There are all kinds of classes thru life long learning as well as a bunch of things offered at rec centers (grab a Rec News at any rec center as soon as you get here). Rec News also lists clubs meetings. If your hubby belongs to the Legion, we have the world's largest post here with activities. Big Marine Corps League detachment. Many of the fraternal organizations meet during the day (reality of folks who have degrees of difficulty driving after dark.
There are bocce courts and shuffleboard courts at all of the rec centers (and mail facilities). Some have horse shoes, some have cornhole. There are archery ranges. You can go watch a softball game at any of the 3 sets of fields. You can go for a long walk (or golf cart ride) along the multimodal paths.
Several state parks not far away. Also a number of nice towns - Mt Dora is a favorite for the artsy set.
Contrary to popular opinion, you aren't locked up on campus. Feel free to explore. You can go see manatees, take tours on some of the rivers and do all kinds of stuff.
Disney, Universal, and Seaworld are about an hour down the tollroad. September is a nice quiet time to go - you may be surprised how much fun it is for adults without kids in tow.
Most of all, have fun.
