laughable management

Mr Gorland said that the resident's numbers about how many Springs kids participate on the swim team were inaccurate. The resident acknowledged that other numbers were POSSIBLE. When confronted to present those different numbers Mr Gorland produced NOTHING. NADA. ZIP. The original numbers of 6 Springs residents on the swim team will stand until other validated, accurate numbers are presented. Action talks, BS walks. If the numbers reflecting how many people are utilizing our pool are inflated and fabricated, at least they will be reflected in the admission revenues, right? What ARE those revenue numbers? The projected revenues from water polo and Aquatics this fiscal year are $2150. Double or triple that amount was taken in just this past weekend, no? What DID we charge for that meet? Sixteen rental hours time $165 per hour = $2640, no? After over THIRTY years with a pool and hundreds of meets and special events, NOT counting several hundreds and perhaps thousands of practice sessions, Mr Gorland says we dont really KNOW how many people use our pool? He told Mr Dotson they are only NOW trying to put something in place that will allow them to know those figures? Incredible. It really IS unbelieveable! Over the past thirty-plus years NOTHING has been done? How can THAT be? IF THATS not poor management I dont know what is! They dont even KNOW how many people use their services, how many are really residents, OR how much money was collected! They have NO contracts with these private organizations either, refuse to reveal how much was charged for each individual meet, OR swim practices. How do you spell incredibly, stupendously, horribly POOR management, at best, if not corrupt. He who laughs last, laughs best.
