So, can’t there be a time when non-golfers can sneak a peek at the courses. Maybe I have missed events such as this in the past as I am only now a full time resident. Of course this should be done in such a way as to minimize the inconveniences it might create for golfers and only take place a few times in the year. One event could be a caravan of carts following leaders who know the way. Some might even want to take up golf after seeing firsthand the fields of play.
This is my suggestion that I posted on the Villages survey for others and you to think about.

Our daughter Helene has not ever played a hole of golf, but she goes with me as an observer every time I play. She knows she must stay well back away from swings and safely away from where any ball is directed. She knows too, not to talk when someone is addressing the ball.. This is for nine hole golf with dear friends and then we go to lunch. She opts to sit safely in the cart and enjoy the ride and the views.
Perhaps you know a friend who golfs? You must bring your ID and check in too, even if just observing. There are good reasons why people can't use the golf trails as walking trails or for riding their bikes or for fun golf cart trips.. It isn't safe.
I think that it may be time for you to take some golf lessons twoplane. Why must you miss all the fun?
