I don't know if there are exceptions but I see people at night on the Bonifay course as well as I am watching right now three women on the course that is supposedly closed for the month. Are there exceptions to the closing?

From what I've heard, certain people have been invited to play the course before it opens.
A friend works for Citizens Bank and told me that they were given the opportunity to play if they'd like.

The one that runs along Mockingbird and Owl. I think that is Destin.

Suggest you call community watch.

I am not the golf police. I was just asking if there are exceptions because I have seen people at night and now I saw people in the morning. Perhaps it was explained by the Citizen's citizens having permission.

No exceptions, they should not be on a closed course.

Sweetie says that they have closed one nine to let it rest and opened another nine, the new one. As you know there are three nines; Destin, Fort Walton and Pensacola. Destin is closed...according to my golf breath husband.

At Bonifay, 'Destin' and 'Ft. Walton' have been open since last October and 'Pensacola' has never opened. As of Monday of this week, 'Pensacola' opened for the first time and 'Destin' is closed, so no one should be on Destin. In 30 days Destin will reopen and Ft. Walton will close for 30 days. At this time of the year with daylight lasting until 8:30, after the starters leave at 7pm you will probably see golfers sneak onto the golf courses.
Look in the sports section of the Sun and about page 3 where they have the wave times they will have all the courses closures listed for the week. You'll see Destin listed as 'closed all day', Pensacola was in there everyday since last October.

The ambassadors stay on the championship courses until dark and anyone "sneaking on" will be charged the twilight golf fee.

Ceejay, what you are referring to was the new nine, Pensacola, which opened to the public on Monday. The three days before opening it was available to play by employees of Golf Management Solutions, The Villages, and obviously some other employees of Villages area businesses.
If Shcisamax is seeing people on Destin since Monday when it closed for 30 days they are trespassing and she should call the Bonifay Pro Shop or Community Watch if its after hours.
