PHOTO IDS
Prior members – We will be reusing your most recent pool photo ID card, 2019, 2018, or 2017. Please locate your card before coming to the pool office to join or before coming to the pool for the first time.
New members – You will need to have your picture taken for your photo ID on or before your first visit to Antietam Pool. We suggest you come to the office during preseason hours (Wed, Th, F – 5:30 to 8PM and Sat 9 am – noon) to have your picture taken even if you have already joined online. It will make your first trip to the pool after we open on May 23 easier for you!! 🙂
