MARLBORO — Fees for the Marlboro Swim Club will be changing for the 2009 season after the Township Council voted 4-0 on Nov. 13 to approve an amendment to a municipal ordinance.
Councilwoman Randi Marder was absent from the meeting.
The 7-acre swim club is on Masepe Trail, off Gordons Corner Road. The facility has four pools and two waterslides. Earlier this year the council approved a shared services agreement with Manalapan which allowed residents of Manalapan to make use of the swim club.
Non-Marlboro residents who want to sign up their child for the swim club’s day camp will see the half-day program price rise to $525 per child (up from $475) and the full-day program will be $725 per child (up from $625) in the 2009 season.
If a child is removed from the program prior to March 31 the swim club will retain an administrative fee of $40. No refunds will be given after March 31.
Marlboro residents can enroll their child in the swim club’s day camp program for $475 per child in the half-day program or $625 per child for the full-day schedule.
Priority for the day camp will be given to Marlboro children, who will be able to register before registration is available to nonresident children, according to information provided by the township.
Changes were also made to the fees charged for party set-ups at the swim club. For two tables and 20 chairs the fee will be $35; previously the cost had been $25. Every additional table will cost $5 and every additional chair will be $1.
The swim club’s policy with guest books will also be different in the 2009 season. Members will be entitled to purchase guest books in an amount to be determined by the Swim Club Division.
The fee for a guest book of 20 coupons will be $60, an increase of $15 from 2008. Guests will be permitted into the swim club only if they are accompanied by a member and upon the presentation of a guest book coupon.
The daily guest ticket fee, including weekdays, weekends and holidays, will be four tickets for adults and two tickets for children and senior citizens.
For guests arriving two hours before closing, a discounted ticket rate will apply except for TGIF, holidays and special occasions and events. The discounted fee will be two tickets for adults and one ticket for children and senior citizens.
A new set of regulations will be printed on the back of each guest book.
The regulations are as follows: “guest book is sold for the exclusive use by the member listed below. The member whose name is listed below must present this book with their valid ID. Guest book void if front/rear cover removed. Coupons are void if detached. Payment for this book is nonrefundable and non-transferable. Coupons used are nonrefundable due to weather conditions.”
The guest books are nonrefundable, but they will not have an expiration date and may be used from season to season. Swim club staff members may purchase guest books for their own use.
