Key Fob & Amenity Access Card System to Access Salt Pond Recreational Facilities:  In October 2020, The Salt Pond Board of Directors approved the use of an electronic system for homeowners, guests, and renters to use our recreational facilities.  Beginning in November/December 2020, homeowners will be assigned electronic key fobs for their use only.  Homeowners will also be assigned a certain number of Amenity Access Cards for use by guests and renters; however, renters may also purchase Amenity Access Cards.  At the same time, we will implement an online reservation system for the use of most amenities.  Users may access an amenity only during the time period reserved via the  online reservation system and must leave when their reserved time period expires.  We anticipate that the reservation system will be in place at least until the State of Delaware and the CDC withdraw their COVID-19 guidelines.  For more information, check the rules which are under Governance > Rules & Regulations > Rules For Use Of Facilities And Amenities  By Homeowners, Family, Guests, And Renters.  The first step is to complete the below “Key Fob and Amenity Access Card Agreement.” 
 
Key Fob and Amenity Access Card Agreement:  All homeowners must sign the below Agreement to receive a key fob, even those who already have a fob.  Please print the 2-page Agreement, and attach a passport-style photo or a photo of your driver’s license.  If you currently have a fob, you don’t need to submit a photo because you already did that.  Submit your signed Agreement & photo to Salt Pond Management by mailing it to Salt Pond Management Office, 400 Bethany Loop, Bethany Beach, DE 19930; or dropping it in the locked box located in the mailroom.
