In July 2009, a private swimming pool operator abruptly ended its agreement with a summer day camp operator. This occurred after the summer camp kids, mostly black and Hispanic, visited the pool in suburban Philadelphia. Some of the day campers said when they visited the pool some white pool members made racial remarks. Federal and state investigations are planned to see if the swimming pool operator The Valley Club broke any anti-discrimination laws.

  • How do you throw COMPLEXION out there in something like this.

    Obvious racism...oh noes the Afircan Americans are going to rob us blind.

    Nice to see that people still have to fight for equality in 2009 in America.

    "Land of the bigot, home of the racist."

  • funny how the initial 'complexion' statement dissappeared

  • even if it was a capacity thing, why terminate their agreement? could they not take the kids there in groups of 30s or something, alternating different days...racist fcks
