• If two children come to Open Swim in the morning and the parents join later that day, only one punch is used.
• If the family comes to the pool, leaves and returns later that same day, only one punch is used.
• If one family member uses the pass on Monday and the full family returns Tuesday, a new punch is used for Tuesday.
