Pool Volunteer Needed

As VGCA continues to self-manage the pool, we are looking for an extra volunteer.  Specifically, I am looking for an adult that can help me with the following:

  • provide guidance and support to lifeguards.
  • answer questions for new and potential members.
  • help monitor pool chemicals and the pumps (very easy to do).

It is a great opportunity to give back to the neighborhood especially for an adult who is up at the pool on a regular basis.  There is very little effort involved but it would help me out during the week when I am working.

Thank you in advance!

End of Summer Pool Party

 

As summer comes to a close, we will have an End of Summer Pool Party on August 28, 2021.  The pool will be open to all Village Green neighbors for this event.

Around 3pm there will be hamburgers, hot dogs, and possibly some other treats will be provided.  Consider donating to the Village Green swim team if you attend and/or grab a bite to eat.

Then roll into the End of Summer Party in the Park that will have Sweet Frog, crafts, and a movie (Disney’s Onward) with popcorn.

Thank you volunteers!

Volunteers are what make this neighborhood great!

Just yesterday, Phil K. volunteered to cut the grass on VGCA property under the power lines adjacent to Crown Point. It had gotten a tall and I am sure was not an easy task.  On top of that it was quite hot and humid.  Thank you!

Thanks to Ryan G. for assisting a neighbor on Prescott Circle and seeing that the underground electrical issue was resolved so we all would be safe.

From all those that do behind the scenes work…THANK YOU! This includes not only the adults in our community but many pre-teen and teenagers as well. Countless hours go into maintain our wonderufl neighborhood!  Village Green has a history of being a tight knit neighborhood and we get things done by volunteering and working together.  It is great to see this wonderful tradition continuing in the Green!

VGCA and our assets would not be possible without the MANY volunteer hours that are put in by our neighbors.  We understand that everyone does not have the ability to volunteer their time so consider joining for just $75/yr as a VGCA member.  This helps with paying electrical, water, and taxes to start but also in providing upgrades to our park, clubhouse, and pool.  Please consider joining at vgnn.org/join

Thank you!!!

Concessions was a success — thank you!!!

We had quite a few volunteers staff the VGCA Concessions Stand this summer during pool hours.  Thank you to all those young workers (ranging in age from 6-14) that helped make it a success!

Their goal was to raise money for our own water cannon to help keep the pool cool during July/August — approximately $200.  In total, they raised $668.05 — $200 of it went to purchase the pump and wiring for the VGCA Water Cannon.  The remaining $468.05 will be donated to the VG Swim Team which most of the volunteers swim for.

Keep this in mind for your young volunteers for next season as I am sure we will be looking for volunteers and a parent or two to help organize and oversee it.

Thank you to everyone that purchased from these young volunteers and a SPECIAL BIG THANK YOU to those young VGCA volunteers that staffed it.  What a great year for our youth and the pool!
