  • Sunday:  9am-12pm
  • Tues-Fri: 8pm-9pm (during lap swim)

This offering is based on someone organizing it and all participants must be VGCA Recreation (Pool) Members.

Adult lap swim 8-9pm begins June 22

/in , , /by

New for this year we are offering adult lap swim from 8-9pm Tuesdays through Friday.  This will begin on June 22.  Swimmers will need to have a swim buddy in order to use the pool since this VGCA will not be staffing lifeguards during this time.  No one under the age of 18 is allowed in the pool area during this time.

I ask that members be considerate and flexible with me as this is something new and we will be making adjustments to the process as I learn more.  For now, please send me a text (757-768-9326) or message me on Facebook to let me know that you have a swim buddy and what day(s) you will be using it for the upcoming week.  There will be no walk-ups at this point.

Requirements are as follows:

  • Notify Donnie via txt 757-768-9326 or Facebook messenger on the day(s) you plan to use it.
  • Must have a swim buddy who will be there the entire time with you.
  • Must be a VGCA Recreation/Pool member.
  • Must be 18yrs or older.
  • No children allowed on deck.
  • Diving board usage and diving from the side is prohibited.
  • Lap swim or exercising in your lane is only activity that is acceptable during this period.
  • No lifeguard on duty, so it will be swim at your own risk.

Our pool will be open the following days/times for Memorial Day weekend:

  • Sat, May 29 11am-8pm
  • Sun, May 30 1pm-8pm
  • Mon, May 30 11am-8pm

As Memorial Day weekend and the 2021 opening of our Village Green pool approaches, the VGCA would like to remind everyone that you must join the Village Green Community Association and the pool in order to enjoy the pool. Any resident of Village Green, whether you rent or own, may purchase a membership.  The easiest way to do this is to go to https://vgnn.org/join and either use the Paypal link (fees apply) or print out the form and turn it in to the green mailbox in the front flower bed at 625 Brandywine Drive.

Donnie Woodruff, the pool manager, and Laura Cvitanovich, the membership chairman, plan to enjoy the holiday weekend with their families and will not be available to process and verify memberships through the weekend.

Although we will continue to accept memberships throughout the summer, if you plan on joining the pool AND using it during the opening weekend, please turn in your paperwork prior to the close of business (5 PM) on Tuesday, May 25. This will ensure that your payment can be processed and your pool bands delivered before the weekend.

Have a safe and happy holiday weekend!
