EVENT #1: GO ALL OUT POOL PARTY
Use this event to celebrate the opening of your community pool, or just another day of swimming on a nice day. Don’t have a pool amenity? You can still invite residents to cool off and enjoy this event by providing sips and goodies for them to enjoy.
EVENT #2: GRAB & GO BEACH BASKETS
Grab-and-go events are an all-time favorite. These Flippin’ Fun Beach Baskets go for $5.16 a piece, with the price being adjustable to fit your community’s budget.
Here are a few ideas on how to adjust the baskets to fit your budget:
Remove an item or two from the baskets shown.
Create a select number of baskets and advertise them as “first come, first served” or “while supplies last.”
EVENT #3: GO VIRTUAL SOCIAL GAMES
Life is busy! If you don’t have the time or energy to host an event, make it a goal to at least interact with your community online by posting some quotes, games, or reels.
How our designs work:
Reel Personality Pickers: Encourages them to screenshot their result and repost, tagging your community.
Flip Flop Personality & This or That: Encourages them to screenshot their result, circle their answer, and repost, tagging your community.
Black & White Designs: Encourages them to decorate the design, repost, and tag, or print and color the page, post, and tag!
