On kind of the same subject. I am beginning to see golfers and pickleball players wearing a sort of stocking like sleeve to protect from sun damage. It kind of looks like what we used to call "opera gloves" without the hand part. Makes the old timey bathing suits not look so stupid. I also am wearing a cover up to swim and for the first time applying sun screen to exposed parts of my body. The sun here is nearer to the earth than it is in Ohio.

Sport pools ARE "included anywhere" when one purchases a house here and pays monthly amenities fees. It's the type of sport pool we are talking about, and every one doesn't need to be the type we're talking about.

There are many types of retractable roofs and sliding-door sides that can be built to enclose a commercial pool without building a massive building around it. Just one of many examples is shown here: http://www.libartusa.com/project/4618/

Looks like something (the enclosure) to bring to the AAC. Of course it would only apply north of 466 right now, but perhaps a precedent can be established for when the facilities south are transferred to the central district. Sure looks like a less expensive alternative to a stand alone building.
