The following year I was asked to run the concession stand during the first year of operation on his new pool in an eastern suburb. As a college student at CCAD I would occasionally see Dick at his Olympic bowling alley on Broad street while I had lunch there. I’m 77 now but still have wonderful memories of the fun times at the swim club! It was a great place to be as a teenager…swimming, girls, and early rock and roll!!!
