At one time there were five City Pools. Can you name them? How about YOUR memories of the pools then, later and even now?
Do you have photos or memorabilia that you would like to share with this website? If so we would be proud to post anything related to the City Pools then or now.
Share! Jennifer Jones-Chairwoman of the BHMPCR Project

MY FAVORITE CHILDHOOD MEMORIES WERE SPENT AT THE COMMUNITY POOL. I LOVED WAITING FOR THE MEDAL GATES TO OPEN. JUMPING FROM ONE FOOT TO ANOTHER BECAUSE THE SIDEWALKS WERE SO HOT.
I LOVED THE SMELL OF THE CLORINE BECAUSE I KNEW IT WOULD BE SUCH A FUN DAY WITH REFRESHMENTS TO FOLLOW. LIKE A FROZEN ZERO BAR FROM THE REFRESHMENT CENTER. WHAT FUN WE HAD AND SUCH JOYFUL GIGGLES AND HAPPY SPLASHES WE MADE.WHO CAN FORGET THE FIRST TIME OFF THE "HIGH DIVE". NOT ME, IT LINGERS IN MY CHILDHOOD MEMORIES; AT LEAST THE EARTH SHATTERING SCREAMS DO. BOY THAT WAS FUN AND I WAS SOOO BRAVE. KEEPING CHILDHOOD ALIVE....THANKS JENN
