[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But I’d assume most families picked a location for a reason.  How many are going to be happy or willing to do a longer commute?  Why move the Gold 2 group from Marymount to Tysons if Tysons is full?  Doesn’t make sense.  I can’t imagine families are happy about this.[/quote]

Current groups at Tysons are full but Tyson’s doesn’t currently have a Gold 2 - this adds a new group.

The sites are 15 min apart. [/quote]

Right.  But now Marymount won’t have a Gold 2 group and Tysons won’t have a Gold 1 group.  And with lights and traffic they are much more than 15 minutes apart.  Marymount parents and swimmers won’t be happy with this new arrangement and their 13-14 year olds are fast.[/quote]
Those super fast 13-14 Marymount swimmers probably won’t see Gold 2, so it really won’t impact them. It will impact the fastest Tyson’s kids who now have to trek to Marymount. [/quote]

Agree.  It will really only impact Tyson kids who are at the top level. If they want to stay at Tyson’s Gold 2 would still be an option and likely equivalent to what they had before.  If they want the top group, they would have to head to MM.[/quote]

Well, Marymont parents are not happy at all. Having Gold 2 and Gold 1 allowed many kids at the site to do one year of Gold 2 before then moving up to Gold 1. And that included most of their fast 13-14 year olds. No one is interested in shipping their kids off to Tysons to be forgotten about.[/quote]
Gold 2 is one group, the swimmers that have to spend a year there before going to Gold 1 won’t be forgotten about any more than they were before. Having to go to Tysons, which is presumably further away for most Marymount families, I can see being very irritating and would make me unhappy too. [/quote]
