You may have seen us on your evening walks, bike rides, or just driving by, at 721 and 719 VGP. Our Fit Club has been meeting for over 5 months and collectively have lost over 25 pounds!
Our typical workouts are in a circuit HIIT form using dumbbells, kettlebells, slam balls, battle ropes, and bodyweight. We also usually do a long walk or hike over the weekend. Between everyone who participates, we have plenty of equipment so there is no need for new participants to bring anything – just show up!
Our group currently ranges in age from 30s-50s and we vary greatly in athletic ability. Every workout can be tailored to each individual’s ability. We all start somewhere on our fitness journeys!
We meet on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s at 7pm and Saturday at 9am (sometimes earlier). If you are looking to get into a fitness routine please contact Stephanie GianDonato via Facebook or text (240-672-2747). We would love to have some new participants.
Are you a personal trainer? We would love to have you come by to teach us a thing or two!
There is zero cost and only confidence to gain in our group!
Due to an inability to fully staff the pool with lifeguards on Tuesday, Aug 25th — the pool will be closed the entire day.
We plan to be open the rest of the week as scheduled.
Location: VGCA Clubhouse
Proposed Agenda:
As the summer is creeping towards an end and with more VGCA Rec/Pool members using the pool this year, I wanted to remind everyone of the pool rules.
First and foremost, please enjoy yourself. Secondly, please abide by the Phase 3 restrictions and practice 10ft of social distancing while on the pool deck and in the pool. And finally, please read the pool rules and understand they are in place to provide a safe and enjoyable pool for our members to enjoy. Please click below for specific details.
If you have any questions a lifeguard can clarify or you can reach out to our pool manager at [email protected].

| Due to last week’s Tropical Storm Isaias, high volumes of storm debris may delay bulk collections in your neighborhood. Storm debris is being collected separately from regular bulk waste. Be sure to place your regular bulk waste out for your regular collection day. Tree contractor debris is prohibited for curb pickup. The tree contractor is responsible for disposing of the debris. To review the bulk collections schedule visit the Solid Waste Division website. A portion of your street may be collected one day, while the rest of the street may be collected on another day. Storm debris is being picked up seven days a week. To ensure Public Works provides the most efficient waste collection services follow these guidelines: Set out storm debris as soon as possible.Separate vegetative storm debris from other bulk waste. Be sure to place the debris three feet from other objects (such as vehicles, fences, other bulk waste, carts or fencing).Do not to set out any items under power lines, trees or any low hanging objects. Park cars in driveways versus the street, when possible. For more information call 757-933-2311. |

We will cook hamburgers and hot dogs, have cornhole, volleyball in the water, and other activities. Bring a dish and your favorite beverage(s). If you would rather bring your own food (not for sharing), feel free to do that too.

We were able to open the pool only 2 hours later than normal thanks to the hard work of our lifeguards and my assistant pool manager, Connor.
This young man decided to get with his brother and start a flag football team. With the approval of the VGCA Board they have been practicing on VGCA property under the power lines for 1.5 weeks now. The group had their first game on Sat, Aug 8 at 10am. Parents lined the sidelines and cheered them on too. Ages range from 7-13 yrs old and its boys and girls. If you live in VGCA and have children interested in joining, please stop by around 10am on the days they practice…usually 3-4 days a week. Games will be on Saturdays from what they have told me.
Just another thing that makes Village Green a great place to live!
