2026 Pond Parties
June 19 - July 13
Two More Pond Parties Are Coming Up — Don’t Miss Out!
We’ve got two more Pond Parties on the calendar, and trust me… you’re going to want to be there.
Word on the water is that the fish are planning to be on their very best behavior. They might even put
on a show — no promises, but the koi have been rehearsing.
And yes… the algae will be growing. But that’s half the fun. You’ll get to chat with the homeowners
about what they’re doing to manage it, what’s working, what’s not, and how their bogs are behaving (or
misbehaving). That is the question.
These parties are the perfect chance to:
• See real ponds in real conditions
• Learn what other pond keepers are trying
• Swap stories, tips, and maybe a few “don’t do what I did” moments
• Enjoy a relaxed backyard hangout with fellow pond lovers
So grab your calendar, dust off your lawn chair, and get signed up. The ponds are ready, the fish are
ready, and the hosts are ready — we just need you.
We have a few Parties on the books…….

Come and enjoy our 15’x20’ pond featuring a waterfall, bog with many plants and floating flowers. There
are about 20 Koi fish that loved to be talked to and admired. They are all a little vain. There is also
another pond that displays a gurgling rock. The yard has several gardens, firepits and many seating areas
to walk around and enjoy. To hot, step into the 10’x20’ gazebo to relax and enjoy the overhead fans.
