Just to summarize
There was a group who wanted a performing arts center some years ago and Mark Morse offered to enlarge the Church on the Square and they turned him down.They wanted something bigger or to their plans.
The church on the square had been used by a church early on and then for many years had a rotating bunch of non denominational speakers at noon on Sunday. The building was used for a variety of musical events including The Villages Philharmonic. Some of the smaller groups were very inexpensive.
Here is the letter sent by Mark Morse to Janet Tutt in 2010.
