Jan's Family Restaurant

Not confirmed open this year

A table-service restaurant in Three Springs borough, Huntingdon County, named on an East Broad Top railroad tourism page.

Three Springs Borough Community Pool sits on Elliots Run Road in Three Springs, in southern Huntingdon County. The borough's own post lists the season, the hours, a phone number, and forms for membership and rentals. The pool opened in 1969, according to the Huntingdon Daily News, and a group called the Friends of the Three Springs Community Pool formed in 2023 when rumors said it might close.

The pool area has a splash zone for younger children and water slides for bolder swimmers. In 2026 the daily rate was $5 a person, and children under 3 entered free. Season passes for individuals and families are sold, and the pool rents out for parties. The borough scheduled the 2026 season for May 25 through August 16, and the Daily News reported that the pool opened on May 25.

The Friends group holds fundraisers and clean-up days, and the borough shares the work of running the pool. A group member said the pool brings together the kids and the adults.
