Pool schedule - excellent idea Leesa - hope you are doing well....
Leesa...your Calendar of Events for Wake Forest NC is the "go to place" for people to find out what is happening in your area! You do such a great job with this!
Leesa - Our local pool has been closed for some remodeling, but thankfully like the Holding Park Pool it's back open just in time for summer.
Great Localism posts highlighting all these events. I am certainly a pool fan myself because it does get hoot here in Texas in the summer!

Leesa, a wealth of information...and a sure sign of summer when the community pool opens for the season. Memorial day kicks it off for the mountains as well. Your posts are a great way to keep up on all the local activities in Wake Forest.
Good evening ma'am,
Another calendar full of fun things for the Wake Forest peeps to do.
Thanks, Kathy - -I am! I can't believe the summer season is upon us though.....
Thanks, Thom - I really appreciate that! There is just so much going on here that I just HAVE to get the word out!
You can really tell summer is upon us, Michelle, with all the pools gearing up! Glad to hear yours is "open for the crowds" this season!
Thanks, Russell! Totally a sign of the hot months ahead for us! Probably not as hot as Texas but...... :)
Thanks, Steve! Yes, a TRUE sign of summer is right around the corner!
You know it's ALWAYS like this Don! Never boring here in my little Wake Forest!!!!
