Leaf raking part 2 rescheduled for Sun, Jan 5 1-3pm

Due to the rain Friday and Saturday, we will need to move the leaf raking for the park to Sunday afternoon 1-3pm.

My family has been sick all week, so it’s unlikely we will be able to make it. Hopefully we can get 10-15 volunteers with rakes, blowers (too wet?), and tarps to get the final cleanup completed.

The City plans to do the final leaf pickup beginning January 6th.

Thank you!

Leaf raking part 2 – Jan 4 9am-12pm

The City plans to do the final leaf pickup beginning January 6th. We will need many volunteers to make short work on the park/pool leaf cleanup. Bring rakes, tarps, and/or blowers to help us. Most of the leaves were raked/blown in late November, but we still have some cleanup to do on the leaves that fell since then.

We hope to have many volunteers to make short/easy work for all. We plan to do it from 9am-12pm on Saturday, January 4th.

If anyone wants to get started earlier, please feel free to rake/blow them to the front and leave 18-24″ from the curb for rainwater drainage.

Thank you in advance!

Santa visits Village Green

NNFD Station 6 had a special delivery for some very special children in Village Green on Saturday, Dec 21st. Santa delivered a couple of dozen donuts when he stopped by Station 6 awaiting his ride over in the big red sleigh with lights and sirens on.

Diane, Joy, Cheryl, Amy, and Debi saw that the children had gingerbread houses, pancakes, donuts, and the arrival of a special guest with presents for the little ones. Knowing Santa so well, he told me it really made his Christmas to have so many little ones welcome him with open arms. It was truly amazing and I hear he will be back…

For any parents looking for pics, please email me at [email protected] and I will send you a link to the photos we took.

Santa had the help of some special elves as well…thank you to everyone that made this event happen!

Happy Holidays

Help decorate the VGCA park for the holidays…

We plan to hang ornaments on the VGCA Christmas tree, bows and garland on the Village Green sign, and lights on the tree and bushes near the park.

Bring a dish and your holiday spirit and give us a hand decorating the entrance by the park. VGCA will provide the holiday music, lights, decorations, and hot chocolate for the event.

Dress warm as we will be working outside.

When: 4pm Saturday, Dec 7
