WOW What a PARTY! Last weekend at the Holiday Inn Harbourside we the Tampa Bay Parrot Heads in Paradise Club celebrated our 16th birthday! YEP! It was sixteen years ago on September 14th, 1994 when this great club began with just 8 members. Today we have over 600 members and are one of the most successful Parrot Heads clubs in Parrot Head history. Many of you were there this past weekend to " Party with a Purpose" and the purpose was YOU the PHabulous members of this PHantastic club. That's right it is you the members that volunteer for hundreds of hours cleaning beaches, or the Zoo, and help conduct fundraisers to support our environmental causes. It's you members that make PHenomenal parties like this one possible. It's you the members that are the "GREATEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD!" It's your passion, dedication and determination that gives our motto: "Let's leave the world a little better than we found it and Have a BLAST doing it!" real meaning. This party was a tribute to each of you! Thank you for your service! Thank you for being a part of the Tampa Bay Parrot Heads in Paradise Club! Thank you for the privilege to preside over this tropical tiki birthday bash. It was a BLAST!
I also want to encourage as many of that can to register for the 19th annual Meeting of the Minds in Key West the first week of November. We are trying to get 100 of Tampa Bay Parrot Heads registered this year for MOTM.
