 In 2006 Haddon Hall converted from the picture ID Cards to Key Fob Access.  Each residence was given a key fob. This system was designed to reduce the need for picture ID Cards, reduce non-member access and increase our ability to determine pool use. If you do not yet have your Key Fob, you can obtain a temporary one from a lifeguard on the day you want to use the pool by:

•  Bringing proof of residency electric bill, copy of lease, etc.
• A photo ID
• All association dues and assessments must be up to date to obtain a pass.

• The pool is for the exclusive use of HHOA members, their caregivers, and their guests. No one will be permitted to use HHOA facilities without an approved HHOA pool pass unless they are a hosted guest.
• Only adult members may host guests
• Adults are defined as 18
• Adults must remain at the pool during the guests stay
• Adults should limit regular guest to 2
• Children under the age of 12 are not permitted in the pool area without proper parent/caregiver supervision.
  • A nanny, babysitter, or otherwise defined caregiver, providing care or supervision at the pool, must be at least 16 years of age. It is the homeowner/parent's responsibility to inform the caregiver of the rules and regulations and their responsibilities while at the pool with the child(ren). It is the parents' responsibility to see that the caregiver is capable of providing care to the child(ren) while in and around the pool.
• Guests are not permitted to remain at the pool without the homeowner with whom they came.
• During peak times, lifeguards have the option to limit access of non-Haddon Hall residents.
• Under the HHOA Clubhouse Rental Agreement, clubhouse rental guests may use the pool during normal operating   hours with the HHOA member present. Refer to the Clubhouse Rental Agreement for specific pool accessibility guidelines.
