We are motivated to serve, because we care.
The world certainly changes quickly. I hope all are safe, not touching your face, and washing your hands often. As we process all the changes, one thing is for sure, summer is here including the hot weather along with the rain.
Because of Covid-19, Board Meetings and General Meetings/Lunch had been put on hold for several months. The Board has stayed in communication and has continued to conduct business – emailing/posting ByLaws proposed amendments in early May, passing these amendments in late May, receiving and processing new memberships, and the Board was actually able to meet in person on July 15, 2020.
Check the website for updated information if Covid-19 allows us to hold upcoming meetings. The website is updated as changes and additions are made. Add vbrea.org to your favorites and check the site periodically to stay informed about events and other messages posted which relate to retirement issues. Check your email often for important information from the VBREA Board.
Get involved in VBREA. You, the members, make it what it is by participating. The Communications Committee needs more members. Thank you to those that have volunteered to help on the committees. Contact the Webmaster at
vbrea.webmaster@gmail.com
if interested in any positions on the Board or committees. Please help to continue making VBREA a wonderful organization for City of Virginia Beach retirees.
Stay connected with the many departments in the City by clicking on the links provided on our “Stay Connected” page. Check out the VBREA Board Meeting minutes to see what is happening with the organization.
If you are still on the city’s health and dental plans, please keep up on these particularly important benefits on the BENEFITS AND YOU page of our website as well as on the City’s website:
https://www.vbgov.com/Site-Info/employees/benefits/Pages/retirees.aspx
Open Enrollment dates were announced for the 2021 coverage year: Wednesday, October 7 – Friday, October 23, 2020. Detailed information will be sent to those members eligible as these dates get closer. Check our website and the City’s website often for updated information. Be sure not to miss this important time frame and deadline so you do not lose your coverage!
Remember, this is your organization and the members make it what it is.

All my best to you and yours. Stay safe . . . but ENJOY LIFE!
