8 days of progress with the pool

/in , , , /by

Many volunteers have been involved to get the pool ready for this season.  Here is a short clip of the progress that has been made in the past 8 days!

Thank you to all that have helped and if you haven’t joined pool yet, please consider doing so.  It helps support our most rewarding asset.

Parents — please remind your children to keep our park clean.

I am one of the volunteers for Village Green Community Association but more importantly a parent of two boys that use the park regularly.  After finding the park littered with water bottles, empty bags of chips, and used napkins I had a talk with my boys.  They were not the source of the trash but I asked them to model appropriate behavior for other children in the park.

I am asking all parents that have children (no matter what age) who use our park to remind them to pickup after themselves.  Also have them respect the park, the equipment, and surrounding areas.  Working up at the pool for many hours the past 3-4 weeks, I have seen actions by preteens and teens that indicate to me that the VGCA park and property are not being respected.  The families before us have maintained VGCA property so our families can enjoy today and in the future.

I spent 10 mins of my morning picking up litter in the park.  There are trash cans in the park — please have your children use those.

Thank you.
