Pumpkin and Yard Sign Drop-Off Events
The City of Columbus is hosting special pumpkin and yard sign drop-off events throughout November at the Waste and Reuse Convenience Centers (1550 Georgesville Rd, 43228 & 2100 Alum Creek Dr, 43207).
Pumpkins must be free of paint/markers, but carved is okay! Yard signs can be cardboard or plastic.
Centers are open Tues-Sat from 10am-6pm.
With the end of the school year and summer fast approaching there have been several inquiries for when our community garage sale is going to be happening. It’s great to see so many households eager to participate!
The dates for 2024 are going to be June 7th and 8th.
We hope to see some great community involvement and hope folks use this as an opportunity to get out and speak with neighbors and new faces within the community.
Don’t forget to mark your calendar!
The annual Easter egg hunt will be held at the community park on Saturday, March 30th at 1:00 PM, rain or shine. This fun community event is for children ages 1 – 10. We have heard that the Easter bunny will be there for picture taking!
This is a “blink and you missed it” event so please be sure to arrive as close to 1PM as possible. Our hunts usually last 15-20 minutes once all the kids get participating. However to know our “hunting limits” we need children to arrive on time.
All participants should bring a basket or other container to use while gathering eggs. At the end of the hunt all the plastic eggs will be collected for use next year so please make sure to close and turn them in once they are emptied.
We look forward to seeing everyone this weekend!
VAT Social Committee
The annual Easter egg hunt will be held at the community park on Saturday, March 30th at 1:00 PM, rain or shine. This fun community event is for children ages 1 – 10. Plus, the Easter bunny should be there for picture taking!!!
Make sure you bring a basket or other container to use while gathering eggs. At the end of the hunt all the plastic eggs will be collected for use next year.
In keeping with prior years, we are asking for the community’s help with candy donations. We are seeking a total of 900 pre-filled Easter Eggs. Below is a link to our SignUp Genius for this event. Donations are needed by March 23rd at the latest.
Please note: failure to secure enough donations will result in this event’s cancellation.
If anyone is willing to represent the Easter Bunny (or have a teen who may be willing) – we have a one size fits all outfit available. Please reach out to the Board to confirm – [email protected].
Thank You
A reminder that the VAT annual meeting has been scheduled. All homeowners are encouraged to attend.
Details for this meeting were included in the annual assessment packet and can be found below as well.
Date: Sunday, February 4, 2024
Time: 2:00 p.m.
Location: Southwest Area Library at Westland – 4740 W Broad St
The primary purpose of this meeting is the election of Board members.
Join the Board – Be a new member on the Board! A full HOA board consists of seven members with seats split into even and odd years. Due to seat terms, four members have just completed their two year term and those positions will be open for new members. One member of the odd year group will be moving, which results in a total of five available board positions. This means we can have up to five new faces on the board in 2024 – and one of them could be yours!
Serving on the board is a great way to learn about our community and get to know your neighbors. All knowledge is welcome but in particular, experience with finance, accounting, or maintenance would be very helpful in serving our neighborhood. Want to learn more about the time commitment and responsibilities before volunteering? Send an email with your contact information to Board@
We look forward to seeing everyone.
