The Bathing Pavilion at Olentangy Park originally was a "bathhouse" in the 1890s and a building was built and opened in 1900.[1] It was located in the ravine, across from the boat dock, and provided amenities of a beach such as dressing rooms separated by gender along the Olentangy River. In 1906, the cost to enter was 10 cents ($3 in 2021) for children and 15 cents ($4.50 in 2021) for adults.[2]
