The Valet Service was a needed service ! But it was " framed " by many loud writers on this site as " Elitest ".

So now the operators of the Sharon should jump to offer something more liking to the self-appointed Proletariat ! IE " Free" .

I heard the builder is moving to another 2 locations in Florida to start the next retirement community because the land around here has gone up too much in value.

I worry about the handover too. I sure do like how he runs things. I've met thousands down here and hardly ever run into any knuckleheads. I'm meeting up with my neighbors in 10 minutes to play games for the rest of the afternoon. I could never make that happen at home.

Lot's of rumors. I know.

You are right lots of rumors.......being repeated !
Why worry? What does that do for you?

Perhaps worry was the wrong word. It's more like I winder what will happen.

So what are you saying? That the valet service was discontinued because people complained it was elitist? Are you kidding?! If enough people used the service to make it profitable, it would still be there.

IMHO there is no way a valet or shuttle service can be sustained in the Villages without significant ssubsidy.

I do believe that a group (not for profir) similar to a theatre guild could br formed to provide either of these services , at least for The Sharon.

Sounds like a great way for a VHS student group to fuffill community service!!!
