Pebbles to Pavers Project - Phase 1 Complete
Painstakingly Difficult - Our Senior Members are "Killing It"
Many thanks to the team who built the new brick patio and walkway behind the clubhouse. From loading bricks in Newport News and Williamsburg, unloading bricks at the clubhouse, cleaning the bricks and digging and laying the bricks, we had many volunteers bring this project to fruition. Thank you, Ed Rietscha who took the lead to ensure design, measurements, and installation would result in a quality job.
If you see these folks, give them a pat on the back because a handshake might hurt the blisters!

Everyone is a Volunteer
Everyone is a Volunteer
Members are volunteers – your membership is voluntary and contributes to the upkeep of the clubhouse, grounds around the clubhouse and at the Edgehill entrance on York Warwick, and the pool. Thank you for joining!
Nothing gets done without volunteers - Volunteers maintain Edgehill property – every hour that is volunteered is saving the association a minimum of $12.41/hour (Virginia minimum wage in 2025). We try to do everything using volunteers to make the most of the Edgehill donation and membership dollars.
If you have a special skill or want to volunteer, please let us know at edgehillonline@gmail.com. We regularly need consultants to help us make the best use of our money for skilled repairs and maintenance.
