National swimming pool day

To our PCHOA neighbors with pools, congratulations on owning an item being honored today! National Swimming Pool Day occurs annually on July 11. It’s not only a celebration of swimming pools but also of all the accompanying paraphernalia, including pool toys, accessories, and swimwear. Take a moment to reminisce about your favorite pool memories and make today a special addition to your memory bank.

What makes the perfect pool day? Is it the chance to show off that summer bod, looking fabulous in the latest swimwear designs, or maybe the fact that you love the exercise that swimming provides? Or perhaps you love poolside barbeques and the very thought of it gets your mouth watering. Whatever the reason, we are sure glad that someone long ago thought of the concept of a swimming pool, which makes summer a lot more enjoyable (and the heat more bearable) altogether.

HOW TO CELEBRATE NATIONAL SWIMMING POOL DAY

1. Take a dip: This one was obvious. What better way can there possibly be to celebrate National Swimming Pool Day than diving right into the cool waters of your nearest pool?

2. Visit a water park: A fun day out for the whole gang, visit a water park near you or plan a road trip to some of the more famous ones. There’s no doubt this will be an enjoyable excursion for everyone, young and old! Whether you seek thrills by zipping down water slides or prefer just lazing in a tube and gently drift around, there’s bound to be something for everyone.
