Oh yes, how about that trail fee for driving your cart on the executive courses.

Your original post sentence #3, "Basically Harold wanted the villages to be a place where persons could enjoy retirement at the absolute fullest and at a reasonable cost." You were not just talking about green fees but retirement at a reasonable cost. So every post where you said posters were missing the point was not true, you weren't only talking about greens fees. What I pay in amenity fees, "special assessment" is well worth what I get for those costs. Trail fees, if I play 142 rounds thats $1 per round, much cheaper than a cart rental, if I walk or use a pull cart $0 per round. If I play more than 142 rounds which many villagers do, it costs less than $1 per round. Again, if you don't like the fees in The Villages you are welcome to travel to outside courses for cheaper fees. Please do not put down The Villages and the lifestyle they are providing for the rest of us, one that I am sure Mr Schwartz would approve of, it allows anyone who retires here to live an active lifestyle at a "reasonable cost." |
