No matter how one spins it, you have not seen or done it all. We all have. Some of us have gone through 30 to 40+ years of life you have not been through yet. That is why we are peers and you are not. Grandchildren are fine to see on squares as they visit their grandparents, but they don't live here 365, they go back home. We (us older folks) have a much different concept about living in The Villages than a younger person would. We have paid our dues to finally get here, in fact some still struggling to try, and when they get here they want to be comfortable in our environment. I wish you no ill will, and what happens will happen but please step back and look at the window from the other side.
I agree.

BTW The 365 day pass, is a 30 day pass that is effective for 365 days. This is a covenience so you do not have to get it renewed frequently. You cannot use it everyday! This is the same rule that we all live by.
This pass procedure is being reviewed by an active committee.
