[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]why does it seem so hard to get anyone to volunteer to help these days? is it a generational parent thing that parents w younger kids just assume someone else will do it? it takes a village but it doesn’t seem to compute as the older parents look to pass the torch [/quote] Its way more expensive to live most places now, more families are dual income working parents with demanding full time jobs, fewer hobby jobs etc that allows volunteering [/quote] Speaking for my experience at our pool, the families that generally don't volunteer (excluding parents with difficult circumstances), are those that just don't want to volunteer. They are plenty happy to watch the meet, socialize, and take videos for a 2-3 hour stretch.[/quote]
