Community, connection and stock tanks

COMMUNITY - CONNECTION - STOCK TANKS
Whether you are already a part of the growing stock tank pool community across the continental United States, or are just learning that the stock tank pool is a fun, affordable way to create your own backyard oasis to enjoy year round, either is great and welcomed!
Creating and conceiving COYOTE POOLS, LLC has been almost three years in the works, from DIY-ing it here at home in Lubbock, TX, to survive the West Texas heat, to receiving consistent downloads, visions and ideas of how to create and build a fun, creative and thriving stock tank pool company in West Texas, where we are land locked, sun-drenched and wind blasted through out the year.
In the research and development phase of creating COYOTE POOLS, LLC, I have joined the Stock Tank Pool Lovers (80.4k members) and Stock Tank Pool Life (23.3k members) Facebook groups. In being a member in both of these groups, I have connected with several people across the country that have inspired, educated and motivated me to move forward with the vision of COYOTE POOLS to serve West Texas and the surrounding regions.
That being said, I am all about community and connection. Connection to source, nature and others. I'm a Relationship/Sex therapist in Texas. The idea for COYOTE POOLS, LLC was actually fueled by my work with sitting with clients daily. We are just now experiencing the after-effects of covid and the quarantine.
We are in a state of re-building collectively. I continue to hear that people feel disconnected... from their spouses/partners, from their kids, from their friends and social groups. Throw "dating" and "making new friends as an adult" into the mix and we still have a lot of work to do.
I came across Chassey Bayer Kallman's photography in one of the Facebook stock tanks groups and it was so awesome, I decided to message her to see if she wanted to be featured here on this blog. So, here we are... Meet Chassey! She owns Chassey Bayer Photography in Wisconsin. My vision for COYOTE POOLS' first blog was captured in her amazing photography with this group of women. What beauty, fun and creativity she captured in these shots! I hope this also inspires other lifestyle photographers out there to get creative with the stock tank pools & accessories for your photo shoots. Follow Chassey here on Instagram and check out our COYOTE POOL pool packages and event rentals page for more details!
If we are going to make connection, we have to create connection. I know how hard that can be as well. I relocated from Austin, TX and Denver, CO back home here to Lubbock, TX and not only was I healing from losing my father to covid, but all my friends I grew up with all have kids now and life is just different. I didn't know where to start, but I just started. You gotta put yourself out there, if you want anything to happen. "You're either the bug or the windshield". Connection requires like mindedness, effort, initiation and follow-through.
If we are going to re-build ourselves and our communities, we have to come together, support and uplift each other.
I'm excited to build this lifestyle stock tank pool community starting in West Texas COYOTE POOLS and to connect with other stock tank enthusiasts across the country!
