We can NOT get the use of a rec center on a regular basis unless we are a registered Villages club, and all people attending the meeting would need village IDs or guest passes. So based on this information the rec centers will not be a suitable location for the meetings.

As noted previously, restaurants are going to expect paying customers, so currently, I am out of ideas. If anyone else has an idea or contact with another business of facility let us know.
I knew the rec center rules. I'm sorry I wasted your time. Even though it may have been mentioned a dozen times, I didn't realize you were looking for a venue available on a regular bases. I also presumed everyone had an id.

Looks like the Lunch Menu there stops at 2:30 PM.
Meetings were always on Sunday, the 3rd Sunday if I recall correctly, at 3 PM. Let's HOLD OFF on meeting this month until we get some consensus, also Habanero's wants at least 1 day advanced notice. Since I started this, please send me a message or PM for next month, so I have a count, then I will contact Habanero's and confirm if this is still a go.

Of course if we come up with another alternative that will be great.

Every one I attended between 2010 and 2015 was on a Friday (I believe the third) at 3PM.

And maybe even instead of a pavilion, why not just reserve a room at a Rec Center...in case of inclement weather?

We have how many Rec Centers...times how many rooms in each? :oops:



I'll even say that I'll be there...so as to draw the maximum crowd. :1rotfl:
Card rooms at the rec centers can seat about 40 or so. I think all restaurants will ask for food and drink orders and rightfully so.

We cannot use the rec centers, unless we are an official club.

I wonder how one starts... an "official" club?

Given that there are what, over 2,700 of them...it shouldn't be that difficult.

However, I can't seem to find the answer anywhere in this link. :shrug:

Here's an application to rent a room, that leads one to think (first box)... that maybe even 'individuals can rent' rooms.

Yep, apparently there is a cost for the rooms.
