I know of Shorehaven and Castlehill Beach Clubs. Did any of you go to them or any others that I didn't know about??

Went to Shorehaven in '55 & '57.

My sister Gail went to Shorehaven 57-61. I went to Castlehill BC 1958-61.

Made a mistake - Went to SHorehaven in 53 & 55.

There was Cascades It was more of a pool with sand.

Where did you people get all that money to belong to a Beach Club? I thought everyone was poor. I had to hike a mile or two to go to a public pool for 10 cents and 25 cents, depending on the day and time.

THE FEE'S WEREN'T THAT BAD. IT WAS ONLY $250.00 for Castlehill for 4 weeks.

I WENT TO JONES BEACH EVERY DAY IN THE SUMMER, AND SOMETIMES GOLDEN BEACH

Me too, but I'm sure you weren't there when I was there, since I'm your grandmother. LOL

Thanks herb-m i was thinking the same thing, but I was afraid to say it. we were lucky to be able to pay the rent. $250.00 to spend like that was unheard of for most people I knew. we were lucky to have money for the bus to Orchard beach. if not, it was tar beach with a hose running up from someone's door on the top floor to cool off. Beach clubs were out of the question. kbgee, we went to jones when we started to hang out with guys who could drive.

Anybody go to fleethollow. It was on River ave near the jail. It had a pool

We used to go under the 155th street bridge in the Harlem River.

HANGING, I WAS FORTUNATE TO HAVE A SISTER 15 YRS OLDER THAN ME.....LOL
I THINK I WENT TO ORCHARD BEACH 3 X MY WHOLE LIFE LOL

as a family we used to go to a lake, but i dont remember the name. I'll have to ask my aunt.
and a pool. Oakland pool?
As teenagers we would go up to lake oceola (sp) in Mahopac.

WAS IT ROCKLAND LAKE HANGIN? THAT'S WHERE WE USED TO GO, AND CATHY I WENT TO ORCHARD MAYBE 3X TOO WITH MY OLDER SISTER. LOL

Sometime we would ride our bikes over the GW Bridge to go to Palisades Park salt water pool and then rides.

DOES ANYBODY REMEMBER BRONX BEACH,FERRY POINT PARK,WE USED TO SWIM IN THE IN THE RIVER OFF KAISER'S BOAT HOUSE IN CLASSON POINT,AND OF COURSE THERE WAS ALWAYS TAR BEACH!!

Hey, wasn't there a Beach Club around 167th and Jerome Ave? Ypu could see it from the Woodlawn Jerome as it went around that big curve. For the life of me, I can't think of the name!!

It was Cascades; North of 167th St

dbob: Cascades


Guys, that is so crazy! A beach club right in the middle of a busy urban area... to me that is so odd. I wish I could've seen it... must've been nice.

It had a ginormous pool. Lots of beach umbrellas. I recall the place was always crowded.
