The pool should be considered the same as a park and not as a money making enterprise.

Our Foster Son who attended Vero Beach High School had his swimming practice at Leisure Sq. and we know that the Swim Team was very instrumental in his development into a fine young man. Please think about the health and safety of our youth.

A skate park? Please.... Think about the cost of liability insurance. Also, this is Florida. The town needs at least one public pool.

This is the only reasonable place for the athletes to: learn water safety for their own lives practice swimming practice and compete Special Olympics events!!! Coach George

This pool is a vital part of Vero Beach's recreation, and should be saved for all to use.

I’ve been to the city pool when I visit my sister Pat in Vero. Nice pool and I’ve met some great people. Keep up the fight!

At 68 years of age my most recent blood pressure reading was 102/58. I do not take any meds. My “medicine” is lap swimming. Since learning about the pool at Leisure Square it has become a regular part of my cardiovascular fitness program. Swimming is excellent exercise for people of all ages but especially for older people. Closing a lap pool in a community of older people is an insult to the community’s potential to improve cardiovascular health. Instead of closing the pool advertise that it’s there. I lived in Vero for two years before I learned about this beautiful pool.

The pool is critical for those in need, including physical and emotional therapy as well as seniors.

Please don’t close this pool. My son loves the Bolts team and Pam runs a great Masters program for adults.

This pool gives joy and health benefits to so many senior citizens, special Olympics and kid programs! Why can't the WHOLE community benefit from both skate park and the pool?

I’m 52 years old. I be been living in Vero Beach since the age of 7. I learned to swim in this pool. My daughter is on the VBHS swim team and now swims there. That pool is a part of this town. Please don’t let Mayor Zudans destroy this valuable part of our community.
