Default Condition of the recreation centers

I love the villages but I have noticed that some of the rec centers are in need of a makeover.. The rugs are shabby and fraying, the funiture old and outdated, and frankly quite tacky. Anybody else notice this?

The only thing I would like to see changed is the carpet removed from the Colony fitness center. Carpet just does not belong in a gym. I would like to see a flooring in the fitness center just like the fitness center in Seabreeze.

Well starting off several of the older rec centers have been overhauled. Chula Vista, Santiago, and saddlebrook since I've been here and that's not long.


I see nothing tacky in the villages, but I'm not picky. Some things I would change, but who am I yep, NOBODY.

I'm signed up, and they do a good job communicating.

Has everyone signed up?

Sofar today I have received 3 "e-notifications" from the District.
One to remind us of the courses opened yesterday and to tell us the courses that opened today, also the ones that will open 10/1 and 10/2.
Two more to tell us of rec. centers about to have some work done on them.

The floors are in the process of being replaced at the Churchill rec center,
and I personally thought they were pretty nice.
The Villages, even though comprised of many facilities,
does a exemplary job of keeping up maintenance on them all.
