[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not really whether demand is there. It’s should the county be doing it at all. I don’t really need to pay tax dollars so Larlas can take heavily subsidized gymnastics in prime County space that could be used to serve residents more broadly. Let alone subsidizing some kind of club gymnastics team. Who knew that was even a thing. [b]Private places will fill the gap eventually if the county stops doing it.[/b] [/quote] I don't think new gyms will appear. There aren't large spaces available and equipment is a fortune as an initial investment. There's already enough demand in Arlington to keep 2-3 more gyms busy, but they haven't appeared. Arlington just spent tons and tons of money building a fancy new swim facility at Long Bridge. Why does that get to stay but gymnastics is out? There are private swim clubs that could have filled that gap.[/quote]
