pool ponderings

If 30-50k in cash, or more, wasnt accounted for, would that amount to fraud, or grand theft? How many meets HAVE we had this year? Camps? dual HS meets? If pool management was aware of pool bills NOT being paid, and checked into the possibility of back-billing the HS teams AND MDAC, there would be cancelled checks and bank statements to that effect, right? If those checks were paid on bills presented toward the end of last year, they would have had PLENTY of time to clear by now, right? And the bank statements would reflect those payments accordingly, right? IF certified bank statments were compared with City documents it would be easy to see if they were accurate or not, right? Sounds like a plan. All of the above would apply to the HS teams, but maybe more importantly, to the private MDAC swim team. Perhaps, if they were paying in cash all along what they thought to be the going rate, they are not involved in anything questionable or illegal. The question at THAT point would be: where is all this cash reflected? If they werent being charged or billed, why not? Is it possible that the daily admission fees were just pocketed? Or, is it possible the daily admission fees were NEVER paid? Either way it raises some curious questions about the revenue-tracking business practices at the pool. Either the admission fees were PAID, or they werent! Certifiable documentation of either result is required! Once this has been determined the issues at the pool regarding meets can be addressed. For example, why would public tax dollars be used to subsidize a private, for-profit business enterprise? Does THAT make ANY sense to ANYBODY? Especially a business that has FOUR other business locations, significant volunteer parent participation, and only a handful of Springs kids on its roster?
