Monte Carlo Swimming Pool Asbury Park N.J. 1958-59

Here are some slides I took as a teenager of the Monte Carlo Swimming Pool in Asbury Park N.J. around 1958-59. Do you recognized a young, and soon to become a world famous singer?

Just looking at these pictures I can smell the Coppertone, french fries and burgers. My grandmother would take us when we visited. I can clearly hear her voice calling for the locker boy after we spent a long hot day at the pool. Such fun times. Thanks for sharing this video!

This brings back so many memories! I remember going to Asbery Park with my parents many years ago, who are now long gone. I think I remember a big sign when entering the pool for diving or swimming lessons. The pool was unique because it was one of the very few salted pools.

I worked as a lifeguard at MC for two years. That's me on the stone bench. All these faces and names are familiar. Also in the scouts with Tim,knew several Corbos, I have lots of stories. Everyone had hair then. Thanks for posting this.

Monte Carlo pool was such a wonderful place. Too many memories to love. Such a special place and so happy I got to go there. Fyi. Do you remember the cabanas and rest rooms with ultra violet toilet seats?

I think I see my 3rd grade teacher, Carol Keuper and her sister Snooky.

I worked at the MC Pool from either 1958 or '59 until around 1964. I took tickets in the entryway tunnel into the pool & then parked cars with Sheffi across the street at the lot as well as cleaning the pool in the evenings.
I recognize a number of faces but have forgotten all the names except for my old buddies, the Rufs & Tim H. who worked the snack bar. Can anyone put names with any other faces in these pics?
Excellent old photos, especially considering they're now 55 years old.

I loved Asbury Park back then. We lived in Long Branch &my father would drop my sister and I off to go on the rides. No place to park. 😊

My husband Tim Hauser worked in the snack bar during this time period and we were thrilled to see the pictures of him. He wanted to know if he knew you. Please send me a message. Thank you!

Hi
I worked with Tim and Jim Ruff etc in the snack bar in 1959 and than for the next three years as a locker boy. I remember Tim telling me he sang with a group called the Criterions (or the Crescendos?) and they recorded a song called Julie. By the way, my brother-in-law said that his brother, Nick Paduano was in the same class as Tim at St Rose High School. Does Tim remember me, I am the guy in the red shirt and the white jersey with Dom written on it. Thanks for contacting me, I was hoping that Tim would eventually get to see these pictures.
