No excuse for the mess left behind after event at college

I am a regular user of the sports facilities of the Lethbridge College. On Friday, May 26, I enjoyed my regular visit and also witnessed the graduation ceremonies with all its hoopla.

On the following Monday, May 29 I returned and I was disappointed to see the entrance of the facility in a mess. I said to myself, not a good report card for our new graduates.

I complained to the office staff and they quickly assured me that it was not the doing of the graduation ceremonies.

Instead the facility had been rented out for a Pow Wow event on Saturday.

They also told me that a similar mess in the foyer and the gyms was found by early arriving staff on Monday morning. By the time I arrived at 10 a.m. that had been cleared up by additional staff.

I do not consider this responsible behaviour by the organizers of the event nor its participants.
