THE SWEETWATER BLOG

MAY 2026

Things are heating up, and May has officially arrived! That can only mean one thing—summer is right around the corner, school breaks are on the horizon, and the pool is about to become everyone’s favorite place to be. Get ready for long, sunny days, plenty of splashing, and maybe a cannonball or two.

May isn’t just about warmer weather—it’s also packed with a mix of well-known celebrations and some delightfully quirky ones. From honoring loved ones and service members to embracing fun, offbeat traditions (yes, even ones that involve dancing like a chicken), there’s no shortage of reasons to celebrate. And let’s not forget the food—this month practically doubles as a rolling menu of sweet treats, comfort foods, and backyard barbecue favorites that feel right at home here in Texas.

Now that we’ve likely sparked your appetite, here’s what’s in store this month. We’re featuring two standout products: the Poolife Back to Blue Shock System and the Solstice Pup Plank—perfect for keeping your pool in top shape and making it even more enjoyable. You’ll also find helpful articles on the Texas drought and smart pool water use, plus a look at the recreation of a rock legend that’s been generating plenty of buzz.

We’ve also rounded up fun things to do around the city for kids, adults, and anyone who’s still a kid at heart, along with a few seasonal recipes worth trying out. Be sure to check out our May pool tips and browse past newsletters on our website for even more ideas and inspiration.



Here’s to a month full of sunshine, good food, and great pool days!
