ABOUT US
The Verona Community Group was established in 2018 as an organization of Verona residents with a mission to connect and engage all community members of Verona to collaborate for a better borough. We are a 501c3 non-profit organization spearheaded by four officers, consisting of a chair, vice-chair, secretary, and treasurer as well as multiple member-at-large positions.
We welcome all community members to join us for meetings, happy hours, and special events! Our community is full of talented, diverse individuals and families just like you. As a united group, we can work to build an even better Verona.

Why Verona? I moved to Verona with my husband in 2017 because we loved the small town feel and walkability of the community, along with its close proximity to the city.

Why Verona? After looking for a commercial building for 2 years Robert Geiselhart and I found a great building on Allegheny River Blvd. which was affordable and of good size for his sports performance facility. It also happened to be 5 minutes from his parents at the time which was a bonus. Proximity to downtown was also something we liked about the location.

Why Verona? We love the small town feel and tight knit community. We moved here in 2023 from the West Coast and immediately felt welcomed. Verona has so much to offer, and anything you can't find here is only a short drive away!
