One reviewer claims 50 gallons in two minutes. Understand that this is going to be a LOT of work, quick numbers tell me that 10x10x4 of water is 400 Cubic Feet, 7.5 gallons per cubic foot equals out to 3,000 gallons of water.
Assuming the random person giving the review of 25 gallons/minute is accurate, this is two hours of straight pumping, and likely much slower due to the height difference.
The real question is, assuming you can pump all of this water with a cheap pump: Are you sure it isn't just going to fill right back up as you empty it?
Your diagram shows a body of water off to the side, this very well could be the reason it has water, and you won't be emptying the pond anytime soon.
I'll end you with final thoughts on structural integrity, you noted it was old, any idea how long it has been flooded for? Most materials don't take well to being under water for for extended amounts of time.
Regardless of all that I have said, go for it! It sounds like fun! Blow a few bucks on a pump, and go have a good workout. :P
