Within 15 minutes, a group of women filled the pool with equipment for an exercise class and we couldn't swim anymore, and had to leave. We were told these classes are held three days a week, and it occurs at the time of the morning we both have free time to swim. So, did I receive WRONG information about the pools, or are people just refusing to follow the rules so others can't live THEIR dream?

I'm sorry, Laura. Posters are intentionally misinterpreting your concern. Organized group classes are not allowed in pools other than sports pools and need to be scheduled through the rec department. Wading, floating, chatting, walking, dog paddling and doing a little swimming is allowed in neighborhood and family pools if you aren't in anyone's way. Its possible that a new neighborhood like Moultrie Creek hasn't figured this out, but you should definitely complain to the rec center. Hopefully their invitation to join in was genuine, but their class is in violation of the rules. If complaining doesn't work, organize a splash- in commencing just before their 'class' with a dozen of your friends and crowd them out.
