Thank-you
That was helpful and not the least bit sarcastic. I'll talk the woman that runs Collier and ask why the Manatee center has more modern equipment and wifi and how to go about improving ours.

Collier is only 2 or 3 years old.

I guess I could have gone to every rec center to see if they are all the same but asking here was easier. When I signed our group up at Eisenhower and filled out the forms I did ask the front desk. They said to take it up with Collier. Now when I take it up I have a little more information.

I ran into staff problems here with the equipment. I was in charge of the media in a school district and training was a big part of the job. It's best to play with the equipment long before you need it. It might not be a bad idea to write down the make and model of what they have and find the manuals online at home. There are many more conventions than there was 20 years ago. I hope that helps.
