Don't join a club if you don't want to do club stuff. And most of the time, board members are "older folks" not because they have more time on their hands. It's because they got burnt enough and figure being part of the board is an easier way to deal with the bullshit. Hell, in the HOA I'm in, the board members are trying to give the spots away but no one want it. Unfortunately someone has to make sure the common elements get maintained, and even if you hire someone to do it, someone has to be accountable for making sure the person hired does their job.
