I'd hate to think that you could possibly be wra, wra, wra, wrong, but in this case you are. There are three levels of rec centers according to Mr. Moyer. Your basic Pool and Mail Center is called a Neighborhood Rec Center. Examples would be Calumet and Springdale. The next level up is called a Village Rec Center. An example would be Chatham Rec Center. It is as you describe above. The largest is the Regional Rec Center and is like Mulberry and Laurel.

There will be an increase of 6% in the population of District 4 with no increase in Pickleball courts, Tennis courts, Bocce Courts, Shuffle Board Courts, Horseshoe courts, golf courses, meeting rooms, or picnic shelters. Now I'm pretty sure there isn't a chance for more golf up our way, but it does seem fair to expect at least a 6% increase in the other activities, especially meeting/game rooms.
