I'm assuming since your daughter is in collage, she is at least 18. If that is the case, have you asked her what she would like to do with her time here. I think that would be good for starters.

Ask her to show you her Tinder App Profile. This is how kids meet up today.

While not exactly "hanging" there is plenty to do if she is active: Race high-speed go karts on a 0.9 mile road coarse at Bushnell Motor Sports; ride horses on well-groomed trails at Blue Moon Ranch; paddle kayaks on beautiful waterways at Silver Springs State Park (best) or Griffin State Park; swim with the manatees in Crystal River; shoot baskets at the Eisenhower Recreation Center; try your hand at pickle ball at any of the available courts; take a hike on any of the well-groomed trails in local state parks; or participate in a socially-oriented game of kickball or water volleyball.

Not a whole lot a college kid can do in a retirement community...

Retreads Strategy Board Games meets from 6-9:20 pm on Mondays at El Santiago rec ctr. Varied crowd, but some younger Villagers & guests do attend on occasion & fit in well. Individuals (some with huge collections of games) bring games, so changes each week. Usually group divides into 2 or 3 different games going simultaneously, such as Ticket to Ride, Azul, Zombicide, Port Royal, etc.

Too many late night incidents over the years. It's not a place I would want my children going to later in the evening. Just my opinion.

All the groups are geared for members who are 55 and older.

She must use the family pools at the Rec Centers if she is under 30 years old

Have you asked her if she wants to bring a friend? If she has someone to hang with, I'm sure they can find things to do.
