Managing the Venetian Pools Snack Bar may be the job for you. We are looking for the right person(s) (this could be a shared responsibility between two people) to manage the Snack Bar this summer. Responsibilities include: choosing the food items carried and stocking them, managing the staff, making the work schedule, keeping the Snack Bar budget, and managing the cash. This is an hourly/bonus based position. Submit your resume to Michele Hicks, events@venetianpools.org Feel free to e-mail her with any questions.
Renovation Update
The pool renovation project is coming along great! The gutters are in and concrete has been poured where the sinking side of the pool deck had been raised. Other improvements: the swim team’s new starting blocks have arrived and the VPCA internet connection has been upgraded.
VPCA Work Day
It takes a community, the Venetian Pools Community, to get the pool spruced up and ready for Opening Day. Be sure to mark April 20 on your calendar for the VPCA Work Day. It will last all day, so you can come and go. What’s in it for you, besides having a spiffy pool in May? One book of guest passes per membership will be given for every 2 hour block of time worked.
The Master Plan and Parking at Venetian
No one needs to tell you—parking is often an issue at Venetian Pools. Last summer the Board got great feedback on a proposed VPCA Master Plan that takes a long-term look at parking and other issues. On this cold, March day, start your Venetian dreaming and take a look at the proposed Master Plan by clicking here or sign in to www.venetianpools.org and click the Members Only tab and choose Members Matters. Paul Thim, buildings-grounds@venetianpools.org , or Lisa Crawford Mendoza, vice-president@venetianpools.org , would love to hear your thoughts.
