You work for another developer? How's the pay?

But I also don't view everything they do through rose colored glasses. One is being very naive to think this trespass notification to all services but the village vendor isn't money to some extent. I would not be surprised in the least to find that the villages ends up with an agreement with the other bus companies...for a piece of the action, of course.

And there is nothing wrong with that approach as I view it. The bus companies will work it out......if they want a piece of our action, TV will work it out if they want a piece of the tour action.

Looks like Recreation PLantation already has that rule in place?

Recreation Plantation/Senior Adventures basically charters the buses and leaves them open for anyone to buy a ticket. It's a good for system for them. Lovely trips to some nice venues.

Something like this might work for TV clubs but I doubt it. One, they deserve the convenience and perceived security of being picked up at a rec center. It is, after all, a club activity. Two, I can't imagine a club wanting to share their bus with strangers even if there were seats available and could make the cost a little less.

I'm trying to imagine what will happen when the BoSox play the Yanks in spring training. You now have two clubs who normally charter buses to go to the game but only one large bus available to rent. I feel sorry for the individual who would have to tell either a Bostonian or a New Yorker the bus has already been chartered, but they could rent a few airport-type vans to take their group or have to tell them they SOL. I'd do a duck and cover on that one.

I respect your opinions and that you have been here awhile and I have not. I golf twice a day so I meet about 6 new people a day. I haven't met anyone I wouldn't share a bus with.
I too often assume everyone thinks like me.

In general, I agree with you. However, we're talking about a group that knows each other. They're bringing food and drinks to share with each other. Can you imagine someone from Stonecrest being welcomed just because they bought a ticket? How about a family from Wildwood? They might not be rude to these folks, but I doubt they would be welcomed. Remember, we're talking a club activity, not a general TV type event.

A couple years ago a villages Phillies club was selling unsold game tickets with bus ride on TOTV. I called and bought one. When I went to pick up the ticket I was asked where I lived and I told him Stonecrest - no prob. He lived in one of the older friendly villages.

Here's a thought, most of the old District Offices on Wedgewood Lane are empty as well as the parking lots. Probably room for 100 vehicles or more if parking is the real issue, why not let all the buses use those lots to free up a lot of parking space in the squares?

Great Idea. I drive by that area most days and if parking is really the problem with buses than the solution has been found.

[tomwed]

Is this village property on the north end of town that management may have overlooked?

[outlaw]

It isn't about parking spaces, it's about the 'vig'.
