The moral to the story, besides needing a universal lost and found, and knowing there is no such thing as free solar, is to get name labels for your golf clubs. They are available at any
pro-shop and cost all of 6$.
Cudo's to all those folks out there who would return a lost and found item.

As I understand it, Disney is private property, whereas most of The Villages is considered public property. One exception is the rec centers where you need a resident ID to enter the area. The Villages does have a lost and found process for the rec centers. But, a universal lost and found process for The entire Villages would be a violation of the Florida law. Here is the law:
705.102 Reporting lost or abandoned property.—
(1) Whenever any person finds any lost or abandoned property, such person shall report the description and location of the property to a law enforcement officer.
(2) The law enforcement officer taking the report shall ascertain whether the person reporting the property wishes to make a claim to it if the rightful owner cannot be identified or located. If the person does wish to make such claim, he or she shall deposit with the law enforcement agency a reasonable sum sufficient to cover the agency’s cost for transportation, storage, and publication of notice. This sum shall be reimbursed to the finder by the rightful owner should he or she identify and reclaim the property.
(3) It is unlawful for any person who finds any lost or abandoned property to appropriate the same to his or her own use or to refuse to deliver the same when required.
(4) Any person who unlawfully appropriates such lost or abandoned property to his or her own use or refuses to deliver such property when required commits theft as defined in s. 812.014, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.
