We took the chance that we would possibly get a somewhat close parking spot if we got there quite early......we ended up still at least 4 blocks away which made it very difficult getting there.( No, it doesn't work for me to drop him off ....it has to do with pride)

Since the valet service has been discontinued, why not a shuttle service for those that have difficulty? A shuttle similar to the hospitals service? Maybe only when there is an event at The Sharon? I can imagine there are quite a few people who are unable to attend events now because they are unable to walk very far.

The complainers regarding the valet service only thought of themselves.....not the ones that need it.
We seem to have a lot of this in The Villages. However in this case I believe it was a case of economics, not enough people utilized the service to make it a going concern.
