I have a pool with a pool house stored with a pooltable, foosball table, and darts. I suck at parties. Any tips?

Hey, its your Sweet Sixteen and you have a pool! How great is that???? Here are some thoughts for your special day:

1. Invite only your closest friends.
2. Plan for a party that starts in the afternoon but might run into the evening.
3. Have a barbecue! Polish Sausage, Angus burgers with cheese, potato salad etc. Throw in a carved out watermelon with fresh fruit and some brown sugar and sour cream to dip in, and you've got a decent menu.
4. Have lots of non-alcoholic beverages and mock cocktails
5. Great music is a must!
6. Corny as it is, get a pinata.
7. If your closest friends are only girls, then have someone from Mary Kay Cosmetics come to do facials.
8. If there's guys, see if you can hire a Hawaiian dance troop to entertain with the hula. Lessons should be included!
9. As evening approaches, light candles, mini white lights, lanterns etc. If you have a "fire pit" light it too, and don't forget the hot tub.
10. Munchies only in the evening, otherwise its too much work: hollowed out bread bowls with spinach and artichoke dip, foot-long sandwiches like Togo's or Subway, chips and dips, trail mix, left over salads.....or order pizza.
11. Have a spectacular birthday cake!
12. Remember you only turn 16 once, so have fun on your special day and dream about the fun you'll have all year long!

hire a dj, rent a chocolate waterfall and buy fresh fruits like strawberries, bananas, kiwis to dip in it with those shish-ko-bob sticks, fill the pool with balloons for fun or you can rent a volleyball net from the local community/activity center for the pool, since the party is for underage people, you could also make non alcoholic cocktails, those are so yummy!!! just have fun with it...16 only comes once and it has to be special and something the teens will remember for years to come-good luck.

Be sure that You and your friends are safe around the pool and that you have a designated photographer to capture the event for you. 16 only comes once and you will want to have the photos for the future.

Have a good mix of music. Maybe you can grill food, everyone loves cheeseburgers and hotdogs. If you have cold drinks, good food, games and music everyone will be able to have a good time. Happy 16th Birthday to you!
