Lost Park Swimming Hole
Title
Lost Park Swimming Hole
Description
Black and white image of young people swimming in a large pond area, while adults look on. Note that everyone wears a swimsuit with a top, ensuring that all chests are covered to the same extent. Many of the girls wear swim caps as well. Lost Park was an amusement park established in the late 1900s, and included a carousel in addition to the swimming hole and play equipment. Today, it is managed by Tualatin Hills Parks and Recreation District, though without the carousel or swimming hole.
