Also, there is a large farmer's market at Brownwood on Saturday and one at SS on another day (which day I can't remember).

[QUOTE=Francie;805717]I love so much about TV, but am adding some fun "nice to have" items

*GPS/Google Maps for Golf Cart/Multi-Modal Paths

cartingthevillages.com


*Farmers Market at Squares. As mentioned they happen Thurs in SS, and Saturday in Brownwood

Google maps for multi modal paths is a reality. Just select bicycle as the mode of transportation and you're off...

*Wegmans Food Market
*Tim Horton's Coffee Shop
*AAA-type service for golf cart breakdowns
*Charging stations for electric carts at the Regional Rec Centers (all colleges have electric car charging stations)
*GPS/Google Maps for Golf Cart/Multi-Modal Paths
*Preferred Seating at the squares for Villages ID holders
*Additional Bowling Alleys at LSL and Brownwood
*Larger Print Signage on Golf Cart/Multi-Modal Paths
*Catholic Church on the South end of TV
*Ted's Hot Dog Restaurants (Charcoal grilled year-round)
*TV Newspaper with Hard News/Editorials
*Gas station near LSL/Sweet Bay
*Garbage & Recycling Totes (with covers) (Ban plastic bags placed outside on curb - inviting vermin).
*EZ Pass Type Transponders to open gates (versus having open winder, scan card)
*Racquet Ball courts
*College level courses at Life Time Learning College
*Farmers Market at Squares
*Food & Wine training kitchens
*Employment Center/Call Centers for Work at Home Opportunities (great jobs for retirees!)

Hope this stimulates some discussion and is meant to be thought provoking.
WOW!!!! This was a really well thought out post.

After seeing the charging station suggestion I'm really, really surprised I've never seen that come up before. Seems like the perfect place for it. Maybe it has come up here and I've just never noticed it. I've literally never seen one used in other places but am 100% certain they would be used to a significant level in TV.

I do like a lot of those. I'll 2nd your motion on Tim Horton's. I didn't put that on my list since there are Dunkin' Donuts I'll just wish for more of them. I don't believe there are any Tim Horton's in the south. DD is a close second to Tim's!!!

And I saw another one I was remiss at including..Chipotle. Actually I'm surprised there aren't any there. However, I think McDonalds has pulled way back on their expansion with them.
