The Swim Advantage Blog

Do me a favor really quick. Pull up the weather app on your phone.
(I’ll wait.)
Look at the forecast. What season are we in right now? Is it summer? Winter? Spring of Deception? Actual Spring? The Pollening? Second Summer?
Oh, hold on. You probably just got hit with a pop-up ad on your app for one of those sketchy games that promises to pay you real-world money for matching colorful blocks.
(I’ll wait through that ad, too.)
(And for you to play one level just to see if it’s actually fun.)
(And for you to ultimately delete the app because it definitely wasn’t.)
Alright, are we back? Good.
Annnnyway… the point is, living out here means the weather is completely unhinged. Planning a party of any kind—whether it’s a kid’s birthday, a team celebration, or an adults’ night out—usually involves a stressful “Plan B” in case it rains, snows, or randomly drops forty degrees overnight.
But what if you didn’t need a Plan B? No matter what that weather app says, a pool party at The Swim Advantage (in Joliet or Orland Park) is a kick-butt way to have a great time.
Here is why you should trade the standard, boring party room for a climate-controlled, entirely weather-proof aquatic bash.
When you book a pool party with us, you’re not sharing the water with fifty strangers or dodging aggressive lap swimmers. You get the whole place to yourselves for a 2-hour block. It is the perfect, stress-free setup. The kids have endless space to burn off their energy, and the parents can actually sit back, relax, and hear themselves think…or play a few games on their phones.
Want to take your event from “fun” to “legendary”? We don’t just give you a pool filled with water (I mean, that’s a given); we give you an experience. You can customize your party with some of our absolute favorite themes:
Why sit on a couch to watch a movie when you could be floating on the water? With our Flick & Float parties, you get to combine two of the best things on earth. We will project the movie of your choice while your guests relax on their floats. It’s exactly like a drive-in theater, but way wetter and infinitely cooler.
Are you looking to trade the pool floats for fins? We also partner with our friends at Dive Right In Scuba! If you want to take your celebration entirely underwater, you can book an unforgettable Scuba Pool Party with them at our facilities.
Whether it is 95 degrees and sweltering or we are currently suffering through Third Winter, our water is always the perfect temperature.
Because every event is completely unique, we don’t do rigid, one-size-fits-all packages. We want to help you build the exact experience you are looking for. So, close that weather app, click the link below, and fill out our quick Rental Request Form. Our team will reach out to help you lock in your date before our calendar fills up!
