THE COMPASS Volume 8, Issue 11 A newsletter for villages of northpointe NOVEMBER 2017 My daughter started a kindness rocks group! Come join! Northpointe Rocks is a group located in Tomball, TX, and started in the Villages of Northpointe. This group was started as part of #thekindnessrocksproject, so that we may spread kindness to others by sharing our painted rock creations. We invite young and old to participate, as there's no age limit on spreading kindness! Hidden around town, fun, painted rocks are lurking! Keep your eyes open! We invite everyone who joins to paint and hide their own rocks in our area! There is a facebook group for posting and interacting. On the back of your creation please write: Keep or Rehide. Post pics to Northpointe Rocks with a Facebook or hashtag symbol. #NorthpointeRocks Feel free to add people who may want to join, and also upload pics of artwork ready for hiding! Give hints on hidden locations and update if you’ve been lucky enough to find one! Come browse our page and read a story written about the groups creator, my 7 year old daughter, Sierra.
