Entertainment in Brownwood Square
 
I heard a rumor yesterday that there won't be free entertainment in the Square at Brownwood. I assume it is a rumor as I don't see how they could add a bunch of new homes and funnel everyone through just two town centers' entertainment. Anyone heard any details more definite than rumors?

Bill-n-Brillo 05-12-2011 02:39 PM

What was the source of the rumor?

I would highly doubt that. I live exactly between the two, why would I pay to go south but have it free north?

Bill-n-Brillo 05-12-2011 06:06 PM

Quashing the rumor before things get out of hand - - :wave:

From TV's Commercial Property web site:

http://www.thevillagescommercialprop...-brownwood.asp

Note the first sentence in the description re: Brownwood - it states there WILL be entertainment.

Bill :)

Well, pooh, tried to open the link but it kept taking me back to TOTV. So, does it say the entertainment will be free? I could see paying if it something like Katie Belle's special shows, but not just for the regular bands. Maybe because the land will technically be in Wildwood, there won't be outside music? Hope we can get this cleared up.

rather it was whether it would be there at all, the commercial site says there will be entertainment...by the way it also shows a 500,000 sq ft shopping area adjacent to the square, Antril Dell.

:rant-rave:

Where in the world is common sense these days. How would it ever be possible that there would not be free entertainment at Brownwood similiar to LSL & SS. Duh?

Bill-n-Brillo 05-12-2011 06:53 PM

Thanks for the help, lew. I have no idea why my link to the Commercial Properties web site did that. Never had a problem like that with any other link inserted into a post.

Bill

vclaes 05-12-2011 07:02 PM

Insert
 
I had the same problem. Thanks for the info. Reassuring to hear there is that much development planned. Has anyone heard where the Premier Homes will be located in Brownwood?

Confucius say: rumors that make no sense aren't true.

Ok, he didn't actually say that.

Hey..........wait a minute, I heard he did say that! Whatta guy!:smiley:

Since the article about Brownwood states it will be for residents' enjoyment, maybe we have reached a point where TV's ID
will be required to enter. As the population grows, it might not be a bad idea with previous posts about groups of kids,etc.,
sometimes troublemakers, hanging out around the other squares.
Just a thought.

CONFUSED-US say: There BETTER be entertainment at Brownwood and why would the Morse's break the mold? Now after buildout I am curious to see if the quality of things remain or will we have to kick in signifigantly more fees. All the activities and such are what convinced us to settle here. Once the settling is done will they need "attractions"? One thing I know the bond between neighbors and all villagers will remain forever! We can always make our own fun and share. Kinda like a "pot-fun/luck" dinner :crap2:

Reads like a new rumor to me...
I read that Brownwood will draw from the regional market too.

jblum315 05-14-2011 07:54 PM

It's a rumor. Not true.

JimPete 05-14-2011 08:12 PM

I believe you are right, it is just a rumor. But it gives us something to talk about.

Not a chance, as long as there are retail stores in the Brownwood complex , there will be access to outsiders..

but I do wish it was true fumar

RichieLion 05-14-2011 10:40 PM

There's no way the Morse's keep anyone's money out of The Villages as they have an interest in every dollar that is spent here.

Always follow the money if you want an answer to your question.

There is no way a residents only rule would maintain the squares. Without the "outsiders" coming in and spending their $ the stores and restauarants would close.

gemorc 05-15-2011 05:32 PM

During the next two years there will be many changes in the type of entertainment available at the town squares. Many of the Villages' entertainment groups will lose access to the squares. I mean groups like the twirlers, cloggers and belly dancers will not receive the invitations anymore. Also on certain feast days, and Ethnic holidays, activities will be confined to only one square. Hasn't anyone noticed the absence of dual parades at both squares on both German and Polish days.

helios 05-15-2011 07:09 PM

Would these changes be because of a third town square?

I assume this is just an opinion......not based on any facts, right?

skyc6 05-15-2011 10:14 PM

If it is happening already, it can't be because of a 3rd town square that doesn't exist yet! possibly a downturn in the economy?

I am sure the entertainment and everything else that is wonderful about TV will continue long into the future. :angel:

helios 05-16-2011 07:30 AM

Perhaps, tho I was interested in the "next two years" portion of the posters comment.
