He does like playing petangue, and plays with the villages club often, but that's only a few times a week for a couple of hours.
I'm hoping he can make some new friends down here who might be able to encourage him to get out and do things on a more regular basis.
Feel free to reply or comment with things that you think might be helpful. Thanks!

If he is into computers he might like the Villages Computer Club.

Here is a link to a 90 page download of a list of Clubs in the Villages--
http://www.virginiatrace.com/clubs/index.html
It has phone contacts for people in these many clubs.
The Villages has hundreds of clubs for just about every interest. Your father should be interested in some of these. A lot of these clubs do not make you do much socializing either. One can just go and listen to a lecture, or a movie, or a speaker.
