Shawn Persel FS Grind Tennis Club Pool Incline Village

June 1999 – This was a tricky pool with a lot of vertical and not much transition.

Don’t go looking for this pool; it is no longer there as they bulldozed it not long after this photo. Then new buildings and a parking lots were built there. The good news it that the Incline Skate Park was built not far away from this location.
