You can't enter this contest since it is against the law in the Town of North Hempstead to take pictures at a Town of North Hempstead pool of your family or others.

At least that's what the Clinton G. Martin staff makes clear when anyone tries to take a picture at this facility run by the Town of North Hempstead.

They'd prefer no one else see how few people use these gutted, non-swim oriented facilities

@ Nassau Taxpayer - we agree the new Manorhaven Wadeing Pool is a disaster.

Particularly out of line since it's a shared-use puddle for camp groups splashing, not a good poolRead More venue for individuals swimming.

The TONH should be under some investigation for charging such a high fee for a very short summerRead More season. You lose most of june and the pool closes in early September. Better off paying as you go just purchase the parking permit which is good at the Manorhaven Pool and the Harbor beach. Stop buying a season pass in protest to the yearly excessive price increase.

And speaking of investigations, what's up with Jonny's Roslyn CC fiasco?
