June News from True Pump, Your Pond Store

Greetings!

1996 was a great year - the Colorado Avalanche won their first Stanley Cup and True Pump became Aquascape's first distributor! Now in 2022, we celebrate the Avs winning another championship and True Pump's 50th Anniversary as a company.

What a ride it's been for both the Avs and True Pump, including plenty of highs and lows along the way. Though many things have changed in the last 26 years the one thing that hasn't changed is our commitment to you, our customers. We will continue to provide the quality water feature products and expert advice you've come to expect from us.

In this month's newsletter we have an article about Pondemonium 2022, pond plants, a product update, and this month's Aquascape video.

Happy Pondering,

The True Pump Team

Before You Dig, Think About the Pond Plants

Whether you’re installing a small residential water garden or a large commercial pond, the key to producing one that is both natural-looking and easy to plant is largely determined by how you design the excavation. So, before you dig, think about the plants, which are critical to the health of the pond’s ecosystem.

Building a top-notch pond that looks like Mother Nature created it herself, requires planning and excavating in such a way that you can accommodate the variety of aquatic plants at the various depths they require to thrive. If you wait to think about the plants until after the pond is installed, you’ve missed your chance to get things right.

This doesn’t mean you need to think ahead about individual plants and specific locations. Instead, think in terms of broad shelves that encompass the ideal water depths for the ranges of plants you want to include.

Jo and Tim had a great time playing golf and supporting Christian World Outreach! It was a fun outing for a great cause.

Pondemonium

Only 57 more days until Pondemonium 2022, taking place August 27th-30th in St. Charles, IL. As in years past, Aquascape will offer hands-on training, networking opportunities galore, classroom sessions, award ceremonies, good food, fun and camaraderie, and the ever-popular blow-out bash.

Whether you’re an experienced pond builder or are just getting started on your professional water feature journey, you’ll find the inspiration and education you crave to take your business to the next level.

We can honestly say, now more than ever, that this year’s Pondemonium will be the best one yet! After two years of having a virtual event, it's time for all of us from across the country to get together in-person and catch up on old times and hear what’s new.

Independence Day

A reminder that True Pump will be closed Saturday, July 2nd and Monday, July 4th for Independence Day. We want to wish all of you a safe and happy 4th celebrating the birth of our country!
