MEMBERSHIP CARD UPDATE
Keep your current pink cards with the expiration date of 10/31/2010. DO NOT throw them away. They are still valid. The Association will be transitioning to photo ID plastic cards. With the new system, we can eliminate the forgery problems with the old paper cards and the need to carry photo ID, Vessel Operator's Permit and Member cards.
The new cards will have bar codes and a magnetic strip that safely contain the member's information. Our Public Safety Officers will carry a handheld device that will be able to scan the cards to verify identity, member status and additional information such as: VOP status, Marina Slip Rental, EQ stall Rentals, etc. It will NOT reveal any financial information.
