We need to leave aquatic centers to private enterprise. They are doing a great job meeting the demand.
Lacamas Swim and Sport has two pools - a three lane indoor pool and an 8 lane 25 meter indoor/outdoor pool that is state of the art. Most of the lanes are unused during the 35+ hours of open adult swim hours. Sometimes I swim and have the entire pool to myself.
Wow. With that unused capacity, does Camas need to spend 70+ million on a new facility? This is a bond we will be paying for 20 years!
If your home is worth $400K, you are looking at a 20 year bill of $10,000. And that is only the bill if you never use the new facility. Join an existing club/pool and vote "no" on this bond. You will get something for your money and it would be nice for me to see someone else during open swim times.
