Call neighborhood watch. Someone should check is guest pass (if he has one) and remind him no smoking and no glass containers. There is a total disregard for these pools and who uses them. They have monitors at the Colony Pool and require mask but no one does this at the other pools.

Very few people who call in are trying to be the "hero" as you call them. That is your opinion. Most are just trying to keep the rule breakers from taking over. It's quite simple.

This is not about being a hero.....the more active we are in taking care of the use of our stuff the better this place will be for all of us. If we take responsibility there might be less abuse and the trolls in the golf cart may find less to report. Maybe it's generational but it seems people only get their undies in a wad when it directly impacts them, if it impacts someone else they turn their back and walk away. Having phone numbers available and using them helps us all.

The correct person to call is the rec manager on duty. It is their job to enforce the rules.

Every time I’ve been checked for ID at pool where there was no rec center was by neighborhood watch. Never seen rec center person checking id’s other than at rec center where they work.

Who do you call at 8.45 PM? The recreation centers are closing up just about at 8.30 on our side of town.

Where you posters with the /// the people who never moved so fast before the same ones who raced for their phones to call in? It's not my opinion it is a fact that they tried to beat the other swimmers to the punch. You probably weren't there. I typed what I observed and that's that.

Post #18 has many good points. At a different time of the day if nobody was there to call I probably would have. I would have used the number I posted before.

The rec centers are open until 9 PM, and the pools that are patrolled by the rec center managers are not open after the rec center closes. However, on holidays, Community Watch may be responsible for closing the pools.

Make the call to TV and turn him in. However, doubtful you would reach someone that late in the day. Call the next morning to report it.

don't understand the rules

You know something Bogie you’re correct. You didn’t deserve that but the way I took it is what the hell is the number for? The thread is about help at the pool. I wouldn’t give the number to Papa Johns. Anyway I apologize. We’re been good for years and I would like to keep it like that.

I’ve been involved in two situations where we stood up for people where the strong were preying on the weak. I’m living here to be peaceful and that’s what I’m going to be. Others questioning my involvement in keeping things up to snuff around here don’t have a clue. We both do our thing and don’t talk about it. That’s the thrill of being a good member of a community. I’m not in charge of solving every conflict.

Sorry again Bogie.

Everyone in my circle has had a day that was close to anger and tears. I lashed out at two people I don't know at all on Facebook. We have been reading and hearing things that are meant to make us upset and we are upset.

Let's not let this nasty time in our lives defeat all of us. I apologize for anything nasty I said or did. I have no excuse other than being old and out of patience.

Sometimes it means that somone wrote a post, then tried to edit it, but decided to delete it instead. I don't think you can actually delete a post, so the next best thing is to type "///" because you need at least 3 charactors in the post. I think???
