[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our pool's board has some parents whose kids are not even swimming anymore , they are the gatekeepers and often time very disconnected.[/quote]

Are there people trying to get on the Board that are being denied?  Our pool has to beg people to get on the Board.  We put out 5 calls for Board members every summer and don't get enough people interested to fill open seats.

I'm sure you have put your hat in the ring, right?

Same with our board. It’s very hard to get people and we have 2 vacant positions right now. [/quote]

That’s the thing. Someone has to do it or there would be no summer swim. But no one wants to do it, they just want to complain about others not doing it well. It’s a lot of work outside of volunteering at meets. [/quote]

Now our board is understanding how much work our A rep did.  Our new rep is a lazy POS.

New parents are the worst. We had a bunch of parents complain that pre.team was taught by SSL helpers/jr. Coaches. It was specified in the orientation slides. How can one head coach teach all those pre-teamers to swim?  Think about it. Most teams use SSL helpers. That is summer swim.

You might do better to not call your unpaid, by volunteer A rep a lazy POS  :roll: [/quote]

Just because you volunteer your time doesn't mean you are organized and know what you are doing.  How about you ask.  Just sayin' ........[/quote]
And because you are clearly much better organized and know what you’re doing you should step up and assume that role. But no, you’ll say you’re much too busy, all the while calling a volunteer a lazy POS.[/quote]
