VGCA Turkey Trot 2020 Fundraiser

*****ATTENTION*****

 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.

 

Sign up for the first annual VGCA Turkey Trot!  It will be held on November 21st in Village Green.  Adult 5K registrations for $15 and kids 1 mile fun run for $5. Sign in will start at 10:00 outside by the club house. The kids 1 mile fun run will start at 10:30 and be a single lap around the Village Green loop. The Adult 5k will start at 11:00 with 2 trips around the neighborhood with the Minuteman/Crown Pointe Loop. A little run for the betterment of the community.

Reminder on pool rules

As the summer is creeping towards an end and with more VGCA Rec/Pool members using the pool this year, I wanted to remind everyone of the pool rules.

First and foremost, please enjoy yourself. Secondly, please abide by the Phase 3 restrictions and practice 10ft of social distancing while on the pool deck and in the pool. And finally, please read the pool rules and understand they are in place to provide a safe and enjoyable pool for our members to enjoy. Please click below for specific details.

If you have any questions a lifeguard can clarify or you can reach out to our pool manager at [email protected].

Storm Debris Collections

bulk collection

From the City’s Newport News Now newsletter. If you don’t receive it via email, you can sign up here: Subscribe to NN Now

Due to last week’s Tropical Storm Isaias, high volumes of storm debris may delay bulk collections in your neighborhood. Storm debris is being collected separately from regular bulk waste. Be sure to place your regular bulk waste out for your regular collection day. Tree contractor debris is prohibited for curb pickup. The tree contractor is responsible for disposing of the debris. To review the bulk collections schedule visit the Solid Waste Division website.    A portion of your street may be collected one day, while the rest of the street may be collected on another day. Storm debris is being picked up seven days a week.   To ensure Public Works provides the most efficient waste collection services follow these guidelines: Set out storm debris as soon as possible.Separate vegetative storm debris from other bulk waste. Be sure to place the debris three feet from other objects (such as vehicles, fences, other bulk waste, carts or fencing).Do not to set out any items under power lines, trees or any low hanging objects. Park cars in driveways versus the street, when possible.   For more information call 757-933-2311.
