For most people, that back-to-school feeling is reserved for the kids. However, if you’re an adult who never quite mastered swimming, or someone who wants a low-impact workout that actually sounds enjoyable, we are here to tell you that September is your season, too.

If you’ve spent any time watching swim meets or looking out across our pool here in Norfolk, you know there is one stroke that instantly catches everyone’s eye.

Can you believe it’s already July, Norfolk? It feels like just yesterday we were packing up the backpacks for the last day of school. But now, we’ve officially hit the middle of summer.

Diving Into Summer: What to Expect at the Norfolk Outdoor Pool

May is one of our favorite months at Katie’s Kickers. The sun is staying out longer, the air is warming up, and we are officially moving back to our outdoor heated pool! But May also carries a very important title: National Water Safety Month.

If you’ve lived in Hampton Roads for a few seasons, you know that April is the month when everything suddenly blooms. But it’s not just the azaleas at the Norfolk Botanical Garden that are reaching for the sun, your kids are likely doing the same!
