How do you get a Rec ID card?
There are two options to get a Rec ID card:

2. You can also register online. To register online for Ossining Recreation & Parks programs you must create a free account in Community Pass, and then go to the Catalog and Registration Page to access the Summer Catalog.
ID Card registration office hours
You can get/update a Rec ID card immediately during the following schedule. If you put in the paperwork after these hours, your application will be processed the next day and you’ll need to go back to pick up your ID:

How long is the ossining pool?
Hi Nina
We are not sure, we’ll find out and update our article with the information.
How wide is the pool
Why do town residents pay more for lap swim?
What is the temperature of the pool
Late Fall and Winter: Too cold!! Perhaps 78?
I’d also like to know why town residents pay more.
We are not sure but it might be because the Recreation Center is a Village of Ossining facility.
