The thief used his keys to access his wallet from his car, took the cash, and threw the keys and wallet (which the victim had hidden on the passenger side floor) on the drivers seat.

I called the Recreation Department earlier requesting some system be installed to safeguard at least keys. They asked me if I wanted the Colony Cottage manager to call me back. I said no—this is a sports pool problem—not a Colony Cottage problem, it needs to be escalated. Well, guess who called me back? The manager from Colony Cottage! She wants to know what questions I have! Questions??

We’re playing phone tag. I will update.
Why wouldn't you just wear your key/s?(around your wrist, around your neck, or pinned to your bathing suit?) Or if they are fancy keys not made for water, leave them with the volunteer at the front desk) and lock anything else of value in your car? Think of all of the accessories in all of the rec centers that never get stolen around here. I think this guy has been caught and that's good. I don't look for a crime spree, do you? Besides installing lockers in ALL of the regional rec centers, I bet someone can figure something else out. We have lived here for eleven years and never had anything stolen at the pools here.
