“I visited today to get a 10 trip swimming pass. Chelsea, at the desk, was wonderful. As I got a discount, via my Community Service Card, there was absolutely no change or judgement in Chelsea's response to me. I reckon whomever employed Chelsea, made a brilliant choice, Thanks Chelsea. Cheers John Pearson.”
