Dear Mr. Mehl,
I would like to express some concern about the bulkhead being put into the Swim Center Pool. I have been
swimming at the Swim Center for years and am glad to see so many swimmers using the pool, but I was wondering
how much research and planning went into this decision? When I asked about how the new set up would work, not
one guard, or the manager could tell me. The lanes at 5:30 a.m. have been crowded and it will be even harder to pass
swimmers when needed in a 25 m or 25 yd length. I swim at MSU when the Swim Center is closed and it is hard to
swim even 3 to a lane unless you all swim very close to the same speed. I was also wondering why Bogert isn't open
during the a.m. while the Swim Center is closed. It is $8.00 a time to swim at MSU and many people would swim
early mornings at Bogert. Thanks for your time.
Sincerely,
Holly Hart
