I have been the person that began things in the past, chaired them, organized them and sometimes directed them. I am so grateful for those who do it here. In many activities the leaders have done it for years. The "followers" try to show appreciation in every way we can. I would quickly volunteer to do it now but I am not "toting and carrying" like I used to. And thankfully there is no need. I really don't want to do pottery that much to take the required class. I am happy with going to Laurel Manor four days a week and Helene and I enjoying all four groups which are; One Step Painting on Tuesdays at one, Painting Pals on Wednesdays at ten, Craft Class on Thursdays at nine, Live model Figure painting on Fridays at Pimlico at nine-thirty and Ceramics back at Laurel Manor on Saturday at eleven. Sometimes we attend the art class on Mondays at Saddlebrook, or the Saturday Art Class at Saddlebrook that is always VERY popular.

We have been on 4 wait list for clubs, over 2 years. Then someone got tired of waiting and started a new club, problem solved. Now all four clubs on at wait list. So time for someone to step up and start new clubs

Part of this could also be the when you want to do something. People complain about crowding but the better half and I go to rec centers at 4 or 5PM and there are many that are ghost towns, pickleball courts are wide open for us. Oh man did I just put this out on the inter web, now our secret is out! Dohhh!

You post your opinion all the time so it’s my turn.
Btw how new clubs have started since you came to the villages? I have seen a lot since 2002....

People rave about the Villages and all the activities. But I suspect many new owners and potential buyers don't realize it is all volunteer driven. Sadly, not everyone has the health, the skills or inclination to start and run new clubs, so the availability for activities in the high season isn't going to be as great. Personally I'm not going to wait an hour to get into a one hour zumba class, so I find other things to do or else go outside The Villages.
