  • Concession stand will be open during breaks.
    • Sell pre-packaged foods, snacks, and drinks.
    • Staffed by young volunteers.
    • All proceeds will go to pay for the new benches on the pool deck.
  • HRA will be using our pool on Tues/Thurs from 1:30-3:30pm BUT will be limited to 30 HRA swimmers per hour.
  • Swim team will have meets against other pools on these evenings:

VGCA Membership

Join TodayNow is the perfect time to join the VGCA with a Recreation Membership. Not only do you get usage of the pool, pickle ball court, and basketball court, but if you sign up before April 30, you will receive 5 free pool passes.

Not a swimmer, pickle baller, or dribbler? You can still help to keep the neighborhood owned areas looking nice, post that special message on the marquee, get discounts on pool or the newly renovated clubhouse rentals, access to community exclusive events, and have a voice in your community by joining with an Association Membership.

Want to contribute to the community further, why not consider volunteering? Not only do you get that feel good feeling by helping to make the neighborhood a better place, it’s also a great opportunity to meet fellow neighbors. Maybe you’ll meet your new best friend.
