Did you know about the "hidden" history of the town squares? Each one was designed with a specific back-story to make it feel like it’s been there for 100 years. Over each store is a fictional old looking sign such as Livery Stable or Apothecary. The motifs vary by square and adds an interesting twist to the gorgeous well layed out squares. Be sure to get a copy of the Villages Recreation and News catalogue, published every Thursday, available at any Recreation Center. Need more information? Stop in at any Sales Office and ask the friendly staff about GPS navigation for golf carts, useful apps, and general information. Do not miss the nightly free entertainment - bands and dancing at all the squares.
