[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be fair, I think this spirited debate regarding community centers is far more entertaining than this thread just being a live reaction feed to what Key advocates are posting on AEM.

And DP, but yeah, the poster fixated on community centers merely being havens for selfish senior citizens taking yoga classes is just strange. I live close to Barcroft and Arlington Mill CCs and both are well-used by so many people in the community, for so many different reasons. So many kids and non-senior adults use them, the kids are same ones simultaneously receiving their public education entitlement.[/quote]

1. There are multiple people posting about community centers. I was the one who originally brought it up and haven't posted about them recently. Please don't conflate posters.

2. I never said to get rid of community centers. Just that it's a shame we can't use the land for some of those for schools (since they were originally built as schools - in good school locations) and have fewer, more centralized community centers. Sounds like the county would like to do that do, but alas money and land are not unlimited.

FWIW, I'm sure my family and I use community centers more than the average Arlingtonian and I'm OK having fewer and having to drive a little farther for gymnastics or music class. I actually don't think I've ever even taken a class at the center closest to me. It's so small that it doesn't offer much variety.
