On VO Pool Party:
Just wanted to let you know that the 5th grade party at the VO pool on June 4th was a huge success. Thank you for allowing us to have it and for providing extra lifeguards for this event. The head lifeguard introduced himself to me and communicated their expectations for the evening. The younger lifeguards on duty couldn’t have been more cordial and helpful…great bunch of guys. Thank you for the opportunity to honor our kids in a fun, safe environment! We appreciate all you do for Vista Oaks. Please feel free to pass this on to other members of our board, the management company, and the lifeguards! - By: Carolyn Forster , 16 Year Vo Resident

Did you know undetected vision issues are a major factor in learning problems? School vision screenings miss 1/3 of children who have vision problems. Is your child a part of this 1/3? Adolescent vision can change extremely quick which is why yearly exams are so important.
