WE'RE DEALING WITH GROPP'S LAKE HERE, FOLKS. MANY VISITORS TO THIS SITE MAY BE SURPRISED TO LEARN THAT THE BEAUTIFUL SPRING-FED LAKE ON SOUTH BROAD STREET IN THE LAKESIDE PARK-YARDVILLE HEIGHTS AREA HAS AN INTERESTING HISTORY. ONCE KNOWN AS LOWRIES' MILLS, KIRBY MILLS, AND HUTCHINSON'S POND, IT WAS A VERY POPULAR SWIMMING AND BEACH AREA BACK IN THE 30'S AND 40'S WHEN WE ALL CALLED IT "LAKESIDE." TODAY IT'S GROPP'S LAKE; NAMED FOR THE PROMINENT GROPP FAMILY FROM THE WHITE HORSE-LAKESIDE PARK-YARDVILLE HEIGHTS AREA.
