I think you all are nuts. I was praying not to have to take mine to swimming today!

My kid had an 11:45 AM basketball game. Now canceled because APS doesn't open until noon. Super frustrating and arbitrary. Kids have already had so much canceled in the past 2.5 years, can't APS please start making an effort???

Look I’m with you that kids have lost a lot and borne the brunt of this pandemic. But histrionics don’t help your point. Covid really began HERE March 13, 2020 when schools closed. It’s January 2022. It hasn’t even been 2 full years, let alone 2.5 like you claim.

Yeah when the irrational whiners started saying “2 years” last year they committed to that lie.

To change the weather?

To wait until morning to see if there’s actually a reason to cancel things.

Same situation! My kid is so sad. This is supposed to stop in the morning. It’s hardly a dusting.

County DPR and APS are entirely different entities. DPR programs frequently run when APS is closed over one snowflake remaining on the ground somewhere in the County.

I think we are all aware of the distinction, there is no need to be pedantic. The point was the logical inconsistencies between different arms of the same small county.

Our kid is so bummed. They already missed so many games in the past weeks. What a shame.

No snow is sticking yet, its only 4pm. Yet the cancelled morning activities? Why wouldn't they wait until tomorrow morning?
