It replaces the "Two for Tuesday Special," which has become so popular that the pools have become too crowded on Tuesdays, said resort steward Andy Scott.
Beginning Sept. 1, day guests at Ojo Caliente may purchase 9 visits for $99 with the new "Club New Mexico at Ojo Card." These cards can be used Monday through Thursday but are not valid during holiday periods and are limited to two visits per card per day.
