Default Do the Exec courses close at 6:54?

We like to play the Exec courses late in the afternoon because they are less crowded and it is cooler.

We went to Volusia just before 7:00 PM and the starter said we could not play because the last group had teed off at 6:54 and the course was closed. Have you ever heard of this?

At first we could not believe it, but then I thought maybe this policy is in effect to keep non-golfers off the course. Volusia is right next to the Sarasota practice area and it would be tempting for someone to bring a non-golfer to the practice area, hit a bucket of balls, and then let them play a few holes for free. I guess The Villages wants to prevent this.
