RESIDENT ID CARDS
If you have a Resident ID Card and you do not use it at the pool

daily admissions, than you do not need to get a new Resident ID
card until your current card expires. Current Resident ID Cards
with valid expiration dates will still be accepted at Armitage
Golf Course and the Yard Waste Facility.
If you have a Resident ID Card that is expired and you don’t
plan on using it for the swimming pool, you may stop by anytime and renew your residency status during regular business
hours.
REGISTRATION PROCEDURES FOR A
HAMPDEN POOL MEMBERSHIP
The Township's Pool Membership ID card, which includes a
photo of the member, will be used again in 2016. See below
for information about obtaining a pool membership card.
If you have a Resident ID Card that is expired and you do plan
on using it at the swimming pool for discounted daily admission,
you will need to wait until after March 15, 2016 to obtain a new
card in person at the Recreation Department during normal business hours.
After the application and payment is processed by the Recreation Department, the membership card will be valid for the
2016 pool season. When an individual presents his/her card at
the pool, membership status will be verified by use of a barcode and scanner system. As a reminder, cards will be reused
on an annual basis until the expiration date listed on the card.
It is not necessary to have all members of the family present at
the same time for photos to be processed by the Recreation
Department. Additional photo sessions have been established

COURSE & USE OF THE YARD WASTE FACILITY
POOL MEMBERSHIP CARDS
The Township's Resident ID card, which is used for discount
rates at the Pool and Armitage Golf Course as well as use of the
yard waste facility, includes a photograph of the resident.
Because of the Rec Department’s software upgrade, all 2016
pool members three years of age and older, whether you are
renewing your old membership or obtaining one for the first
time, will need a new Pool Membership Card. This can be
accomplished one of three ways.
The card, which is the same card used for a pool membership,
will have a barcode that will be scanned by a computer to verify
residency status. Residents who want the free ID card can have
their photo taken from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through
Friday at the Recreation Department. You may also attend any
of the extended office hours.
1). Get your picture taken at the Recreation Office during regular business hours or extended offices hours. Cards will be
processed at a later time and will be available to be picked
up at the recreation office before the pool opens for the season or at the pool front desk once the pool opens for the
summer.
Individuals 21 years of age and older must provide their own
proof of residency. Children who don't have a form of identification must be accompanied by a parent to obtain the discount
card.
2). Get your picture taken at the Pool after it opens for the season. Cards will be processed at a later time and will be available to be picked up at the pool front desk on your next visit.
The card will entitle a resident to a discount of $3off greens
fees, $1 off after-hours and on 9 hole rates, and $1 off weekend/holiday cart fees at Armitage. The card gets you a $2.00
discount off weekday (Mon.-Fri) daily admission and $5.00 off
weekend/holiday (Sat. & Sun.) daily admission at the pool.
Residents must present a photo ID card to receive the discount.
Without the card a resident must pay the entire fee.
3). Email head shots of those needing to get their new cards
processed. Send photos to parksdept@hampdentownship.us.
Please put your last name in the subject line, followed by “ID
Cards”. (For example, if the main contact for your family has
the last name “Williams”, this is what it should look likeSubject: Williams ID Cards.) Make sure to label your photo to
correspond with the names on your account.

NEW SOFTWARE ANOUNCEMENT
The software that the Recreation Department uses to register
individuals for programs, trips and memberships is getting a
major overhaul. Starting in March 2016, the Department will
unveil Active Net to the public. This exciting upgrade will
permit you to register and pay for programs, sign up for your
pool membership or apply to rent a facility all from the convenience of your computer, tablet or smart phone!
Since we will be starting with a fresh user database, all users
looking to take advantage of the online capabilities will need
to create a new account. Unlike our old system, once you have
your account set up, you will then be able to log on to your
online account with your email address and a password of your
choosing. (NOTE- If you’ve purchased a 2016 Pool Membership, your new account will be already be established, and you
will not need to create a new account)
The new system has many great benefits and is extremely easy
to use! Search for your favorite program by keyword, age, day,
time, location and more! You may even discover a new program or trip along the way! Camp parents will be able to
print out tax receipts! Purchase swim memberships online!
No longer will you have to fill out a paper application! Save
your pool membership card to your smart phone! No more
forgotten cards! Keep an eye on the Township and Recreation
Department Website for future updates! See page 26 for more
information on Pool Membership/Res ID cards.
