But apart from that there are numerous things listed as Recreation, rather than Social Club. I'm assuming these are things you can just show up and see if you can get in. Sort of like how Jerry and Linda talk about going to water aerobics and getting there early.
First off — welcome to The Villages! When we first moved here 3 years ago, I would call the Rec Ctr where something was listed I was interested in or curious about and they could usually give me a little info or the contact # to call to inquire. It’s a strong learning curve to figure out how/where to get all the info, but you’ll get the hang of it when you get here full time and don’t have a job demanding your attention. And your neighbors and friends will be great sources of info, too! Most of the folks here in TV are more than willing to help you.

Default Oh man

Good lord, just relax. There is plenty of stuff to do here. If you need anything when you move here there are lots of busy bodys that will let you know anything you need to know about getting involved. No need to get worked up.
