In-person membership drive on Tues, June 16 @ 5-630pm

/in , , /by

Our VGCA and VGCA Rec membership numbers are down considerably this year. To help increase that, we will be holding a membership drive in front of the VGCA Park on Tuesday, June 16 @ 5-630pm.

To help with social distancing, we highly recommend filling out the form and paying online. If you would rather not be charged the PayPal fees, then please have your form pre-filled and provide your check/cash to us at the table.

Please ensure 6ft of social distancing if there is a line.

If you plan on using the pool next week, please send your membership info in as soon as possible as we anticipate opening Wednesday, June 17 (more coming on that this evening).

VGCA membership drive continues

Did you enjoy the food trucks in the park? How about the DJ? Those things are possible due to VGCA. Consider supporting the association for as little as $75 for a year. Also consider supporting our greatest asset and become a pool member.

The common areas under the power lines, the park, the playground, the pool, and the clubhouse all belong to the VGCA.  These assets help increase property value but more importantly help make Village Green a wonderful neighborhood to live in.

We have an online payment solution again this year and will accept cash/check too.

Please go to https://vgnn.org/join for additional info and/or to pay online.

5 free pool passes has been extended

/in , , /by

In anticipation of opening June 19 (based on State guidelines/restrictions), we are extending our offer for 5 free pool passes to anyone that purchases their pool passes by June 15 this year. Additional information can be found at vgnn.org/join

We will follow the State guidelines for opening and have been working closely with our pool inspector from the Peninsula Health Department.

We are planning to have a VG Swim Team Boot Camp this year instead of having a VG Swim Team due to restrictions. More information about this will be coming out soon.

Please note that if we open on June 19th we have only lost 14% of the operating time for the pool this season. At this time, we do not plan to offer discounted rates. We hope you plan to support our neighborhood pool and the volunteers who have been getting it ready and will be managing it this year.

Volunteers needed for VGCA pool prep on Sun, May 31st

/in , , , /by

On Sunday, May 31st we will begin the process of preparing our pool in order to be inspected and possibly opened this season. If we can’t get the volunteers we need, then the VGCA will re-evaluate the need/desire to open the pool for the season. Please come out and help us get the pool ready.

The first shift will start around 9:30am, as I have had some interest from two families to start early and we can always use more volunteers. I will provide updates via Facebook around noon so others know where we stand.

What’s not done by the morning volunteers will need to be done in the afternoon beginning around 2pm. We will need the deck cleared so we can remove the covers at 4pm.

For removing the pool covers at 4pm, I will need 7-10 people to assist. If you have experience removing the covers from years ago, I could use some advice/guidance.

We need volunteers to help with these tasks:

  • Use weed-eaters around the outside and inside of the pool fence.
  • Trim bushes and small trees around pool area.
  • Blow, rake, and bag leaves from outside and inside the pool deck.
  • Set up the lifeguard stands.
  • Remove all furniture from the lifeguard shack and stack out of the way.
  • Remove baby pool cover.
  • Remove main pool cover.
  • Use pool leaf skimmer to remove debris from the water.

Remember to practice social distancing and consider wearing a mask.

THANK YOU!
