Apr. 20, 2009—Guests visiting the H20oohh! indoor water park at the Split Rock Resort & Golf Club, located in the western region of Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains, need not carry wallets, purses, credit cards or cash. Instead, they can use wristbands to enter the park, pay for food and store items in on-site lockers. The four-season resort is employing an RFID-enabled solution from Bartronics America, a wholly owned subsidiary of Bartronics.

The Proximities RFID system, originally developed by Proximities Inc. and acquired by Bartronics in February 2008, leverages the GO waterproof wristband, which has an embedded 13.56 MHz RFID chip compliant with the ISO 15693 standard. Split Rock first began using the system at its water park in October 2008, and now hands out between 9,000 and 10,000 RFID-enabled wristbands each month.
