First Responders Virtual Tour, 2022 Evening with the Developer, and more

Love this first look at the all new First Responders Recreation Center:

Here’s what else I’m reading and watching this week:

The annual Evening with the Developer event was held this week, and this is as good a recap as any:

• Big year ahead for amenities all throughout The Villages (The Villages Daily Sun)

To me, the key stat from this article on the recent U.S. Census numbers is “Demographers there forecast we will see another 30% population increase in the decade ahead.”:

• We’re No. 1! (The Villages Daily Sun)

Not everyone likes the idea of apartments, but whether from The Villages’ developer or outside parties, they are coming:

• New Apartments Near Fenney (Talk of The Villages)

And, my money says there will eventually be apartments in Spanish Springs too:

• Lady Lake commissioner changes vote on apartments at Spanish Springs (Villages-News)

It’s not Costco, but hey, there’s golf cart parking:

• Enormous crowd shows up for opening of BJ’s Wholesale Club in Lady Lake (Villages-News)

Last but not least, I thought this was a good video on sinkhole insurance from Skip Smith:

• Sink Hole vs Catastrophic Ground Collapse Insurance In Florida (YouTube)

Have a great week!
