I think the duration of the course closures is unique to the villages. So many houses are in a flood plane. I didn't even know you could build where they are building and have built. It is engineering magic. Our golf suffers, but i sense that most residents approve of the strategy.
I currently belong to the golf club at Reunion resort in Kissimmee. We three courses on property. One was open one day after the hurricane, two were open 2 days after the hurricane. All three are open now. So its not that all courses in Florida are closed, its mostly just the villages. But I think everybody understands why, the elevation in the housing developments is low.

Is that the club with a $7500 initiation fee, monthly dues of $780 and you pay $30 for a round of gold? Completely different business model.
