If you have an iPhone, check out the 'Unofficial Guide-The Villages' app. It lists all of the clubs and times they meet. I think they are working on a version for Android as well, but it isn't ready yet.

Ditto!

Silver, go to Village Community Development Districts, recreation tab for a complete listing.

Uy the Villages GPS as it not only has all the clubs, but many other benefits, such as golf cart GPS, etc. The free app doesn’t have that.

Also I wish that it listed two or three names and telephone numbers for more information, and I wish that some had more than a TITLE. I think the name of a club I enjoy called; I CAN DO IT CRAFTS........isn't really very clear as to what folks do. Also I like to know if there are any charges for supplies or for anything. (I don't think you are supposed to charge for stuff in the clubs, but some instructors make a bit of money off of some of them....I don't know why that bothers me, but it does.

And another thing would be so helpful...I wish that they would tell WHERE it is, such as in the Northern section, the newer Southern section, or fairly close to Lake Sumter Landing, etc. We are getting so large that we sometimes feel like we are making a journey to go to a club that interests us.

Thank you so much for posing this question. I am forever looking over the listings of clubs and have continually wondered what exactly was their focus, because their titles' are often quite vague or misleading. We have lived here almost two decades and I am still confused.

P. S. Welcome home. Hope you love this place like we do.

I wish they would also include if they are accepting new people. Simple of "waitlist only" or something. I've spent more time filling out waitlist applications then joining clubs. Many have wait lists 6 months long.

When we moved here we found a couple of clubs, joined and than asked what other clubs folks belonged to and went from there.
