July 4th Celebration
By Sandy Singletary
Once again, Waterwood proved that we can throw a
great party! Participants in the boat parade went all out
this year decorating their boats. We had 7 golf carts
participate this year in the golf cart parade, and we had a
flag win best costume in the costume contest!
Congratulations to all of the winners! We hope that
everyone who participated had a great time.
The fireworks show was outstanding. Twenty minutes of
non-stop explosions! Waterwood continues to have one
of the best fireworks shows on Lake Livingston.
The social committee would like to thank everyone who
donated their time and hard work to make this a special
celebration for all of Waterwood.
Patriotism abounds!

Justin Curren Memorial
Golf Tournament for HAPS
By Teresa Brown
The Justin Curren Memorial Golf Tournament for
Houston Area Parkinson Society (HAPS), held Saturday,
June 24th, was a great success! Over $7000.00 was
raised to support such a worthy charity and to honor the
memory of our beloved friend – Justin Curren. Early rain
did not dampen the spirit of the tournament and at start
time, the weather cooperated with cooler temperatures
and overcast skies. Excitement was in the air!
The course was in beautiful form and with 64 players
(16 teams), the atmosphere was that of fun and friendly
competition. Water holes were everywhere but that
didn’t stop the courageous!
After the tournament, a delicious lunch of brisket and
sausage with all the trimmings provided by Dona Curren
and Andrew Curren was enjoyed by participants,
volunteers, sponsors and special guests. Desserts were
provided by the Women’s Golf Association. That
brisket! Oh. My. Goodness. So amazing!
Congratulations to Ryan Harlow – Closest to the pin

In early January, 2017, the idea of the tournament was
taking form and by March the idea was a reality! In three
short months, the tournament was played! Thank you to
the Curren Family, Waterwood Men’s Golf Association,
HAPS and those that worked tirelessly to get the golf
course in such great shape. Also, thank you to the
volunteers, those that sponsored a hole, all participants
in the tournament, those that donated door prizes, served
on committees, provided golf carts and provided

refreshments. So many of you gave your time and
talents to help with this tournament and it couldn’t have
happened without each of you. What a tribute to our
great friend, Justin.

HAPS and Dona Curren. At the time the big check was
printed we had raised $5770.00. By the end of
tournament, we had raised over $7000.00!

Dear Friends and Neighbors,
What a wonderful neighborhood we live in! The Justin
Curren Memorial Golf tournament was organized in
Justin’s memory to benefit the Houston Area
Parkinson’s Society. A group of friends and neighbors
organized this tournament in a relatively short period of
time and raised over $7000.00 for HAPS.
My family and I would like to thank all of the
organizers, donors, volunteers, sponsors and players who
made the success possible. A special thank you to Steve
and Shirley Morrell and Rick and Teresa Brown. They
worked long and hard to pull this event together. What a
wonderful memorial to Justin benefitting a very worthy
recipient who gives such needed support to those
affected by Parkinson’s.
