Weeds and TREES are going through the bottom of the pool I spent the latter part of the 60's with such great kids, as part of the RCC Swim Team Sam putting a hamburger and fries "on the wall" until paid back. Barry and Stewie, The Lipsky brothers, The Masterpolos, The Geirers, My twin Jeff G, the Kirbys..my first real girl friend. Bob S, our coach, George and John the lifeguards..wayy to many to remember It was nothing for me to spend opening till closing 7 days a week at the club Frisbee football (before it was popular) Swim Meets Henry Hermanson giving dollars to the winners of swim contests Ahh good times My sister was married at the club and now it's a pit Better it should be 10 more multi million dollar homes NOT But I can agree with some of the comments. The residents of the CC are so full of themselves..Dues shold be kept at the 50's level..BUT make sure the owners pays thousands more than the dues (if even paid) bring in.

My parents were members from 1953 - 1961. I learned how to swim there and my older brother celebrated (I don't know if he'd use that term:) his bar mitzvah there. I so sorry to see it in ruins. We all had so many fun times there and I hope that it can be brought back to life. Thank you for posting the pictures. Best wishes to all.

The same of all these newbies is they haven't a clue of what this community really was back in the day. How the Club unified this neighborhood and gave us all a place to create wonderful memories. There is no longer that spirit here. Neighbors don't even pay their membership dues. Provide funds for security patrol so our homes and families are safe. People here certainly can afford those million plus homes but neglect responibilty for the community as a whole. I too grew up here, and still do.

I am not surprised. When the neighborhod has homes being torn down for 700-800K and rebuilt with multimillion dollar homes, what value does a swim and tennis court hold to people that have no appreciation of what it once meant. The Rsolyn Civic Association with thier dances, Splash Parties one Summer evening a year. The great joy come Memorial Day weekend when the Pool opened. Mr Hermanson who would always say hello and let you in when you lost your c ard. Sam and the snack stand. The entire neighborhood seemed to walk through those gates! Foreign Ownership did not help and the neighborhood changed from the Greatest generation to many new owners who came to this country without having lived in the tenements of Brooklyn or the Bronx. What I wouldn't give to look down at the far corner of the pool and see the Canasta Ladies playing games all afternoon. Or maybe, a cry of Homburger or Shrimp Roll on a hot Summer day! Better to have been part of it than to never know the simple beauty of the RCC! The Roslyn Country Club a vaste wasteland! I am not surprised.
