Dear taylor

Thank you for letting us use your pools and also giving us green bands. It was so cool getting to relax in the lazy pool. Everyone had a great time and that is because of you.

One of my highlights was swimming all the way to the bottom of the deep pool and touching the bottom. It was really deep but that made it more challenging and fun.

So thank you so much for making room for us to have loads of fun, giving us green bands and letting us use you pools
