"In 1913 the Haddon Fortnightly, the local women's organization, received permission from the borough to dam a small stream in Mountwell Woods near Centre Street and Reillywood Avenue,"according to Lost Haddonfield, by Douglas B. Rauschenberger and Katherine Mansfield Tassini. "The purpose was to create a swimming hole. The borough deeded Mountwell Park, which included the swimming hole, to the county park system in 1928. In 1937, a large cement pool was laid replacing the mud swimming hole. Eventually the pool developed structural problems and was closed in 1973. "Today little is left of one of the most fondly remembered and busy recreational spots in Haddonfield."

"Recreation, at least in the sense we know it today, did not exist in the early days of Haddonfield," according to Lost Haddonfield, by Douglas B. Rauschenberger and Katherine Mansfield Tassini. "Life was much harder, work was more physical and there was not much time for leisure activities. The Puritan spirit that repressed pleasure was certain alive in the early Quakers, who were not interested in certain worldly things."
