What can you do in a Leisure centre?
What comes to mind when you think of Leisure Centre? A pool perhaps, a gym, a few offices, a fitness centre and perhaps a meeting room right? Well in Lax Kw'alaam things are a little different, we have a pool, fitness centre, meeting room and offices. Connnected to us is an assembly type room called the Elder's lodge, yes its for the elders and an empty classroom right beside it. I guess the controversy has been on who would get this room and has expanded to the general public.
Firsts we have the RCMP. Yup they want to use the space as their building has been condemmed. They want to use the space as a jail and office. Sounds very leisurely doesn't it, not only can your kids learn to swim, play in the gym and recreation area thay could hang out with all the drunk and disorderly people. I have to say not too in favor of that idea.
Next we have the post office who wants to use the room for their stuff. OK this is not such a bad idea as we could all get our mail faster (even though currently the post off/house is right beside where I live). But then does a post office fit the leisure idea?
Last but not least we have the elders deciding its theirs because it is connected to their half of the building. I don't think they need the room and the thought of extra deep frying machines in that space scares me. No matter what time of day the fried food is a perking, forget about fire control. Gotta have the grease.
The question is on, who else wants the spot and how long will it be empty, personally I think they should combine all those thoughts. Make it a post office with a jail so that the elders can go to the jail (picking up their kids who were out of control) to go eat breakfast with the other elders. All the while everyone can pick up their mail. And they say we blonds are not SMART!
