Let Your Voice Be Heard - Save Grandchild Swim!!

A nice feature of living here yo be able to spend time at the pool with grandkids.

Please continue this wonderful program for the grandparents and grandkids....We do not have grandkids but I enjoy seeing the kids enjoy time with their grandparents and other kids.

We have enjoyed bringing our grands to the pool every summer and occasionally during the winter. Please do not end this family event. As a former teacher, I know it requires every one to follow the safety rules, even the grandparents darlings. Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water.

I don’t agree that the board should pay for only a select few people. I love grandchildren swim and there should be a compromise. I have no problem paying as I do other clubs at Anthem Ranch. But, I feel that a lifeguard is better than grandparents telling other children AND mostly a few grandparents who don’t follow the rules. Safety is my first concern and I don’t feel all grandparents watch their grandchildren.

I concur with my husband!!!

What a shame that the spineless board cancelled this special time that a grandparent could offer

Do not stop grandchildren swim. It’s such a sweet and bonding time to have with younger grandkids. Older grandkids don’t want to be at Anthem but younger ones do. We have had grandkids at Anthem since the beginning. Grandparents are fully capable of taking care of kids and we don’t need a life guard.

Youngest grandchild was looking forward to swimming here this coming summer

I hope that grandchild swim will continue as it has in the past.

This is extremely important to me and my family. We NEED grandkids swim for so many reasons. All residents should be able to have access during this time as well. If residents and their kids/grandkids don’t follow the rules, prohibit them from access. Don’t punish those that respect the rules. THE BOARD has a responsibility to make sure management enforces the rules. Don’t take the easy way out and just say “no kids”.

….big reason why we moved here…can’t believe we found ourselves boycotting our grandkids for some pool time…disappointed

This is so unfair. I can’t even believe this is happening. There are so many ways this could be solved. Why should a few ruin it for so many.

I don't want to live in a community where children are not welcome.

Please reconsider this decision. We support family usage of the pool especially for children .

Many grandparents love this time with their grandchildren. I do not think there should be a cost to have grandchild swim. There can be a compromise and a work around. Just because folks did not want to pay for lifeguards does not mean they don’t support grandchild swim. I don’t use it but I support making grandchild swim available for those who do.

Save the Grandchild swim program

My granddaughter just turned 3 and I was looking forward to finally bringing her to our pool occasionally.

Important program and needs to be continued

We need this wonderful program to continue.

I purchased my home after I was told my granddaughter was allowed to swim on certain days. We have enjoyed the pool for the past five years—please allow us to continue!
