I'd like to see a gf cart drive-in movie theater.
It would also be cool to have a golf cart race track so those interested can modify a spare cart for speed and stability. Would be a good spectator sport too. Could call it the Villages NASCART races...

“The Lifelong Learning College was challenged by a group of Villagers with hearing impairment because interpreters were not being provided at courses offered. After attempts to work with the Lifelong Learning College and a dispute about providing accommodation that would allow deaf individuals to equally participate in the courses offered, the group believed there was no choice but to file a lawsuit, Louis Schwarz, one of the lawsuit participants, said. This lawsuit led to the closure of the Lifelong Learning College, which more than 18,000 Villages residents took part in.”

Lazy River Idea
 

What a wonderful idea! I would love that.

They had a class teaching the constitution. So shut it down

Wow, we have numerous discussions on getting necessary repairs done around here. Cost for a lazy river would be out of sight and future costs will also be out of sight. Suggest jumping in your car and float down one of numerous spring fed rivers around here. No infrastructure needed and they are natural. Only downside is that they are long(3-4 hours) in a tube.

Seen No gator in the way up north part of villages. Closest gator was at Palmer’s. Anybody seen any north of Palmer’s?

And while they’re at it, how about an indoor ski slope.

The concept discussed in related thread that Bilyclub linked to in his Post #17 is tried and true.

I swam, as a kid, in a lagoon heated by discharged water from a steam turbine plant. It was essentially a monetized heatsink - and that was in the '70's!! It is still operational today, link below:

Does the Enrichment Academy meet your requirements? Or is it not like the original lifetime learning? Dusty

What kind of classes do they have at Lakeside Landings ?

Will there be priority passes to avoid the queues?:icon_wink:

I would welcome a proper "raised floor" ballroom either the same size as or larger than the floor at the Everglades RRC, Eisenhower RRC, etc., or the Hacienda. I <know> that I am not alone in this thinking as dancers frequently lament the lack of such a venue.

While I am making this wish, I would ask for two walls of the aforementioned "wished for" ballroom to have mirrored walls (which may be covered with draw curtains [or something equivalent]). As it would please all of the many dancers, might we allow the floor to have space around it for tables and chairs (so that the tables and chairs do not infringe on the wished for floor).

The Villages and its residents deserve a true venue at which to experience proper, formal gatherings.

It's pretty simple to get it to work. Say the lazy river is 1/2 mile long as it winds itself around the large parcel of land. After one rotation you would get off if someone is waiting for a tube. If not you just continue on for another rotation. This is how they work in other places.

Your talking about a wave pool. This is a lazy river that just has a small current to move your inner tube down the "river".

& a windmill could power the river flow & power the ski lift up the slope.

MORE windmills.
