Yes thank you. The thread was meant to focus on issues in rec centers. For ex, I did mention the lack of heat and hot water in the winter at saddlebrook. I have asked the staff at saddlebrook many times about it but usually get a shoulder shrug. I'll see what happens this winter and keep everyone updated on any progress

If you are there during the day ask to see the facilities person. They make the rules. For example at Lake Miona it is Gene and one other whose name I can't recall. They are there M-F during the day.

You need a sit down meeting with the Recreation Department & Facilities Management to air all of your grievances.
Posting your complaints here accomplishes nothing.

All?? I think No air at a rec center is a legitimate grievance as well as no heat and hot water. I'm glad to see some on this site called to make sure I wasn't making it all up. Of course I didn't have to share my experience with others but then I thought that's what this site was for , sharing our experiences. Over and out for me.

TOTV acts as a useful sounding board to see if others are experiencing similar problems.

If your experience turns out to be a one-off then it can best be forgotten. However, if others have had similar experiences then it inspires one to follow up with the authorities and seek a resolution.

Decrying people for wasting your time by ranting, when the OP clearly told us it was a rant, seems rather perverse. If you don't want to read a rant, don't open posts that tell you that they are rants.
