"Potomac bathing beach. June 19, 1924." In case anyone needed reminding: No horseplay will be tolerated. National Photo Co. glass negative. View full size.
That floating dive platform looks like a lot of fun. I can't remember the last time I saw a diving board at a public beach or pool, never mind a high-dive platform.
Does anyone know if you can still swim here? And how to get there?

Great job catching the person diving off the platform- and is that man eating a Baby Ruth?
That beach looks like so much fun! How did they get the water to go through the sprayer on the right? The silhouette of the man diving is brilliant!
