Can't tell what you are referring to. Where is "there"?

You can do what a lot of grandparents do, let them drive the cart. 😜

I have noticed that some people who live in The Villages think that they OWN the dance floor at the squares. My first hint was the dirty looks they give the children. From what I've observed and from what I read hear I guess that my assumption is true. FYI>we all pay the same amenity fee to SHARE amenities which includes the dance floor. (Same thing with swimming pools.) I suggest that you find another dance floor if it bothers you or in inconvenient for you to share the dance floor with grandparents dancing with their grandchildren. So sad...

The Drag Racing museum at 75 and 484 is excellent. First place grandson wants to go. Lots of very interesting stuff for an 8 year old. And the antique cars next door were interesting also as folks our age owned and drove many of them.

Parent/grandparents -- keep the kids in check. There is a reason why 99% of us moved to a "senior community'
wholeheartedly disagree. very few kids 'run wild' before an attendant stops them. most of the little kids i see are dancing along with the grown-ups, with a parent nearby. smile, you will feel better

I hope they changed the ground cover! The black rubber was a dirty mess. Went once (about 2 years ago) an wouldn’t go back after young grand was covered in black. And adults shoes were black too. Leesburg Venetian Park much cleaner ground surface.

Also there is a wading/sprinkler park in Leesburg, closed in November but I'm sure it's open now.
