Mary Marks complained about lifeguards swimming in the lanes during lap swim. Beth Fellmann said she likes it when the staff swim. County recommends healthy snacks at the snack bar. Bonnie Morse West has a concern with the water exercise class fees. Bonnie suggested aquabucks be used for lap swim. Beth Fellmann stated how well kept the facility is used. There was a problem with leaf blowing and breathing in the fumes during. Beth thinks the timing is great. It’s easy to park and the pool is clean and immaculate. Doctors and therapists should know about this program so they know this program is available. Would love to have a Placerville Aquatics Center T-Shirt! Would be really great to have aquatics center t-shirts available for purchase. Mr. Barton thinks it all sounds reasonable and stated that if someone went to a yoga class it would probably cost at least $8.00.
