Default Re: Non-Residents Invited To Colony Cottage Recreation Sports Pool

I brought this subject up a while back and was chastized for being so "unfriendly". Yes, residents of other communities come here to the Villages routinelly and use our amenities, which we pay for and which are supposed to be restricted to residents and their guests only.

The developer does do what he/they please on a routine basis but this is the first time I have heart about an open pool function. Is this just one more erosion on our amenities?

What started out as a real gated community with amenities etc. just for residents seems now to be a free for all. People buy in other retirement communities because they are as the paper said...just a golf cart drive away from the Villages.

How can we stop this iinappropriate use????? Support the ID check at the pools and at all the recreation centers so that these non-eligible folks can be caught and ejected from the premises.

Talking about it does nothing. Need to tell John Rohan how you feel as a resident about his "open pool event" and let him know that sales parties and treats are one thing but our amenities are another and we DO NOT support non qualified people using our pools, etc.
