NOW OPEN: NOMINATIONS FOR 2018/2019 VHCA BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Your VHCA is powered by the many volunteers who organize fundraisers such as Summerfest, the Tour of Homes and the Highland Mile, participate on the Safety Committee, Budget Committee, Parks Committee, Communications Committee, Grants Committee, Planning Committee and much, much more.
Each fall, the neighborhood elects the VHCA’s Board of Directors (10 members and 1 alternate) to oversee the work of the many committees and identify issues, concerns and opportunities for improving Virginia-Highland. Any resident over 18 years old and willing to invest their time and talent is eligible to be on the ballot and run for the Board.
