Howard Park Community Center — Attraction in West Palm Beach

Howard Park lost the poop. I was on the swim team and did my practice there. I believe it was Suncoast High School. Of course I was the only African American on the team but I heald my own. My coach was amazing I will research and gather all the facts. How about I qualified to be a lifeguard in the military at Ft. Stewart Georgia. You had to 🏊‍♂️swim 25 laps in an Olympic size pool without stopping. I did it. Do you know how long an Olympic size pool is? It could have been more, but needless to say "I qualified ". My life has been full of challenges and I refuse to be defeated or give up or in. My parents are the reason for my ability to overcome the odds. My father especially. At 5 years old he bought me a.

It’s great place to play tennis and pickle ball. But there is this lady who kicked us off the court stating we had an hour time limit even though we go all the time and we pay for the daily passes, on top of that not everyone in our group was playing that long some of us shortly arrived and only played for like 20 minutes . I’m okay with sharing the court especially when full but we were never asked to share. We were told to just leave in the near end of the match and not allowed to finish because “we need to honor the system” and let others play. But let me reiterate the fact that no one came up to us to ask if they have next game. It was very disheartening and makes us hesitate to come back just for being nervous about being...
