They also sometimes bring food and adult beverages and everyone seems to have a great time.

So a group of people that go to this pool almost on a daily basis when the weather is appropriate have a good time and enjoy music should change everything because one person who's never been there before doesn't like it?

There may be a rule about this. That doesn't seem to have been determined. And although I am in favor of enforcing rules and changing them when a majority wants to, I am also in favor of common sense.

While I sympathize with the OP, I don't know I believe that she should have the right to ruin everyone else's good time. Was the music really all that offensive that she had to make a big deal about it? I think that most of us would have simply laid there and relaxed.
Since it has been our family's pleasure to meet you in person, this post is another on the list of reasons why we like you. Your kindness and your common sense as well as your sharing of music to others is part of who you are.
