Welcome!

On May 26th 2007 the Gail D. Cox Community Center at Big Falls Lodge was dedicated to those who desire to spend more quality time in their community. Whether for leisure, education, celebration or a business meeting, Big Falls Lodge provides the environment required by serious folks. Go to our “Big Falls Lodge” link for more detailed information on this new and exciting venue available to members and the general public.

VFCCi sponsors many classes and events, most currently held at Big Falls Lodge and free or sharply discounted to VFCCi members. Private classes and seminars are also offered. Members also receive discounts and incentives from most local businesses as well as low rates when renting Big Falls Lodge. Learn more by checking our “Membership” link and get up to date information of events and classes just a click away on our “Classes/Events” link.

The VFCCi Board of Directors continues the mission of providing opportunities and jobs within the community of Forest Falls. If you wish to be listed as a service provider, download an application from our Big Falls Lodge page.

On the horizon is the acquisition of the “old Fallsvale School”, our historical stone school house built with community volunteer labor around 1933, destined for a complete rehabilitation including earthquake retrofitting, to allow the site to operate as a day care / latch key facility targeted to open in the Fall of 2009 to Spring of 2010.

VFCCi objectives include just about something for everyone; Day Care and Latch Key for children, Parks & Recreation services, Seniors’ events, Adult School and College extension classes, Disaster Response training and more. Celebrate “Big Falls Day”, our annual membership drive that includes Gail’s Crafts each Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend at the Big Falls Lodge and the Forest Falls Chili Cook-off, held every year on the Sunday afternoon closest to the Fourth of July in “downtown” Forest Falls.

For those 18 years or older please join us on the 2nd Sunday of each month for Bingo at Big Falls Lodge.  Doors open @ 5pm with first game starting promptly at 6pm.  The 8 games series are interrupted by a 15 minute break complete with appetizer bar.
