Still recovering from that last bout of hysteria about the Lake Worth Pool?

The City of Lake Worth Municipal Pool is still there. I was swimming/exercising in the pool this morning.

You don't even need to take your car. Put $4 in your swimsuit, grab a towel, hop on your bike and go. It's as easy as that. Call me if you need directions; there's a bridge you need to cross.

Some sobering facts about our precious public pool:
  • $194,730 (cost to keep pool open for 29 hours a week/fiscal year)
  • $71,536 (revenue over the fiscal year)
  • $123,194 (shortfall; the vast majority of you are not doing your part)
Complain and cry all you want. Just don't get offended when I ask the last time you went swimming in our precious municipal pool.
The Lake Worth Municipal Pool: still there as of 3/21/15.
