[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in a town in NJ that was mostly white and there weren’t any community pools. First time I ever heard of such a thing was when I moved to VA. Nobody cared at all. Why would there be shared pools?[/quote] So did I - grew up in Bergen County. Our town had a public pool, as did most of the towns in the county. Some had man-made lakes instead of pools. But by and large, most of Bergen’s many townships and boroughs had their own outdoor swimming facility, whether pool or lake. In most if not all cases you had to be a resident of the town to use the town’s pool. We also lived near a county park that had a man made lake, so any resident of the county could swim there.[/quote]
