THE SWEETWATER BLOG

Hello, August!

Before we dive into a new month, we want to pause and extend our heartfelt condolences to all those affected by the devastating July 4th flooding in the Texas Hill Country. Our thoughts are with the families and communities facing the difficult road to recovery.

As we turn the page to August, we're reminded that a new month brings new beginnings. Summer may be winding down, but there’s still plenty to celebrate—starting with a few fun and quirky August dates!

Mark your calendar for:

• Aug 1: Sandcastle & Sculpture Day, Spider-Man Day, and International Beer Day
• Aug 2: National Ice Cream Sandwich Day
• Aug 7: National Beach Party Day
• Aug 9: Book Lover’s Day & Garage Sale Day
• Aug 15: National Relaxation Day

• Aug 20: Lemonade Day
• Aug 24: Peach Pie Day
• Aug 30: International Bacon Day
• Aug 31: Diatomaceous Earth Day (yes, it’s a thing!)
