Volunteer Power!

 

This is the busiest time of year for many of our VGCA volunteers that help keep Village Green looking great!  Please keep in mind that VGCA and the Village Green Swim Team are run by 100% volunteers.  Whether signing up for the swim team, inquiring about memberships, or renting the clubhouse/pool please consider we do this as volunteers and try to do our best to respond in a timely manner.

The same thing goes for maintaining the park, the pool, and the common areas under the power lines.  The movies and events up at the park are also all handled by volunteers.  Many of us (and our family members) pull double duty volunteering in various areas in Village Green.

We appreciate your patience as well as your membership.

To all of our volunteers — THANK YOU!

Looking for a way to help out?  Please contact one of the committee leads or email the board at [email protected].

VGCA Membership Drive 2023

The Village Green Community Association membership drive is under way – be sure to join in our summer fun this year by joining the neighborhood Association and Pool! Pool memberships will remain at the same low rates they have been for years. The pool has always been the heart of the neighborhood, especially for our children, and this summer will be no different. The swim team will be hitting the water in June, and the snack bar which is managed by our VG youth will be new and improved.

Our VGCA Events Coordinator also has many events planned for youth and adults.  Help support those events and the maintenance of our park and common areas for just $75 a year (pool memberships are more).

5 free one-time use pools will be provided to those who register for pool memberships by April 30th.  Get your passes now!

Membership flyers were delivered in March.  You may fill out the flyer and return it to the green mailbox at 625 Brandywine, or you can link to the online membership form and pay via Paypal (fees apply).
