MEMBER INFORMATION Each NEW family will be issued two Bath & Tennis Club ID cards. Each RETURNING family will use their ID cards from the previous year. The ID cards will be bar-coded and labeled with the family name. This Bath & Tennis Club ID card must be presented and scanned at the checker’s stand in front of the clubhouse in order to gain entrance into the facility. The ID card will be returned to you once the checker has scanned it. The pool will not replace any ID cards left at the facility or with staff members. There will be no exceptions to this rule. If a member of your family already has your ID card inside the pool, the checker will page the member to bring the card to the front entrance. Babysitters (age 14 and older) accompanying member’s children will be allowed to enter the pool if the family has paid the $25.00 annual fee. When the ID card is scanned the information will appear on the family’s profile. A member ID card is to be used only by the family named on that pass. This is of the utmost importance in case of an emergency. Any member using their ID card to allow free pool entry to a non-member will lose membership privileges for their family the remainder of the season and jeopardize renewal for the following season. No refunds will be issued to members who violate pool rules. LOST ID CARDS: Replacement cost for two ID cards will be $15.00. If you lose one of your cards, you will have two options. Either continue using your one remaining ID card OR purchase two new ID cards for $15.00. All ID cards are printed in sets of two; therefore, you cannot purchase a single card. To replace ID cards, complete the “Request for Replacement Form” which can be obtained from the pool manager. The completed form and the $15.00 payment must be turned into the pool manager to process the request. New ID cards will be available to be picked up at the pool within 48 hours.
