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].
