Summer is the smell of hot dogs and hamburgers being flipped by the grill master while others relax, drink their favorite beverages and enjoy the music. It’s roasting marshmallows on a cool night while seated in a comfy camping chair and wrapped in a warm blanket.
It’s also having your logo on essentials perfect for maximizing outdoor gatherings. Our merchandisers Mae and Melanie dished out tips on imprinted summer promo products that are ideal from the time the sun’s up and the grill is out to when the sun’s down and the chill is out.
Nothing says summer like a BBQ
Chefs can dress the part with the BBQ Now Apron and Set, which “keeps the included tools within reach and helps protect clothing from those messy BBQ splatters,” said Mae. Accompany the food and flames with a Master Grill Set that has everything needed to serve up a masterpiece grilled dish and a side, like corn on the cob.
Let them lounge with your logo in the GCI Outdoor® Freestyle Rocker Chair, which is easy to carry and offers a comfortable spot at a BBQ. The large-capacity Chill Out Vacuum Mug with Straw means they can relax awhile before needing a refill.
Essential summer promo items for a picnic or backyard gathering
The Tiki Outdoor Wireless Speaker Lantern provides music for a picnic during the day and lights the path at night. Great for containing supplies all in one spot, the Ridge Picnic Basket “holds picnic or watch-party essentials while keeping everything chilled,” said Melanie.
When their picnic is over or the fireworks are done, the Picnic/Stadium Blanket rolls up and transports easily. The Koozie® Folding Wagon is a perfect way to haul things across the yard or to the park down the road. It folds to fit anywhere after managing the heavy hauling.
Camping gear that brings good vibes
A camping trip allows them to escape the pressures of daily life and spend time with other nature lovers. Give them the Koozie Camp Hammock, compact and lightweight for transport—and an excellent way to unwind on their next trip. The Wrap Around Camping Blanket “provides the perfect warmth for those cooler mornings or chilly later nights while camping—especially since my automatic revolving camp chair hasn’t been invented yet to keep me warm from all angles by the fire,” said Mae.
Add more warmth with an Acadia Camp Travel Mug, a stylish companion for coffee or tea while cozied up around a campfire. Marshmallows and hot dogs can be easily roasted with the Heritage Supply Campfire Roasting Sticks. They’re compact and store easily in their camper or with other camping gear for next time.
Coolers help with outdoor events
It’s important to make sure guests have easy access to drinks when it’s hot outside. This Koozie Party Cooler can be filled with ice, bottles, cans and juice boxes for guests to help themselves. The handy integrated bottle opener makes cracking open a cold one quick.
Contents can be quickly accessed through the top hatch of the Igloo® Seadrift Coast Cooler—no need to unzip and open the whole cooler. Bonus tip: “Stuff insulated can holders or can coolers in the side elastic pockets so guests can grab their drink and a can insulator at the same time,” suggested Melanie.
Refreshments can be hauled around in the Arctic Zone® Titan Deep Freeze Rolling Cooler that also has a quick-access top opening. This cooler has a rolling cart so it can be easily moved to different areas where guests are mingling.
