the furnace, water heater, all pilot and burner chambers, venting systems and thermostats.
Replace your air/furnace filter every month during the heat-ing season to maintain the safe and efficient operation of your heating equipment. Use your gas bill as a reminder.
Use the Low or Warm settings on your water heater – never turning it above 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
Caulk, weather-strip and insulate openings where air infil-trates your home. The most common places where air es-capes include doors, attics, windows, plumbing penetrations and electrical outlets.
Set thermostats comfortably low in the winter and com-fortably high in the summer. Consider installing a pro-grammable thermostat.
Taking showers instead of baths, washing full loads of dishes and using cold water for full loads of laundry can help to reduce hot water use.
If you are replacing appliances, look for the ENERGY STAR label for efficiency ratings.
Never use your oven or range top to heat your home, as it could result in a house fire or carbon monoxide poisoning.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless and toxic gas. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Com-mission recommends putting CO detecting alarms outside the bedrooms in each separate sleeping area of your home. Replace batteries at least twice each year and change the batteries in your smoke alarms, too.
If you have a wood-burning fireplace have it cleaned by a reputable chimney sweep at least annually (more frequently if you burn a lot of wood in one season).
Clean gutters and test downspouts to ensure proper drainage from the roof.
Turn off the water supply to outdoor hose faucets and drain. Drain and store outdoor hoses.
Store/cover outdoor furniture and grill.

As you make your holiday travel plans in the coming months, keep the following suggestions in mind so you don’t become a statistic.
DO"S AND "DON'T"S TO PREVENT HOME BURGLARIES
DO make your home look like you're there by using light timers—indoor and exterior.
DO have good locks. A high quality, one-inch deadbolt lock on every outside door is a basic requirement.
DON'T leave your home unlocked, even for a brief trip to the store or a visit to the neighbor across the street.
DON'T hide a key outside your home. Leave the extra key with a trusted neighbor or friend. If you have dead-bolt cylinder locks you must use a key to lock the door, and can't possibly lock yourself out.
DON'T put a name or address tag on your house or car keys. That's an open invitation to an unwelcome visitor, should you every lose your keys.
DO plug a radio into a timer set to go on when you're away. Set the radio to all-talk station, leave the volume low, and give a would-be burglar the impression you're talking to someone.
WATCH OUT! Be alert for strangers in your neighborhood! So many bur-
glaries could be stopped or prevented if only more peo-ple would report suspicious happenings.
If your doors or windows look as if they've been tampered with, notify the police. Ask the neighbor who's watching your home while you're gone to check it carefully for you.
Notify the police immediately of any suspicious people, trucks or cars in the neighborhood. Don't worry about being a nuisance. Your police department will welcome your call and the opportunity to prevent a burglary.
Vandalism to homes, automobiles and other property is a major problem throughout Fairfax County.
To report something or someone suspicious, use the Fair-fax County Police Department non-emergency number, 703-691-2131. For events that are life-threatening or immediately damaging to property, call 9ll.
When You Should Call the Police Whenever you observe suspicious events, even though
you may not be the only person observing them, call the police.
Never think that the next person will do what you should do. The police department would rather get numerous calls on the same event than none at all.
Often citizens fail to call because they are not sure if what they see or hear is suspicious. If you are in doubt, call the police immediately. Don't wait to talk it over with friends or neighbors. Valuable police response time is lost this way.

TRAVEL HELP FROM VDOT Before you leave for your next trip, check the
weather and road conditions in Virginia at www.vdot.virginia.gov: the Travel Center section has winter driving tips, which might be a good review for both new and experienced drivers; the Info Center provides various infor-mation, including contact numbers to report unsafe conditions, such as blind or poorly marked intersections, slick or icy roads. You may also call the Highway Helpline at (800) 367-ROAD.
Another useful website is www.511virginia.org. Their toll-free 511 phone service and this website features tools to help you get around. To get started, sign up for a personalized My 511 Control Room today — it'll let you see live traffic cameras, receive free mobile alerts and lots more!
Food Safety for Your Holiday Meals For advice on food handling and safety for your holiday meals, go to
foodsafety.gov.
Don't be concerned about "bothering" your police depart-ment because you won't be. Don't dwell on any possi-ble embarrassment you might feel if your call about a suspicious person or event should prove to be un-founded. Think instead of what could have happened had you not called. You, your loved ones, friends or neighbors could become the victims of a criminal act.
CALL YOUR POLICE DEPARTMENT FOR CRIME PREVENTION SERVICES
The Fairfax County Police Department offers a wide range of free crime prevention services to citizens. They include steps you can take to avoid being the vic-tim of crime against property. The services are free and appointments may be made by calling the Police Dis-trict Station nearest your home.
OTHER TIPS Have a neighbor get your mail & newspapers, or issue a
vacation stop for them. Put your cell phone number on luggage tag so it can’t be
traced back to your home address DON’T announce any vacations or trips on your
Facebook page, at least not until after you’ve returned.
