Rec Pass Membership
What is a Rec Pass?
The Rec Pass is available to both residents and non-residents. The card allows for free daily admission to the Valdez City Pool and reduced rates on Parks & Recreation programs, events, and facility rentals. The Rec Pass is FREE for Valdez residents with proof of residency. Non-residents may purchase a Rec Pass in three-month increments.
The Rec Pass is completely optional and is not required to register for any Parks & Recreation programs. The card simply allows the cardholder reduced rates on Parks & Recreation services. Anyone who chooses not to use the Rec Pass program will pay all program fees and be subject to daily admission fees at the swimming pool.
Rec Pass Benefits
- Free daily admission to the Valdez City Pool.
- 10% discount on program registration and facility rentals*.
- Benefits are subject to change based on community needs and department resources.
- *Discount does not apply to facility rental scheduling fees or rental add-ons.
How Do I Get a Rec Pass?
Rec Pass cards may be obtained at the Woodman Recreation Center or Valdez City Pool. Please bring proper proof of residency or military service (see requirements below). We will not be able to issue a Rec Pass without proper documentation. Each family member will need his or her own card to receive card benefits. Youth (ages 3-17) must be accompanied by a parent/guardian to receive a Rec Pass.
