[quote=Anonymous]The county rec center staff do not want teens and kids just hanging out socializing. Even though that is literally the purpose of a *recreational center*. They much prefer to over-schedule every open space to be utilized by adults and organized groups. If there is a court, it will have a schedule like this all day long: open gym 7 am-8 am Mon-Fri during the school year pickleball for seniors: 8am-10am pickleball for Mandarin speakers: 10am-12 pm volleyball for over 50s: 12-2 tai chi: 2-4 rent out the court to private basketball or VB teams so kids can't use it: 4-9 close at 9. The more things are scheduled and blocked off for use by kids, the fewer kids will show up. The deliberate uselessness of the rec centers is one of the reasons the county MS after school program is so important![/quote]
