Clarendon and Richmond Recreation Open on Same Day

Two recreation facilities are now open in the Village of Richmond. Richmond Recreation features a dog park, bringing the tally in The Villages to eight — giving the community more dog parks per capita than any other city in Florida. The location also includes an adult pool, bocce, shuffleboard and corn toss. Clarendon Recreation is rich with outdoor opportunities such as pickleball, tennis, sand volleyball, beach tennis, shuffleboard, pedestrian paths, outdoor exercise equipment and a resort-style family pool. “Two recreation areas opening up on the same day shows how invaluable the lifestyle opportunities are for our residents and how they embrace it,” said John Rohan, The Villages’ director of recreation and parks.   Clarendon and Richmond Recreation Open on Same Day Photo Caption: Luis Garcia, from left, of the Village of St. Catherine, Charlie Nichols, of the Village of St. Catherine, Ken Brodrick, of the Village of Linden, and Diane Tortorice, of the Village of St. Catherine, play pickleball during the grand opening of Clarendon Recreation on Thursday, Dec. 1.Rachel Stuart, Daily Sun Local Villager veterans moved by emotional trip to DC Article written Staff writer Garrett Shiflet, Daily Sun Staff from The Daily Sun
