You have totally confused me with your post.

I was told differently when I went to apply for a guest pass for them.

When I went to get a pass for them I was asked where they lived because I was told there was a distance limit...if they lived too close then they weren't allowed to get a guest pass. I was told that The Villages does not want family who lives close to be able to enjoy the same amenities I do.

So, I'd like to know what this "in area" pass is that you talk about. I want to know where I go to get one.

I want to know if it's okay to use your name as a reference if I try to apply again.

Or...have I misunderstood what you wrote? If so, please advise.

Bright....as I just wrote to HB....and I KNOW there are other threads here....someone please show our friends the threads....but YES you (right now according to the rules) get your son, daughter, grandchildren in-area GUEST passes.....

They HAVE to be with you and you alone when they use the golf courses or pools or any other amenities....

I am sure sweetie that if you call TV's and request in-area guest passes for those particular people you should be able to....

in fact....if you are having a problem with it I am sure I can dig in TOTV to find where one of our other friends has posted the "rules".

I do know that these rules and/or link was posted here on TOTV...

Thanks again for your interest.....hope this helps you....but the best advice I can give your family is to find a nice family place that has amenities for the kids....and to come visit with their "in-area" passes when YOU want them to.....even if it is right next door near Walmart....
