My name is Dawn Ferreira. I am a CV Starr member and use the pool 4-6 times a week.
For 1 I would like to thank the City for taking over the pool in such dire straits.
I also would like to thank the staff for doing g an Awsome job while being short staffed and always smiling regardless of the verbal abuse I witness on almost a daily basis.
I believe rates have to go up for all of us not just a few.
The CV Starr has been mismanaged and doing a downward spiral since it opened.
Finger pointing and hate speech are doing nothing but wasting time and energy.
If we're gonna save it we need to work together. Grants, fundraising , etc...
As a single mom I am aware of the cost of children's sports( not cheap).We want them to have the best!!
When I lived in Willits T ball had an organization called Junior Giants.Supported by the Giants. They provided a locker, top of the line equipment and tickets to a game at the end of the season. I am wondering if there is anything like that in the swim world that could help our teams?
I'm also wondering if the swim teams could appoint a couple parents to do walk threws in the restrooms to thwart vandalism.
I also don't see anything wrong with the swim teams using extra lanes when not being used provided they give them up when needed.
This way the team gets to use lanes without having to pay for them and they are getting used.
We all want to keep CV Starr open.
Let's work together for a resolution.
Thank you
Dawn Ferreira
