Question
Answer
What types of ID cards do you provide?
There are 3 types of ID cards:
Permanent (Family, Double, Single)
Associate (Family, Double, Single, Renter)
Child Care (Non Live-in Child Care)
Do I need an ID card?
Anyone with a membership to OHSTC age 4 and up as of January 1 of each membership year is required to have an ID card. This includes non live-in child care providers/visitors.
What if I have a card from last year?
We have a new check-in system so cards from previous years are no longer valid. Feel free to recycle or scrapbook it.
Will I be reissued a card each year?
Cards will be issued to new members and members who have switched Membership Types (e.g. Associate to Permanent). At this time, cards will be reused for the duration of the membership. Please see OHSTC Membership Card Terms and Restrictions below for complete details.
What if I lost my card?
The first issuance of the new card is free! There is a $5 Replacement Fee for lost or stolen cards.
Where can I pick up my ID card?
Completed cards will be ready for pick-up at Team Registration, Open House, and at the Pool House entrance once the pool is open for the season. It is the member’s responsibility to check in with the guard at the desk and tell them they have an ID card to pick up.
How do I get my picture for the card?
You may email us a digital picture or mail us a hard copy of each person in need of an ID card (details can be found at Member Submissions under OHSTC Membership Card Terms and Restrictions below). You can also email cards@orangehuntswimclub.org and make arrangements to have you picture taken. Someone will be available at Team Registration, Open House, and opening weekend to take your picture.
