Games & Activities
The Olympic-Style Swimming Pool Games are 5 events that will challenge your friends to get each other wet, handle slippery melons, and catfight in the pool!
Drinks
Make a Booze Pool by getting a little inflatable pool
, inflating
it, filling it with beer, and throw tons of ice on it. Make a sign that
say ‘Booze Pool’ and everyone can serve themselves!
Also, since you’ll be playing with watermelons, make some Spiked Watermelon!
Food
Skewers of food, pasta salads, and fresh fruit work really well at a pool party. If you want to order in, get wings from your favorite pizza joint.Location
Your swimming pool! Don’t have your own pool? Call a local pool and ask them about parties. Or see if a nearby hotel has any pool party packages!Music Playlist

Invitations
Buy beach balls and write the info on them. Send them uninflated and ask the guests to bring them to the party along with a 6-pack of beer for the booze pool!Decorations
This would be a fun party for a specific color theme! Go red, white & blue if you’re partying in July. Orange and red work well for the summer heat of August. Blue & Green create a tropical feel.Adding a decade is an AWESOME way to add instant fun to your pool party! 80’s Neon or 90’s Hip Hop anyone? If you do add a decade theme, be sure to update your music playlist with tunes from that era.
