I used to lap at Seabreeze, then Colony (swimmers were very happy to see new comers) then Eisenhower. I agree it would be nice to have 3 hour blocks with full lanes for laps, then 3 hour block net games ( that is so over crowded many don’t get in).

But I don’t ever see that happening. Lanes have always been a prime since 2007. Would love to see a 6am lap start, yes, it’s cold getting out in January but one can suck it up.

2 years ago we just gave up built a house with room for pool. We didn’t add a lap lane, but a pool to enjoy, adding a tether for laps. I actually find i am stronger by tether, than swim short lap. Not an option for all, but well worth it for us.
