Also, we are excited to announce that we will be having Government Day this year.

After two years of not gathering for this exciting annual event, I am pleased to invite you to celebrate our 25th Annual Government Day!  In keeping with our theme of Local Government in Action…Working to Serve Your Hometown, your local government agencies will provide information about the services they provide to the community in Lake, Marion, and Sumter Counties.  With this being our first Government Day in two years and celebrating 25 amazing events, I know your local government agencies are excited to see you again!

While we look forward to your attendance, please note that this event is not intended to be used for political campaigning. We appreciate your cooperation in ensuring this is a positive experience for everyone!

This year, Government Day will be held on Saturday, November 5, 2022, from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., at the Eisenhower Regional Recreation Complex located at 3560 Buena Vista Boulevard in The Villages.  Eisenhower is located just north of SR44, making it the perfect location for Government Day.

I hope we can count on you to take part in this great event and celebration of 25 years! 

Kenny Blocker,
District Manager
