information please
More info is needed- who watches the admissions gate? the city or the host team? Who actually sells the food at the concessions? Who is responsible for the totals? Who receives the admissions fees? what is the average revenue generated by heet sheets? What is the admission cost to get in for nonswimmers, etc? is $165 an hour the standard fee per hour of pool rental, or an average? How many meet hours are the pool rented for, usually? 6? 7? 8? Are the Devil Rays a nonprofit? Does the pool rental fees include the costs for cleanup afterward and setup before? How do we know if the numbers of admissions are accurate? concessions? heet sheets? number of swimmers at each practice? each meet? Do they register anywhere? if so, where? Would the heet sheets reveal any information about the individual swimmers? which swim team? where they live? Who would have a complete team roster? Pool officials? Swim team officials? Does the cost per swimmer per meet depend on how many events they are competing in? Or is it a standard charge for everyone, no matter how many events they are in? what do other pools charge for a meet? how do we compare? Who is in charge of admissions, heet sheets, and pool rental fees at other pools? Do other pools have a written contract with the groups that use their pools? Do most pools have a contract with Dade County schools? These are some of the pertinent questions that have arose so far. Help is needed to fill in these gaps. Thank you for your participation.

pool audit needed
One of the Objectives listed for the Aquatics Division is to increase marketing efforts to M-D County swim teams for additional swim meets. In that area it appears they have been VERY successful, as there have been MULTIPLE swim meets this year. They should have NO problem marketing our pool for swim meets because swim meets at OUR pool are FREE, apparently. Revenues are listed as down 48.8% for the swim team and water polo teams to $2150 for this year. At the standard rate of $165 an hour ONE weekend meet would bring in THAT amount! Fiscal Year 2006-07 indicates a total loss of $303,214 and a loss of ONLY $260,985 is projected for this year. Swimming pool admissions are projected at 47k this year and its reasonable to assume that over 90% of that income is realized during the Summer. Does anybody know how much we get from resident admissions from Sept-June? WHY are we NOT charging the standard fees charged at any other pool in town OR at least OUR COSTS for these meets? Why are the residents paying for FREE swim meets? year-round practice for 6 Springs kids? Why are there NO CONTRACTS? What do the scuba guys pay? Why cant we get any answers? Do we at LEAST have a contract with Dade Co schools to host the MSSH swim team? the MS Aquatic Club? How active is the Senior Water Aerobics Program, and what revenue is realized there? So many questions, so few answers....
