wondering who would pay for the purchase of land, construction costs, and maintaining of a public pool? and where would it be located. Maybe pools needed in Evans and Grovetown and Appling areas to accommodate citizens throughout the county.
Your boss has been trying to sell the Augusta Jewish Community Center so that one will close to the public maybe.
I have been saying that CC needed a waterpark for YEARS! If managed properly, it could be a major boom for the county economy!
They had one. It closed.
Given the posture/attitude of the aquatic center in Augusta, it may be a good idea to build something in Columbia county.
My thoughts exactly Phil.
Caravans and bus loads of swimmers from as far away as Savannah, Macon, and Augusta make the trek to Splash in the Boro all summer long. The facility is sparkling clean and located next to a big beautiful public park. Columbia county would be ideal for such an investment, but it will take vision and study to make it as successful as the waterpark in Statesboro.
