Why don't you (all in similar situations) ask the pool management (or whoever/whatever plays that role) ...
One place is a city rec pool. ALL of the competitive equip (laneropes, backstroke flags, paceclocks) our team bought and we were very happy that they would allow us to keep them there between practices where nobody would vandalize them. I think our next purchase would be to replace the "hand-eater" used laneropes and buy/repair more lanerope reels so the laneropes aren't piled up between practices and getting broken dragging them along the deck to set up/tear down. We have 2 pools needing more equip. That stuff is really expensive.
As far as crash helmets, curb feelers, ... maybe I should just learn to swim straight. :cool:
