1. First there was a cut-back in how often our sand traps were raked.
2. Now there are several courses that are practically unplayable due to the condition of the greens.
3. We are experiencing 5-hour rounds of golf since some Ambassadors who when are asked why 3, 4-somes are on the same hole they reply with "Everyone's On Time" - Obviously not true.

Which leads us to the question -
1. Why has David Williams, our Golf Operations Manager and the Course Superintendents allowed this to happen and what is being done to correct it?
2. Do you think they would care more if our group, like others, decided to play "out-side" of The Villages and lose the $120,000 of revenue ?
Interesting numbers!
BUT not correct, they are based on what you believe to be true.
BTW David Williams has NOTHING to do with the course maintenance, direct your comments to Rick Craig
The courses in the villages are PACKED
I DO agreed that a couple of the courses are in VERY POOR shape, BUT I just don't book my group there!
AND the old saying "Money talks and BULL.... walks"
The courses are full!
