Swimming is one of life’s great pleasures. It offers many health and fitness benefits, cools you off in the summer and provides a great opportunity to socialize with family and friends.

Here are 5 tips on how you can keep it cool this summer!

Freeze your water bottles. You won’t be able to drink them right away, but the water will stay colder for a longer period of time.

Instead of freezing water in the ice tray, try freezing juice or tea. Not only will you look cool, but you will stay cool as well!

Wear clothing made from cotton. It’ll help your skin breathe easier than wearing heavy synthetic material.

Invest in a spray bottle. There’s nothing like a cold, refreshing mist of water to help cool down in the hot Garland sun.

Go to a Garland Waterpark! The City of Garland offers many community swimming pools for you and your family to chill out and keep it cool during the long, hot summer days in Texas. So, be sure to take advantage of the opportunity.
