Preparing For A Special 4th of July
In this episode of the Cabana Club Communique, we’re going to share some ways to prepare for a special 4th of July.

To prepare for the special 4th, we dug around to see some fun and interesting things to liven up the party. We also found some good news from our friends over at swimmingpool.com, who shared with us that “the CDC says COVID-19 cannot survive in properly treated pool water.” It makes sense to us but it’s always good to get confirmation. Our first story from USA Today distills the CDC’s guidelines for enjoying your pool this 4th of July.
