Pool Volunteer Needed
/in Crier, Pool News, Village Green, Volunteers /by VGCA Pool ManagerAs 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:
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.
Email me at [email protected]
Thank you in advance!

Santa needs lifeguards….
/in Crier, Village Green, Volunteers /by VGCA Pool ManagerSanta is going to be busy the next couple of weeks…but keep in mind he will need lifeguards to staff our Village Green Community Association pool this upcoming season. It’s never too early to get certified or to get your name on our candidate list.
If you are interested in being a lifeguard at our pool, please send Donnie a txt (757-768-9326) or email [email protected].
Lifeguards will need to be at least 15 yrs old and certified. Please check with the YMCA, Riverside Fitness Center, and/or the Red Cross for classes during the Winter/Spring.

Please ensure you plan accordingly with a wrapped gift with your child’s name on it and drop it off at 657 VGP by Wednesday, December 8. This helps to keep things organized and full of holiday spirit. Please keep the presents to under $20 as well. Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Call for Volunteers for Treasurer and Rental Coordinator
/in Uncategorized /by VGCA Crier EditorAs many of us would agree this is one in a million neighborhood. The one thing that sets it apart from so many others is the number of volunteers we have to help make things happen and keep everything going. We come to rely on those people day in and day out but there comes a time when the torch must be passed. Pete Fry has served as Treasurer for as long as anyone can remember but now, we need a new neighbor to step up and fulfil that role. It doesn’t take much time, or so I’m told, to be the Treasurer. He is even willing to share his experience and knowledge to help get the right person going.
We will also be looking for a new Clubhouse Rental Coordinator. Mrs. Mary Milton has faithfully served in this capacity but starting the new year will be stepping down. Her efforts have greatly served the Village Green with many celebrations, and she has our everlasting thanks.
If not for the volunteers in the neighborhood, then hardly anything would be possible to accomplish. If you would like to volunteer for either of these roles specifically or to volunteer in general, please let the board know. As always, they can be reached by email at [email protected] or you can reach out to me at [email protected].
