and is supported by members dues and some number of fundraising efforts which allow us to bring our programs to the Residents to inform and enhance their lives in The Villages.* We call it “Keeping The Dream Alive”

As I am the new VHA rep for the Village of Lake Deaton, I am glad you cleared this up. I would hate to say that I worked for the developer.
Just kidding! Just Kidding
