The Drake Springs pool is a huge success while saving the city millions in building and subsidy costs;
Since the facility opened May 29, more than 23,000 people have visited. That’s despite it being closed six full days and one half-day because of inclement weather.
You mean the kids showed up? You are kidding me. I thought they would be upset about not having an indoor pool, according to our very insightful city leaders.
But it doesn’t stop Vernon Brown from eating sour grapes;
“With an indoor pool, there would have been opportunities for children to be swimming on those cold, rainy days,” said Vernon Brown, a City Council member who supported an indoor pool.
You are right Vernon. And kids have over 8 indoor private pools to pick from at various fitness centers. Get over it already.
