When the bridge opened, the free-bees ended...........years ago.

Wow.
Chitty Chatty bridge opened late 2020 and Water Lilly early 2021. SO opened late 2021 so golf cart access to the course was never an issue. However, they did offer free carts at the executive courses south of the turnpike until the Water Lilly bridge opened (and perhaps they still do?).
