Swimming Pool Games

Everyone has played the classic swimming pool game of “Marco! Polo!”, right? Now there are many other fun and entertaining pool games that can be played with friends and family!

Here are a few fun swimming pool games!

• Duck Racing: Run to the store and pick up some rubber ducky and waterproof markers. Make a number on the bottom on each ducky. Have each person choose a duck and drop them in the water at the starting point. Pop a balloon for your starter’s pistol and watch the duckies waddle to the other end of the pool. First one to the end WINS!
• Beach Ball Races: Give each guest a beach ball and the one who can push it to the opposite end of the pool, with their NOSE, first becomes the winner.
• Treasure Hunt: Gather up some items from around the house that will sink to the bottom of the pool and are easily visible and maybe some that aren’t so easy to see. Have everyone close their eyes or turn around as you throw the items into the pool. Whoever finds the most treasures wins!
• Raft Race: If you have a long enough pool, have your friends and family get on a raft like inner tube and paddle from one side of the pool to the other using only your hands.
• Marco! Polo!: This classic pool-time favorite is always a great choice. Blindfold one guest and have him/her yell out “Marco!” which the other guests yell out “Polo!” Whoever the blindfolded guest touches becomes “it.”

There are many versions and variation to these games. What fun pool games do you and your friends enjoy playing?

What makes a Sterling Pool better?

Factory engineered, the Sterling wall panel is made of Z-702 (S-235) galvanized corrosion-resistant steel. Its strength is unparalleled. With the five inch flange top and bottom featuring the additional 1” under-turn bend, and out “Z” support ribs, you won’t find a stronger steel panel. In fact, we’re so confident of that strength, are offer a one-time transferable, lifetime warranty on the Sterling pool wall structure.

From the pool walls, coping, and liner to the entry stairs, all substructure components are %100 Fort Wayne Pools. That’s what sets the Sterling Pool miles ahead of the competition.

Will I be a slave to my Sterling pool?

Absolutely not. That wouldn’t be any fun. And fun is what your pool is all about.

Pool maintenance used to be a big time drain. No longer!

Today, thanks to industry technology advances, your pool can be virtually maintenance free. At the same time it provides you with a beautiful vinyl liner, smooth friendly surface and, of course, durability.

Not to mention, considerably less costly. New, cutting edge filtration and sanitation systems use far fewer chemicals than older systems did, and also drastically cut maintenance time. You can expect about an hour each week on maintenance. Ask your dealer for more information specific to your area.
