[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, I am happy for it. Good move. [/quote]

Why? [/quote]

I plan pickleball, I don't play basketball? [/quote]

My kids play basketball, but I don't begrudge a gym taking some basketball space for pickleball, yoga, pilates, etc. I want a healthy community and I like to see the old people out there enjoying themselves. (I guess the old people didn't like seeing kids playing basketball).
Honestly, yu sound very self-centered.[/quote]

NP Old people each likely pay a higher rate than kids. Kids are often on a family plan or they're free with their parents. I'm at a different gym though. [/quote]

My mom claims there is a certain add on medicare plan where medicare will completely pay for senior's gym membership. So maybe Lifetime is trying to capitalize on that membership stream and get that free free govt money.
Our family membership is pretty expensive but maybe the bulk of that is the adult membership. 
It just seems as pp pointed out that Activities for Old People and Activities for Young People can take place in the same room, at different times, and make everyone reasonably happy and maximize usage and revenue. [/quote]
