VCA Committee Descriptions
Membership Committee & Loyalty Partners
​
The Membership Committee Co-ordinator securely manages the current membership information and leads the Membership Renewal Drive each spring. Working with the team of VCA Welcome Ambassadors, all new residents of the Village are welcomed to the community and encouraged to join the VCA.
Loyalty Partners: This is an initiative of the Membership Committee. To support local businesses and provide a benefit to our membership, a discount or other benefit is negotiated for VCA members. In return, the businesses are promoted to our membership
in our newsletter, on our website, and included on our Membership cards.

Christmas Decorating Committee
The Village is known for its spectacular Christmas lights and displays throughout the holidays each year. This is all done by the Christmas Decorating Committee which also inventories and stores all the lights and props used each year. In addition, the committee volunteers set up a beautiful Lumiere display along the streets of The Village on December 23 for the enjoyment of our residents and the greater community. Led by Village resident Dale DesIslets and many Elves.

Gardening Committee
We are fortunate to have five parkettes within The Village. One of them has gardens planted and maintained by the Gardening Committee. Liaising with the Town, plants are ordered, planted, beds weeded through the summer, and cleared in the fall. And we are fortunate to have volunteers to assist. The Committee also maintains the plant beds around the two Community Mailboxes in The Village as well. In 2017 The Village was instrumental in the Town of Niagara-on-the-Lake winning the Communities in Bloom award. The Judges reviewed both The Village summer gardens as well as our Christmas displays in making their decision.

The Village Round Table
​
The Village Round Table was established in the Fall of 2018 as a hands-on, street-level working group, with the following objectives:
To facilitate dialogue and foster a general spirit of cooperation and community between the various areas of The Village, to share experiences and be of assistance to each other on current Village issues, to investigate any possible economies of scale that can be achieved by joining forces with our neighbours; and to raise issues to the VCA Executive where appropriate.
