We would welcome any suggestions for activities that would give us as complete a TV experience as possible. I have heard that only one "scouting visit" is permitted......is that true? If so, are there other ways to schedule additional visits before deciding to purchase a home? Any input would be greatly appreciated!!!!
We are looking forward to our visit, and to possibly meeting some new friends while we are there.

Bbest, Welcome to TOTV. Here are some recommendations from a TV wannabee:
1. Take the trolley tour from the TV sales office in Lake Sumter Landing. It takes about 45 minutes, and it is narrated by a TV resident.
2. Go to the squares at Lake Sumter Landing and Spanish Springs. There is live entertainment at each one from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. every day. Dancing too!
3. Buy a Daily Sun newspaper. Go to some open houses (both new and preowned houses) if any strike your fancy. There are open houses 7 days a week in The Villages.
4. If you like TV after your visit in November, consider renting for a week(s) or a month. After March, it is not difficult to get a monthly or even a weekly rental in TV.
6. Ask questions of residents while you are here. Most are happy to talk about TV and answer questions.
Enjoy your visit! Let us know what you think of TV.
