Elizabeth Bender Pool opens in Cedar Rapids in 1968 ribbon cut

More than 300 Cedar Rapids residents celebrated the July 20 1968 ribbon cutting for the Elizabeth Bender Swimming Pool near Jane Boyd Community House. The indoor 75 by 46 foot pool featured a sliding glass door and offered free swim until noon before regular admission. The Red Cross enrolled signups for August lessons and Bender helped entertain children by tossing pennies into the pool. The city assumed pool operations in 1972 after financial struggles.
