[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t read the whole thread, but this was done in my Midwest town by a not-for-profit with support from volunteers, corporate sponsors, and private donations. [/quote] Yes and the problem is the people that end up running the private non-for-profit "elite" sports programs at the public facilities are the same people that are members at these members only private pools and they run their programs like a private club, so even people that otherwise want pools or rinks, don't want our public tax dollars going to these "elite" sports clubs. EG the MSI's and the RMSCs don't view their programs as a public service, even though they are contracting from public facilities at low or no cost. EG a tragedy of the commons.[/quote]
