I think if you look at larger well known retirement communities like Sun City and Del Webb for example, they all seem to offer both indoor and outdoor pools. I really think The Villages missed the boat on this one initially, but offering and indoor pool At this point will bring us up to par with the competition. Whether or not you personally use it, there are plenty of people that will. . We have a high number of elite athletes that do triathlons or are on the Villages swim team that really need a pool with cooler temperatures in the warm months to do adequate training. I don't begrudge the money spent on softball fields even though I don't play. Or tennis, or the myriad of sports that are offered. The Villages prides itself on offering amenities for the active lifestyle, and an indoor pool is a natural extension of that philosophy.
