Removable steps to be added to the VGCA pool this year…

We have had several requests to add steps to the pool over the past few years. We have ordered a set like these pictured and will be adding them before Memorial Day. We went removable steps that were cost effective since we host swim meets and our swim team uses the pool quite regularly.

Village Green Community Yard Sale is May 11th

Hello, neighbors! We are now two weeks out from our neighborhood yard sale on May 11, so I hope you’re digging through your garages and cleaning out those closets! The more participation we have overall, the better we can attract customers! Remember to get your yard sale permits from the city, and please let me know if you need any assistance or have any questions. 😊

HRA pool usage this summer

As in years past, Hampton Roads Academy will be using our pool on Tuesdays and Thursday from June 18 through August 15 between 1:30pm and 3:30pm. We will have an extra lifeguard on staff during those two hours and have capped the number of campers to 50 swimmers this year. The funds made from this agreement help pay for the operation of the pool.

New grill for the pool

Connor helped me put together the new grill for the pool. We are looking forward to using it for the School’s Out Pool Party in June!

Village Green Community Yard Sale will be on May 11th

It looks like May 11th was the winner for the yard sale date, so let’s go ahead and plan for that! I will place notices on local sites and put up some signs.

Please note: all residents will need a permit from the city. They cost $5 (personal or cashier’s check, NO CASH) and require proof of Newport News residency like a government-issued ID with address or a utility bill. Information about where to mail or deliver your application, as well as links to print the application, can be found at the included link. If anyone needs help printing an application, let me know and I can drop one off to you. https://www.nngov.com/639/Garage-Rummage-Sale-Permit-Applications

Pool filters get a make-over for 2019!

When swimming in our crystal clear pool later this summer its because of to the time/effort put in by Justin Gradwell and Connor Woodruff. They assisted in getting them cleaned out this weekend. Tell them thanks when you see them this Spring/Summer!

We have to remove 900lbs of sand from each filter, replace 8 laterals per filter, and replace O-rings and gaskets on them as well. This will ensure that our filtration system is running optimally. This is done every 4-7 years and is the first time it’s been done on my watch. (Thanks to those who have maintained it in the past…definitely not an easy task.)
