Elena and I have been trying to navigate the Park Authority website, finding summer camps for kids. I have never been on a more miserable website. It is virutally unusable. There is no way to even browse without signing up. The questions asked don’t match adults. (I obviously am not in first grade.)
There are codes to which there is no legend. You cannot tell which location you are signing up for. You cannot tell what is being offered or where it is. The Parks and Rec Authority gets enough money to have a website that can be navigated.
Prince William County is not out in the boondocks. Prince William County people are Internet savvy. To present this mess to the public is simply unacceptable. If this is packaged programming, and this best there is, then hire someone to write our own software. This is absurd, ridiculous and embarrassing.
The county would be money ahead if they had 1 mailer and did everything else on the Internet rather than having massive printing bills and tying up employees to answer questions that should be accessible on the Internet.
Prince William County residents should demand better. The current Internet system is unacceptable.
