I'd say relax and don't try to do everything because you simply can't. Get a copy of the recreation news at any of the rec centers. Look through it and find activities that you think you might be interested in and attend some of them.

If you're here on a Friday morning, you shouldn't miss The Beatlemaniacs of The Villages. (Sorry, shameless self promotion)

But, just relax, drive your golf cart around and just get the feel of the place. Make it to one or more of the squares at night to check it out. Most of the squares have a lot of regulars who are there every night. You might turn into one of those if you like that atmosphere. Then again many go to the squares a lot when they first arrive and find it's not for them and do other things in the evenings.

Your Villages real estate agent can help you with a lot of things. Yes, they will show you homes, but they will also assist you in finding things to do. Obviously, if you play golf check it out.
