Be part of a great team in our amazing community!

 

Currently, the Village Green Patriots swim team is taking registrations for 4-18 year olds.  We welcome all skill levels!  This is a great way for children to enjoy the water even more, have special swim team “fun practices”, become a team, meet new friends, and learn and improve your child’s swimming.  If you have any questions please fee free to email [email protected] and/or [email protected].

Thank you and we look forward to seeing many of you at the pool this summer!

VGCA Movie Membership Drive Apr 10 @ 7pm in the park

Audra (VGCA events coordinator) and her husband will be putting showing Raya in the park around 7pm on Saturday, April 10th.  A few VGCA board members will be in attendance to field questions and to accept memberships.  Please RSVP by going to Audra’s post on the Village Green Neighbors Facebook group so she knows how much popcorn to prepare.

We will also be able to answer questions about the Village Green swim team.  It’s an excellent way to learn how to swim and/or become a stronger swimmer.  Stop by and enjoy a wonderful evening with some amazing volunteers and neighbors!

VGCA owns nearly 7.5 acres

Did you know that Village Green Community Association (VGCA) owns approximately 7.5 acres in our neighborhood? On that land we have a clubhouse, pool, basketball court, playground equipment, park benches, picnic tables, grills, and split-rail fencing along the neighborhood cut throughs in the inner loops.  These 7.5 acres add to the property value of all our homes and provide much needed green space in a city that is seeing that shrink. We are a volunteer run organization who perform a lot of the maintenance and upkeep on our property. 

VGCA membership dues are very important for the neighborhood as a portion of it pays for items and services that are not donated or must be fixed by skilled workers.

The VGCA membership drive will be starting soon…remember to support VGCA by joining and possibly volunteering some time. The 2021 VGCA Membership form can be found here:  https://vgnn.org/join  

 

Pool season will be here before you know it…

Happy New Year!  After our first snowfall of the year and a second one possibly coming on Sunday, I figured I would remind the pool lovers out there what will be here in a just 4 short months…

With that said…if you are interested in being a lifeguard at our pool, please send me a txt (757-768-9326) or email [email protected].

I am also looking for a couple of adults to help me with the pool this Spring and Summer as we will be self managing again this year since it was such a SUCCESS last year!

 In light of the currently imposed restrictions to gathering size due to COVID-19 by the Governor, we are going to stop accepting runners for the Turkey Trot. We greatly appreciate everyone’s efforts and will leave the registration open for donations. Efforts are still in place to ensure everyone is as safe as possible and still have fun. The best thing is to make sure you bring your mask and wear it until you start the Trot. Thank you everyone for bearing with us and helping to make this event a success still.
