National Cooler Day
Keeping things cool is about more than just a state of mind. It’s actually about keeping drinks and food at the right temperature!
National Cooler Day arrives ahead of the summer season to act as a reminder that coolers are a summer essential.
So don’t wait until the last minute – get ahead of the hot weather and keep everything cool, especially throughout the next several months of summer.
How to Celebrate National Cooler Day
Stay super cool this summer with lots of cool drinks, ice, chill snacks and more! National Cooler Day can be celebrated in a range of ways, including some of these ideas:
Get Out That Cooler
For those who have a cooler that has been sitting untouched in the garage or basement all winter long, it’s time to dig it out.
Or if it’s missing, try to remember which friend it was loaned to last! Typically a bit of cleaning is needed after the end of a period of storage, so be sure to wipe the cooler clean with soap and water or baking soda and water, depending on the manufacturer’s instructions.
Now it’s ready for National Cooler Day as well as the other exciting events during the summer where it will be that cooling buddy.
Make Plans for Using a Cooler
Obviously, National Cooler Day is here to encourage people to use their coolers at their favorite events all throughout the summer.
From a day at the beach to a picnic at the local park, from a day filled with kids’ baseball tournaments to an epic road trip, there are a myriad of reasons to employ the use of a cooler!
Invite friends over for a grill party on National Barbecue Day, head out to the beach for National Beach Day or enjoy eating outside all throughout July in honor of National Picnic Month.
Purchase a New Cooler
For those folk who don’t already have a cooler or have one that was leaking or not working well last year, then it might be time to start shopping.
Do some homework in advance and consider purchasing a cooler that is eco-friendly, made with recycled plastic, or has some other sustainability features.
Some options for environmentally friendly coolers include brands that are made from coconut husks, which makes them entirely biodegradable, compostable and natural.
Others might be made out of recycled paper waste, recycled tree pulp, wax and various other sustainable choices.
History of National Cooler Day
The first celebration of National Cooler Day took place in 2019 when it was founded by the company, RTIC Outdoors out of Houston, Texas.
The company is a supplier of rotomolded coolers, which offer excellent cooling capabilities with optimal temperature and ice retention.
National Cooler Day is scheduled to take place annually during this time as a kick-off to the Memorial Day weekend as it represents the beginning of the summer. It’s a great time to locate, source, clean and get everything cooler-ready in advance of so many fun activities.
