I think there is no question about the popularity of the idea of an indoor pool. The question I have, and I have heard it expressed here, is who is going to fund it? We have 100,000 plus people here now. Can one pool accommodate all of us?

Maybe they are planning something along the same plan as the The Villages Wood Shop. Members pay an "initiation" fee plus pay an annual membership fee. I am not sure how this works now but I was a member for some time but stopped renewing my membership as it was getting so crowded it became of little use to me. I am not sure if it is self sustaining.

Billethekid and Uptown Girl make some very valid points.
