Memorial Weekend hits a little different in Arizona.

The grill’s going. The music’s on. Kids are in the pool before breakfast and somehow still swimming after sunset.

These are the weekends backyards were made for.

Wishing everyone a safe, relaxing Memorial Weekend spent with family, friends, and the people who matter most ❤️🤍💙

And most importantly, we pause to honor and remember those who made these moments possible 🇺🇸 🥾🪖

Summer pool memories should be fun memories. ☀️💦

May is Pool Safety Month, Skip Ast III from Shasta Pools sat down with Talks to discuss one of the most important parts of pool ownership: mindset!

Even with gates, alarms, and safety features in place, awareness and supervision remain the biggest factors in preventing accidents around water 🚨🛟

Skip also shared a personal experience rescuing a child during a family gathering, proving how quickly situations can change, even in environments that feel completely safe.

Tip #1: Have a designated “pool watcher” at all times. 👀

If that person needs to grab food, step away, or leave the pool area, they “tag” another adult in before walking away. Simple, but incredibly important during busy summer gatherings and graduation parties.

As we head into nonstop Arizona pool season, this is a conversation worth watching.

Some projects are about building pools. Some are about building the place your kids will remember forever ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We loved receiving this review from the Krikorian family after completing their new Shasta pool project.

She specifically highlighted Jennifer, their project coordinator, for being proactive, organized, knowledgeable, and making the entire process feel smooth and even enjoyable from start to finish.

“We had absolutely zero issues because she was so on top of everything.”

Huge shoutout to Jennifer for the stellar communication and ex*****on and the entire Shasta team for creating an experience that felt smooth, organized, and exciting from start to finish.

Because building a pool should feel just as good as enjoying it.

And honestly…seeing these kiddos enjoy their new backyard might be the best part of it all.

Thank you, Alexandra , for trusting Shasta with your family’s backyard memories.
