Thank you Temple Terrace for putting on this great event.
Local Treasure Marisol Marquez Of Raíces en Tampa
Growing up, before walking into class, I'd scrub my hands with soap and water to try to take off the green-tint, caused by cutting asparagus.

Dems Rule Sarasota
With a double exclamation point, Sarasota Democrats sent a powerful message this week. They rule the city limits of Sarasota. here
Right Wing Pest Control
Democrats played a key role in mobilizing their voters and making sure that Liz Alpert and Shelli Freeland Eddie had legitimate help in winning seats on the City Commission. Now, for the first time in at least a quarter century, every Sarasota city commissioner is a registered Democrat.

Cyclovia comes to Temple Terrace
Sierra will be joining the Cyclovia event in Temple Terrace this Sunday. We
will set up a demonstration barrier bike lane to show how it vastly enhances
bicycle safety. And we'll have several electric vehicles on display, too! 56th
Street will be closed north of Busch Blvd to Whiteway from 9 AM to 2 PM to
create a safe, fun thoroughfare where people can walk, run, bike, skate, scoot,
play and just enjoy the city in a whole new way.
Bring the kids and join us for the first
ever Cyclovia Temple Terrace!
