While opening your swimming pool is one of the big parts to creating an ideal pool party in Houston, there are more things that you need to think about when you are starting your pool prep. In this article, we are going to help you put a plan together so you can throw an amazing Summer pool party.
Food at the Pool Party
The pool is important but so is the food. This is why you want to make sure you safely prepare the food and ensure it tastes amazing. You can do this by making sure you clean your grill after each time that you use it. If you haven’t used your grill yet this year, you definitely need to make sure that you go over it and ensure it is clean. The supplies you might need are a wire brush, rag, paper towels, cooking oil and non-abrasive cleaning supplies.
After winter, you will need to check the mechanics of the grill. You can look at the fuel lines and see if the gas is able to flow properly. You need to look over any defects or damage and see if the gas tank is in good condition. Use soap and waste to test the lines and make sure there are no gas leaks. Before you clean your grill, you need to make sure that you have disconnected it all the way.
If you notice any part of your grill is not in proper working order then you need to make sure to replace or repair it right away. Working with a gas grill that is not properly taken care of is unsafe.
Have a Theme
When you are setting up a pool party, it is a lot of fun to have a theme. You might make it something nautical or if it is around a specific holiday, you can theme it around that holiday. Holidays like memorial day or 4th of july, you can have a lot of red, white and blue.
You can use your theme for the decorations, the invites and even the food. If you run out of ideas you can always search online to see different party photos from other people that have been enjoying their pool parties.
Party Safely
If you plan on having adult beverages at your pool party, make sure that you are being safe. Keep the drinks out of reach of children and always make sure there are life vests and other life saving equipment available in case anything should happen. Having adult supervision is important when children are around a swimming pool. Also keep an eye on people that may not be safe to swim.
Having a pool party is a lot of fun and whether you have a few close friends or you have a group of people coming over, a pool party can be a relaxing way to set off your weekend or holiday. Contact us today to get your own pool or do an upgrade on your current pool.
