[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You could possibly get more economic diversity by helping facilitate rides to practices. Right now kids with two working parents typically can't get to practice without an au pair or nanny, which many can't afford. Helping to encourage and facilitate carpooling or shared transit (van service?) would help. [/quote] Another option would be to make it part of extended day for kids who choose that option. In Arlington, you could bus kids who want to do swim team to Long Bridge for practice with AAC coaches. Parents of higher income may elect to pay for bus service to avoid that heinous drive, offsetting the cost for lower income families.[/quote]
