☀️🏊 End of Summer Pool Party! 📚🎒

 

Come celebrate the end of summer with us at our Family Pool Party! We’ll be enjoying three hours of fun in the pool, giving families the chance to relax, play, and make memories before the school year begins.

 

We’ll also have a back-to-school photo backdrop available so you can snap some fun pictures with your friends and family before heading back to class!

 

As part of this event, we’re also collecting school supply donations to help local students start the school year prepared. If you’re able, we’d love for you to bring a donation to support children in our community.

 

Bring your swimsuit, invite your friends, and join us for an afternoon of family fun while helping make a difference for local kids. We can’t wait to see you there!
