The Nile Swim Club, the nation's
first African-American-owned private swim club, today, announced that it
has launched an ambitious $5 million expansion program that will include,
among other amenities, the construction of three heated pools, an 18-hole
miniature golf course, a 150-seat banquet facility, a fitness center and
basketball and tennis courts.
The club, based in the Philadelphia suburban borough of Yeadon,
Pennsylvania, got its start in 1958, when African-American residents were
denied admission and membership to the racially exclusive, but now defunct,
Yeadon Swim Club. Click to continue at PRNewswire.com
