The first of our three annual pool parties and cookouts will take place on Monday, May 25, to celebrate Memorial Day. Festivities get underway at noon with burgers and hotdogs on the grill and a potluck spread of sides and desserts. Please bring a dish to share. See you there, neighbors! 

We'll have parties on July Fourth and Labor Day as well. 

The swimming pool has gotten another big off-season update! Following last year's redecking, the pool interior has now been replastered. A special thank you to pool chair Paul McCabe for coordinating and overseeing this major project. 

The pool opened for the summer on Friday, May 15. Hours are 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., seven days a week. As a reminder, lifeguard coverage runs from Memorial Day through Labor Day on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays only. All other times are swim at your own risk. 

Use of the pool is limited to Mount Vernon Woods Community Association members who are current on their dues. Please do not allow anyone into the pool other than members of your own household. If you have lost or never received your pool fob and are current on your 2026 Community Association dues, contact Paul at 404-823-3088 to request a new one. 

Thank you to all who have paid their 2026 Community Association dues. If you have not yet done so, your pool fob has been deactivated and ReserveMyCourt access has been restricted until your account balance is paid in full. 

Please submit payment via the Heritage website.

If you have questions or would like to set up a payment plan to submit your 2026 dues in installments, email MVW treasurer Lanny Gilbert, at mvwtreasurer@gmail.com.

Did you know that our neighborhood courts are home to ALTA teams? And right now, they are looking for more neighbors to join the fun. If you’d like to give it a try, you are invited to drop in during their practices on Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings, or email Steve or Alexander.

Need help with jobs like babysitting, yard work, or dog walking? We now have a directory of neighbors (and neighborhood kids!) you can reach out to for a variety of household tasks.
