Pool news for Tuesday, June 18th (HRA, diving board, and stairs)

HRA campers will be sharing the pool with us tomorrow and Thursday from 1:30-3:30pm. A 3rd lifeguard will be on duty during this time period.

Also, due to the storm tonight, we were not able to put the stairs or diving board back in the pool after the canceled swim meet. I will try to get a couple of volunteers to do it Tuesday night.

Damaged area in park has been reported to pool management company.

UPDATE: The pool chemical company will be sending over a crew to fix the area this weekend. In the meantime, please be careful in this area.

The pool chemical supply company delivered chlorine on June 13 and turned around in this area. Please be careful when using this area as the ruts are quite deep.

We have reported the issue to our pool management company and requested for it to be fixed.

The pool will OPEN Friday, June 14th

We were not scheduled to be open on June 14th since it was a school day. But since NNPS shortened the school year by a day and our pool management company agreed to cover the lifeguards, we are excited to announce we will be open on June 14th.

NOTE: There will be a Summer Pool Party (6-10pm) on June 14 being hosted by VGCA and is for all residents. Please RSVP by June 11th by going to https://vgnn.org/rsvp

Memorial Day weekend at the pool

Crystal clear water!
New chairs, lounges, tables, and umbrella.
The new grill works great. Feel free to use it. Some of the kids were treated to hamburgers and hot dogs.

Pool opens at 11am on Saturday, May 25th

These are the pool hours between May 25th and June 15th. I will be up at the pool from 11am-1pm tomorrow to hand out the remaining pool passes. If you haven’t received yours yet or if you want to join VGCA as a Recreation Member, please stop by.

Also, guards will be checking wristbands at the gate this year. Please present your wristband, name, and address.

We will be open Tuesday thru Sunday beginning June 18th. Also, we will be sharing our pool with HRA campers Tuesdays and Thursday during the summer (1:30pm-3:30pm) as in years past.

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.

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.
