What We Do
VOMCA -Village of Olde Mill Community Association
Connecting neighbors. Building community. Making Olde Mill a great place to call home.
Some of the best parts of living in Olde Mill happen when neighbors come together.
It’s meeting a new neighbor at Fall Fest. Watching our kids play together at the Friends of Olde Mill playscape. Lending a hand at Barlowe Field. Sharing traditions, making memories, and knowing there are people nearby who care about the place we all call home.
VOMCA brings neighbors together through community events, meetings, activities, and opportunities to get involved. Whether you've lived in Olde Mill for decades or just moved in, there's a place for you here.
Because a strong neighborhood isn't built by an organization—it’s built by neighbors.
Community starts with you. 💜
Serving Olde Mill Since 1970
For more than 50 years, VOMCA has helped give Olde Mill a voice with Anne Arundel County and the Maryland State Government while supporting the places and traditions that bring our neighborhood together.
We help care for Barlowe Field, support the Old Mill Swim Club, share important community information, and bring neighbors together through events such as our Easter Egg Hunt, Fall Fest, holiday activities, and more.
Everything we accomplish is made possible by neighbors who care about Olde Mill. Whether you give an hour, share a skill, attend an event, become a member, or volunteer regularly, you can be part of what happens next.

Everything we accomplish starts with neighbors who care about Olde Mill.
You don't need a lot of free time, attend every meeting, or make a big commitment to make a difference. Whether you have 30 minutes, a few hours, a skill to share, or simply want to meet more of your neighbors, there's a place for you here.
Give an hour. Share a skill. Bring an idea. Meet a neighbor. Help make Olde Mill an even better place to call home. 💜

Ready to Get Involved?💜
Tell us a little about yourself and how you'd like to participate. Choose as many options as you'd like—there's no minimum time commitment, and checking a box doesn't obligate you to every opportunity.
