Of all the pains that life can hand us, arguably the most searing is the loss of a child. During this weekend, just as Jesus joined his distraught disciples on the road to Emmaus, we pray for all of our parents and we ask Jesus to join us as we walk the horrendous journey of grieving our loss every day. We focus on the promise of eternal life and the rich teachings of our faith to help these terribly broken parents. The retreat is offered by grieving parents who have lost children of their own. We provide an opportunity for parents to gather in a sacred, warm and compassionate space with others who know their pain. All faiths are welcome.

Join Us For a Sit Down Dinner! Starting in June 2021, the VVPOA opened up the Clubhouse Hall for eat-in dining as well as continuing with takeout dining. VVPOA invites everyone to come out and enjoy a great dinner and it’s not spaghetti anymore! For $15 a plate enjoy a home cooked meal! Remember, it's first come, first served until we run out and with Chef Joe’s reputation, dinners sell out quickly. Serving starts at 5pm. Verde Village Clubhouse 4855 E. Broken Saddle Drive in Cottonwood. Follow the signs to the VVPOA Community Center. The menu changes monthly and the dinner is the last Friday of each month. Check out our website and download the Monthly flyer that provides what's on the menu. Come support this great tradition in the community. Everyone is welcome!

After last year’s success, we are relaunching our One A Day In May competition! Using the Litterati app, we challenge you to pick up as much litter around Flagstaff as you can while following social distancing and mask guidelines. This not only helps us to keep Flagstaff litter free, it will also help us identify litter hotspots.

Help us reach our goal of picking up 15,000 pieces of litter!

Download the Litterati app through Google or Apple and join the challenge using code “1ADAYMAY.” Take a picture of each piece of litter you pick up through the app throughout the month of May!

There will be prizes for the top three litter pickers at the end of May!
