principle is the same

I have lived here for fifty years, have no kids at the Rec center, and dont mind paying for OUR kids to play and enjoy themselves here. I DO have a problem when I am expected to pay for EVERYBODY else's kids TOO, from outside the Springs! I do not golf either but I dont mind paying the bond because it is a convenience for our golfers AND preserves the green space for the next generation of kids. I also do not mind if outsiders come to play our course, as long as they pay the going standard rate. Ditto the pool. I WOULD have a problem if we gave the outside golfers a 60% discount, while we are losing 190k per year. Same goes with the pool, as the principle is the same. While a steep discount doesnt appear to be happening at the golf course now, it DOES appear to be happening at the pool. How can that be justified? Dr. Mel Johnson
