YMCA pool not free
Mon, 09/21/2009
I just read your front-page article on the Mt. Rainier Pool and am disturbed about the way it ended.
It ended by saying that there is a new pool at the YMCA in SeaTac.
While this is true, the way it is written implies that people can go there freely like they do at Mt. Rainier. It costs $93 per month for a family membership. We actually just cancelled our membership.
It was $60 per month for our family of six but it increased 50 percent.
I just want to make sure all the info gets out there because people will really miss the public pool should it close and I don't even want to think about what it will do to high school sports, swim lessons, and elderly exercise programs.
Please get all the info out there so that people are aware of what is at stake.
