DIGITAL POOL PASS SYSTEM
The Association has moved to a digital pool pass system. Residents will need to register with Cell Badge to sign your family up and create your digital passes. Here is the link to sign up:

Digital Pool Pass Registration

Everyone over the age of 2 will still need to have the new pass (old passes will no longer be valid). You must upload your own photos into the digital pass - they need to be single person head shots. Once you register, each time that you have to go back into your account, you will need to request a pin and once received, you will use the pin to access the information. Please note that if you are renting the home, then your passes will expire every December 31. Tenants will need to update the office with lease extensions or a new lease.

When you are completing your registration, and are ready to upload your photos, please use headshots only!

When you go to the pool, you will provide your last name, and the guards will check you in. When leaving, you do the same, and the guards will check you out.

Guest passes—For those who have carried over guest passes from last year, AFTER you obtain your digital pass, you will need to bring the punch card to the office to credit your account. The guest passes will also be digital. You may purchase up to 20 guest passes at a time, and then those passes will be loaded onto your account. You must come to the office to purchase the guest passes.

This is still a new system that will take everyone a little bit of time to get used to, but there will be no more lost pool passes, and you will not need to get passes from the office.

Should you have issues with registering your household, please contact the office.

The Fall issue of the Caddy is online and has been emailed to those who have registered on our website. If you would like to have a copy mailed to you, and have not already been placed on the mail list, please contact the office.

There have recently been a lot of additions and changes to properties in the community. The Glenwood Community Association Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Easements requires homeowners to obtain PRIOR approval from the Architectural Control Committee before undertaking improvements, alterations, repairs, change of paint colors, excavations or any other work which in any way alters the exterior appearance of any property within the Association. One of the items that has been noted is a change in fences. No fence, other than a one or 3 board dog eared fence is approved within the Association. The ones with a top cap or a fascia board are not approved.

Payment of the 2023 Assessments may be made on line at Truist Bank. Please follow the link under Resident Info/Assessments. Please refer to your coupon book for the necessary steps. Please note that payments on line through Truist will take up to 4 Business days to be processed.

The Community Room is available for rental to Glenwood Homeowners. Please register on this site and review the information on the Community Center Rental page.
