Pool parties are a great way to make new friends and enjoy the sun while staying cool. Soak up the sun this summer with all your closest friends; invite the neighbors too! Here are some tips to planning an awesome summer pool party
- Make a list of all the friends you’d like to invite and send invitations 2 weeks before the party. With ample time, people will be able to leave the date open to hang out and relax in the pool. Also tell guests if they need to bring anything such as a towel.
- Now it’s time to plan what types of food and beverages you would like to serve. It’s better to stick with lighter foods since guests will be swimming. Chips, fruits and vegetables are always great with dips and some light deli sandwiches. For drinks, any beverage is fine. A variety of juices, sodas, and water are just fine
- As for the day of the party, make sure there is an area in your apartment where guests will be able to change. Also, make sure there are enough seats at the pool for all your friends. One table can be set up with food, plates, and napkins and the other with drinks, ice, and cups.
- Set up an ipod with some speakers or a stereo so guests can relax and mingle when they arrive. It’s always nice to have some background music.
- Plan some activities too so that guests can interact with each other if they don’t know each other very well. Pool games are great for getting people to loosen up a bit. Swimming contests, marco polo, and tag are just a few pool games that are really fun to play.
- Most importantly, have fun and don’t forget the sunscreen!
