Anyone ever go to the beaches in Throggs Neck. Nickles, Judges, Vogt's, Golden Beach or Deutsche/American. Thinking back the water was dirty and had oil and gasoline from the boats anchored off shore. But we never got sick guess we all were immune to the germs in the Bronx.

Went to Vogt's and Golden Beaches with Mom when I was a youngster. Then we "graduated" to Bronx Beach & Pool when we had the money, otherwise it was section 13 at Orchard.

Wheezie,
Orchard Beach brings back many memories from my youth. Crowded buses, waiting in the lines for the Fordham Rd bus to go home with wet bathing suits with sand, you know where, to add to your comfort. But, I'd do it again in a heart beat.

Charlie, You brought back lots of memories.. Orchard Beach #13, Judges Beach, ( my girlfriend's Uncle own that one, Singer Beach, and if I am right, it was also Golden Beach. I remember at Bronx Beach Pool, the Imperial Hoods were there and they threw me into the pool. At that time I did not know how to swim. That was SCARY.. I was to blame, I sat on the edge of the pool..  |

I remember going to a beach club at Throggs Neck. I thought it was Silver Beach, but not really sure of the name.
Before going to the Throggs Neck beach club, I was a member of Castle Hill Pool. Went there for years. Also, was a regular at Orchard Beach.
