Any Villagers from Rockford Illinois??
 
My husband are recent fulltime Villagers. We are wondering if there are any ther villagers from Rockford, Illinois, or the surrounding areas? I thought this was the best way to reach people to answer this question!
Hope to hear from those Rockford, and near Rockford people!:wave::wave::wave:

There are many people at New Covenant Methodist Church from Rockford. We were raised in Cary.

Angie--You can be in!!

Do you mean New Covenant Church here in The Villages? I am new here and do not know that church.

skyc6 11-22-2011 10:04 PM

Whartenjelly--Is Lucy in The Villages? Matbe you mean you think she might still be in Rockford. I don't know her, and I lived there the last 25 years, but that doesn't mean she isn't there. How long since you have known her? Have you checked Whitepages.com? Or googled her name?

I spent my first 51 yrs. in Rockford/Rockton until I moved here 7 yrs ago. Retired after 33 yrs. with the police dept. Haven't been back in 7 yrs and these have been the best 7 yrs of my life. What a place!

It's behind Crispers and golf cart accessable-on 101 near 466. PM me, and I'll give you the name of Rockford people.

Greg--nice to meet you! What police department were you with?
My hisband and I met another man from Rockford, and we were exploring the idea of starting a Rockford group. Would you be interested? Just maybe a monthly potluck or something. We also met a couple from Winnebago.
Avista--thanks so much! I would love some other Rockford names.

Greg--Thanks for the reply. Nice to meet you, and what police dept. were you with?
I agree with you-after 5 weeks here permanently-what a place!
My husband and I have met a couple from Winnebago, and also a couple from Rockford in the neighborhood. We were expolring the idea of starting a Rockford group. Maybe just a monthly potluck or something.
Avista--thanks so much for any Rockford names!

Welcome to the Villages!

We are not from Rockford but we were campground hosts for three months from March through June of 2008 in Roscoe, Illinois at Honanega Campground.

Have you moved back to the Villages? Nice to meet you.

Would Sterling Rock Falls area be considered in the Rockford area? Both of us graduated from RockFalls High School, but raised our kids in Sterling.....moved to Orlando area after the kids graduated High School...just moved to TV in August....

We would love to meet you. We are moving to a patio villa in Amelia Villas, Summerhill next week.

we could meet at Crispers!

Connie and Chuck
