Universal Photo ID Card & Pool Pass
Are your pool passes beat up and in need of replacement? Is your six-year-old now 12? This year only, we are offering free pool preplacement passes. We are also taking pictures at three locations:

- Ackerman Sports & Fitness Center
- Main Street Recreation Center
- Spring Avenue Recreation Center

If you have had your picture taken for Ackerman Sports & Fitness Center, this will also serve as your pool pass. Renew your pool pass membership by completing the 2010 Pool Application form. If you do not want to replace your pass, upon payment, your pass will automatically be renewed. Renewal letters will be mailed to 2009 pool pass members during the first week of April. If you did not purchase a pool pass last year, you will need to purchase Universal ID Card for the 2010 season as follows:

- Every member of the family must have a photo taken.Family members need not come in at the same time.
- Photos are taken at Ackerman Sports & Fitness Center, Main Street Recreation Center and Spring Avenue Recreation Center.
- The first member will need to bring in proof of residency, preferably a driver's license or a utility bill with a current address.
- Your Universal Photo ID Card is designed with a bar code that will be read upon entry into the pool. Your family's information will be kept on the database for easier program registration in the future, as well as for pool pass renewal. Save your Universal ID Cards!
- There are no refunds given for pool passes.
