    Oh yeah, that's right! It's the IT problem again!

    I probably have more video capabilities with my Ring Doorbell than the RCSC has with their security cameras?

    That's not being fair with them FYI. They've told us for years when they replace centers they will build the new technology safeguards into them. Guess that's why they had to hire off-duty sheriff's at the Fairway Center. Maybe their Ring Doorbell year's free cloud storage ended at the center. It just never stops does it?

    I was just browsing on the RCSC website and noticed this statement at the top of the Press Releases page. Don't know if they are referring to COVID or the lake drain and when this was posted but here goes:

    "PLEASE NOTE: RCSC is not allowing any filming to occur on properties at this time due to continues health concerns. Your understanding and cooperation is appreciated. Stay well."

    I don't think so aggie. Seems to me it's their NEW position.

    And that's probably because the RCSC has given exclusive rights to a Sun City in Focus member to take a drone video of the progress at Viewpoint Lake?

    And I don't mean to be too petty, but shouldn't it have read "due to continuous or continuing" health concerns not "continues". Spell check doesn't always work....right?

    What am I missing? What does filming have to do with health concerns?

    jeb, you're missing the point, it's not for us to reason why, it's up to us to do or die! The decision came out of the RCSC! That should explain everything!

    You know, just like last Sept when they told us to get out of "their" building. Loved when the officer's there tried to tell us we were trespassing and we would be arrested if we didn't leave, using the analogy of it being identical as a membership at a health club. Duh, not even close.

    Seriously guys - this is like some spy stuff - you know - sending some coded message like "The dove flys east at dawn as the river runs". Am I right? "Besides the misuse of "continues" and the two objects having no relation, the word "filming" is archaic - when was the last time you had film of anything??? Tom - I'm ruling that filming and health ARE NOT GERMAINE !!!! Is it April 1st ?????

    And what do they mean by "filming"? Is "filming" considered to be just video recording or does that include taking photo's with my 35mm digital camera?

    You're motion is out of order...because I said so!

    Best check with the Parliamentarian before you off their heads; big, big, big mistake if you got it wrong. Just saying.

    But if we only knew what advise the parliamentarian was giving to the Chair! In all fairness, she may very well be advising the Chair as to what the proper parliamentary rule would be, but the Chair is the one who makes the final call. Shame on the board members for not appealing the ruling!

    So....this is on one page of the RCSC website:

    "PLEASE NOTE: RCSC is not allowing any filming to occur on properties at this time due to continues health concerns. Your understanding and cooperation is appreciated. Stay well."


    And on another page it says this:

    "Photography Waiver
    Photographs and video may be taken at any time at the recreational and social facilities owned and operated by the Recreation Centers of Sun City, Inc. (“RCSC”). Your attendance at RCSC facilities will constitute your irrevocable consent to be photographed, videotaped and recorded, your irrevocable consent to the use of your likeness by RCSC and others acting on its behalf, for the purpose of advertising and promotion in any media, throughout the world in perpetuity, including but not limited to television and the world wide web, and your waiver of any compensation or permission for such use."
