Gate Guard at Pool

In the Crier it was announced that there would be a gate guard in addition to our 2 lifeguards. Every time I've gone to the pool I've only seen 2 people...is the 2nd lifeguard really the gate guard? Why can't we just put up "swim at your own risk" signs to get rid of this additional cost?

What's Arlington Village Need?

I've seen some posts...such as a soda machine at the pool. I remember the days when it was there. What an awesome and easy way to make some extra cash for the Village. Anyone else have any ideas?

Pool Open?

So...how was the pool this weekend. I got a couple emails that said the attendants were rude. People were also complaining that they didn't get their passes until the day before the pool opened. Other observations?
