An Interest Group is a gathering of individuals who share similar likes, concerns, or interests. The BCA will provide a space and general guidelines for these groups to grow. Once it is determined that there is enough interest and a desire for participants in the interest group to lead, the group may become a club and at some point, have a charter.
Interested in participating in groups or clubs in Brandermill? Have any ideas or would like to put in a request for a club of your own? Contact the office at 804-744-1035 ext. 3001 or email our Lifestyle Director.
**Interest Group Meetings will start when a group reaches 8 sign-ups. Once a group has the required number of sign-ups a start-up meeting will be scheduled. In order for a group to be established and have regular meetings, a leader must be appointed to represent the group. The goal for all interest groups is to become chartered clubs of the Brandermill Community.**
NEW INFORMATION FOR 2023
We are excited to offer a new program in 2023 which we hope will allow more residents to start groups in Brandermill with their neighbors who have similar interests. This is how it will work:
The resident brings an Interest Group/Club to the BCA Staff by filling out an Interest Group/Club Application. Staff will review the application to make sure that an Interest Group/Club with a similar purpose or scope does not already exist and that the BCA can accommodate the time and dates for the meeting.
The resident will conduct meetings and events and communicate with members of the club and the BCA. BCA will help promote the club events and meetings. A set of guidelines for forming Interest Groups will be provided to the person applying. Also, the process to become a club after six months will be discussed.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have another Group that you would like to apply for. Now is the time to get you on the calendar.
The BCA looks forward to growing our Interest Groups in 2023 with the help of our very talented residents. Could you show us your passions and talents?
