Update ID Cards

Over the winter we switched to a new check-in system and unfortunately not all the barcodes for the photo IDs transferred over.  We encourage all members who haven’t used their ID cards since last summer or whose cards aren’t scanning properly to stop by the office so that staff can test the cards and correct the issue if needed.

Swim Reservations

It’s now easier than ever to book a swim lane for lap swimming! To book a swim lane, go to the Pool tab and scroll past the photo of the child swimming. You’ll see the option to book a reservation by the swim lane, starting with the chosen day and then the time. You can book a maximum of 2 hours per day and book 48 hours in advance. Reservations can only be made after the current reservation has been completed. The office will monitor all reservations and will cancel any reservation that does not follow the rules. Reservations can still be made in person and over the phone.

Summer’s Here!

Beginning on Saturday, May 28th there will be gate hosts down at the beach to check members in. You must present your Dollar Point ID card to the gate host for access to the beach and the pool. Please remember that the cardholder must be present, using another member’s card without that member being present will not work. All ID cards from past years are still valid. If a card is having trouble scanning, bring it by the office where we can fix the issue. If you do not have an ID card, swing by the office to get one made!

Summer Jobs

As we’re gearing up for summer, we’re still looking to hire Lifeguards and Gate Hosts. If your child or grandchild is looking for a summer job, send them our way! Below are the job descriptions to read through and an application to fill out. Completed applications can be emailed to info@dollarpoint.org, mailed to P.O.

We’re looking forward to another great summer!
