Big Cypress Set To Open
 

I heard that Big Cypress Village Recreation Center (on Hendry Drive, south of Pinellas Place) is scheduled to open Sept. 6.

I learned this from a new rec center employee who will work there. He was "in training" this morning at Sterling Heights.

I'm not sure if this will be a grand opening or a soft opening. I remember that Bradenton Rec Center had a soft opening - the pool and billiards room were opened, but the multipurpose room and card room could not be reserved until a fee weeks has passed.

Both the Collier and the Big Cypress recreation centers to open Sept. 6.

Are these both open now?

I checked on the Villages Recreation web-site and they are not listed yet

Does anyone know what ammenities are at each?

I want to pass the info along to our renters for November and December

Big Cypress is open but doesn't have a schedule of activities yet. You can use the family pool, play the outside sports, etc. They are having a meeting on Sept. 26 for residents to come together and talk about what activities they would like.

Thanks PAt. I guess there may be something posted after the 26th then?

I believe are only a 5 minute stroll to Big Cypress, as that is how long it took us to walk to Palmetto Starters hut from our house. It will be really convenient for us.

Sept. 26 Meeting, time?
 

Does anyone know the time of this meeting?

The meeting is at 6:00.
