We are motivated to serve, because we care.
With the Governor’s current Executive Order, the Board has decided to not hold General Membership Meetings until further notice. Unfortunately this has also caused us to have to cancel the Annual Holiday Luncheon for 2020. Check the website calendar for updated information on general membership meetings. The page is updated as changes and additions are made. The Board will, however, continue to hold Board meetings to continue with the business of the VBREA. Board meeting minutes are posted on the “Stay Connected” page of the website.
The last time we were able to meet with members was our Annual Meeting in November. An election for the board directors was held at this meeting. The directors for the 2020-2022 term are: Nancy Moore, Rose Reason, Cathy Morse, Twila Leavitt. There is one vacant director position. The Annual Meeting is also the time we make a charitable donation. This year we voted to make three donations as follows:
Farmers' Market Children's Garden: $100
Senior Services: $100
Project Life Saver: $350
Get involved in VBREA. You, the members, make it what it is by participating. The Communications Committee needs more members. They need backup for some of the tasks involved just in case one of the members is unable to continue. An example of this is emails being sent out with notifications to the members may stop because there is no backup for the person currently responsible.
Thank you to those that have volunteered to help on the committees. Contact our Webmaster, 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. Current and past minutes are available.
The VBREA website is updated often so check it out often to stay informed about events and other messages posted which relate to retirement issues, www.vbrea.org. Add VBREA.org to your favorites. Also, check your email often for important information from VBREA as blasts are sent by the communications committee. Check your Spam folder just in case the VBREA emails end up there. Also check the calendar for upcoming VBREA and City events. So much is going on and I want each retiree to be informed and enjoy.
If you are still on the city’s health and dental plans, please keep up on these especially important benefits at https://www.vbgov.com/Site-Info/employees/benefits/Pages/retirees.aspx
Remember, this is your organization and the members make it what it is.
