Does the vision of retiring to a Del Webb Sun City community appeal to you? With their Vacation Getaway program, you can now sample the lifestyle and see if it fits. Vacationers at least 50 years young can plan multiple-day visits to one or more Sun City locales in Texas, Arizona, California, Nevada or South Carolina. There's no obligation, and it sounds like fun.
Larry Keels, currently writing the book, "How to Choose the Right Active Adult Community," raves about Sun City "Getaways" and especially enjoyed Sun City Palm Desert near Palm Springs and Sun City McDonald Ranch near Las Vegas. Sun City Georgetown, near me, is fabulous and Hilton Head in South Carolina sounds tempting.
All Sun City communities offer golf courses, major recreation and fitness centers, tennis courts, arts and crafts facilities, and many have nature trails. Some locations even park a golf cart in your garage for transportation! Keels says, "You'll meet with a sales associate, but there's absolutely no pressure since these communities sell themselves." You'll stay in a furnished model home, and the modest daily rates vary by location and season with some as low as $49 per night. The April 1999 AARP Bulletin advertises Del Webb Vacation Getaway packages. For more information about locations, pricing and reservations, call toll-free 888-932-2639.
