Matter of Opinion

Join the opinion pool party

Our editorial today summarized the looming pool crisis in Spokane -- Shadle pools have closed, and the remaining five pools are in pretty bad shape. We suggested three areas of focus:

Think regionally.
Seek out bold leadership.
And get plenty of citizen input, especially this summer at the pools.

But we'd like to hear your solutions to the pool crisis. How should Spokane provide swimming for its young people and for its lifelong, older swimmers?
