Ken Buchmyer started working at Penguin Pools during his Jr. high school years. He began as a yard boy, cleaning covers and unloading trucks. When he turned 16, he began painting the white lines for the pool layout in preparation for the dig. The following summer, at age 17, he was working full time on the inground crew. He continued learning everything about inground pools and progressed to foreman of his own crew. Ken left the pool business in the early 1970s and went to work full-time at Harley Davidson as a plumber, but he always dreamed of having his own pool business. In 1981 Buchmyer's Economy Pools was started as Ken began doing swimming pool work on the side while continuing to work full-time at Harley. Ken opened our current location at 713 Arsenal Rd. in 1984, at which time his wife Susie joined the business full-time. The early days of the retail store were extremely slow, actually, and they were bored to tears most of the first couple of years. Construction was steady, but nothing like it is today, as Ken did most of the construction as a one-man operation. He also did all of the sales and service himself. As the business continued to grow, Ken quit Harley Davidson in 1988 and we incorporated in July and became Buchmyer's Pools, Inc In Spring 2003 we continued our growth as we opened our 2nd retail store location in Hanover. We have been very blessed throughout this journey. We owe much gratitude to our many dedicated and hardworking team and customers. Thank you!
