The squares are open now, just no live music.

He has heard live music is coming back next month.

Somehow, they figured out how to do entertainment at the defacto square south of 44 (Edna's on the Green) but they can't figure it out at the real squares.

However, in SS there is daily afternoon outdoor music at Amerikano's (2-4?) and Margarita Republic (4-8) . Indoor events at Margarita Republic (karaoke, DJ, trivia etc) most nights. Live music Thursday evening at WOB in SS, Live music Wed, Friday Saturday evenings at The Corkscrew in SS, I know the bar at Fiesta Bowl has entertainment most evenings also. I am probably missing some but this is a good start for Spanish Springs

We saw Johnny Wild at Cheers, the Country Club at Stonecrest for a dinner show. He did not appear with his entire band; it was just Johnny Wild and the two Delights. Just wondering if anyone has seen Johnny Wild and his entire band anywhere.

When you say the "squares are open";......are the bar huts open?; is there live entertainment? I didn't think so. To me......this does not mean the "squares are open". I do understand there are no barriers preventing anyone from strolling through the squares or line dancing to music they bring themselves. To me......those squares are not open in the sense that folks are asking.

Rumor has it that the squares will start having live entertainment again Oct.5. Pools are pretty much open. Rec centers are 'open' but as far as I have heard there are few, if any, groups meeting and the exercise rooms are still closed.

Since the Sharon is opening with musical acts the squares are hinted as opening also. October?

Sports pools have been open for awhile. Scheduled pool activities may have changed. Check here; it updates on Thursday mornings. [URL="http://thevillagesdailysun.com/app/recnews/index.html"]

Sports pool info is located around page 30.

You might as well stay where you are. Rec Centers are not open for indoor activities except a limited number of people who can play billiards but that's it. No leagues or organized groups are allowed as yet and Resident Lifestyle Group Leaders will be contacted later on when they decide to open things up. No word for now on anything.

Thanks for the update !

Just read on "Inside the Bubble" and on Nextdoor, that the entertainment and the bait shacks will be opening on Oct. 5 on the squares. Entertainers were notified. Now , with that being said, If it's done properly, it can be ok. BUT EVERYONE MUST WEAR MASKS! It will be crowded and you have to be smart! Of Course you will have to lift those masks for your sips! Being outside is the best scenario, but with crowded spaces, MASKS have to be worn correctly, and this way, everyone can enjoy while feeling safe.

He did NOT say that. Your comment is false information. What he said was:

This week I’m hearing a rumor that the “bait shacks” (bars) in the town squares will reopen, and entertainment will start back on October 5.A post I read said that town square restaurants, shops, and entertainers have been notified, but I’ve yet to verify that from a reputable source. I’ll keep my ears open and keep you posted though!

First paragraph:
Coronavirus in The Villages - Latest Updates

Nextdoor is worse than here when it comes to "uncorroborated" news. That being said, 2 store managers at LSL say they have heard nothing about this.

So far if you are unhappy with a comment, you could
1. Throw up on someone’s shoes
2. See someone Running naked
3. Haven’t smacked anyone yet, but you are close.

What happens when you really get upset?
