Pool passes and pool info

For those members that joined the VGCA Pool this year, we will be handing out your pool passes on Tuesday at 5-630pm. Please stop by the membership drive and pick them up.

Also, due to restrictions mandated by the Governor in response to Phase 2 we will implement an online reservation system. There will be no admittance to the pool without your membership wristband as well as your online reservation. Parents will need to explain this to your children that normally just frequent the pool on their own. Once restrictions are lifted, the online reservation process will be removed and we will return back to our normal process.

I plan to have the reservation system online this evening.

Finishing touches on the pool

Dave and Laura Cvitanovich have been a tremendous help in getting the pool ready, finding lifeguards, and overall seeing that we get the pool open this year. There is no doubt we wouldn’t be where we are without their help! There kids are grown and haven’t been on the swim team in many years…truly great neighbors and want to the best for the pool and Village Green.

They stained the picnic table and lifeguard stands yesterday as well as did a few other things around the pool while I took a break from my pool duties.

THANK YOU!

Support our neighborhood and pool by becoming a VGCA member.

VGCA Pool will be used by CGBD for lap swim/practice Mon-Sat 5:30am-10am

With COVID-19 restrictions, many indoor pools remain closed which has left the Coast Guard Blue Dolphins (CGBD) with few pools to practice and perform lap swim in. The VGCA Board was contacted by the CGBD and has agreed to rent pool time to the them. They will be using our pool starting on June 15 between 5:30am and 10am Monday thru Saturday. This is not during our normal operating hours and Coach Amy has agreed to move the Village Green Swim Team Boot Camp to later in the morning (10am-1230pm). This will help offset some of the costs for chemicals this pool season. Traffic and noise will be kept to a minimum as they are well aware this is a residential area. We anticipate this agreement to last through the summer.

VGCA memberships can be paid online

To help with social distancing and to be more convenient for you and our volunteers, we highly recommend filling out the online form and paying via credit card online.

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

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).

Sweet Frog and a movie in the park

Here is the plan for the plan Sweet Frog and a movie in the park on Friday, June 12th:

  • 7pm — Sweet Frog begins selling frozen yogurt
  • 8pm — Trolls 2 World Tour movie begins

If it rains, we will attempt to have the movie on June 19th.

Kona Ice Yorktown and Chicken Stop confirmed for June 19

Thanks to Jenn Greene, we have confirmed Kona Ice Yorktown and Chicken Stop for Friday, June 19th.

  • Kona Ice — 5:30-7pm
  • Chicken Stop — TBD but probably 4-7pm

Bring a chair, social distance as needed, and enjoy the company of your family, friends, and neighbors.

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 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.
