Suggested donations include cereal\, breakfast bars\, granola and oatmeal. Each household that donates will receive a surprise Rays promotional item. \nAt the conclusion of the drive-thru event\, fans may park and exit their vehicles in a designated section of the parking lot to speak to Rays Ticket Sales Representatives or shop in the Rays Republic Team Store. \nThe Rays are committed to keeping fans and staff safe during the Drive to Opening Day event.

The album features deeply personal topics of humanity\, compassion\, and a reflection of the current political times.\nA lifelong surfer and environmentalist\, his songs speak to the importance of connecting with and protecting the earth. At a time when many are looking for words of inspiration and reassurance\, “Rise” delivers a collection of socially conscious songs filled with messages of love\, possibility\, and inclusion.\nIn 2018 and 2019\, Will joined his good friend Trevor Hall as a member of his touring band and as a frequent supporting act. Together they performed to passionate crowds across North America and Europe. Trevor Hall is featured on “Hoka Hey\,” the album’s opening song.\nIn his live performances\, Will displays a technical mastery of live-looping skills to showcase his background in percussion mixed with layers of acoustic guitar and soulful vocals.\nWill has shared the stage with many top artists including Crosby & Nash\, Grace Potter\, Bruce Hornsby\, Rusted Root\, Michael Franti & Spearhead\, Trevor Hall\, Nahko\, Xavier Rudd\, Donavon Frankenreiter\, Ryan Montbleau\, Railroad Earth and members of Dispatch.

SUMMARY:16th Annual Gulfport Pink Flamingo Home Tour
DESCRIPTION:COVID-19 has made the world topsy turvy. Why should the Pink Flamingo Tour be any different? Although we hope by March 6\, 2021 most pandemic restrictions will have been lifted\, nobody knows for sure. So the committee that organizes Gulfport’s favorite springtime event tweaked it a bit and presents: \nGulfport’s 16th Annual Pink Flamingo Tour … of Gardens \nSaturday\, March 6\, 11 am to 5 pm. \nUnlike traditional Pink Flamingo tours\, this year we’re staying completely outdoors\, which makes distancing so much easier. We are also not limiting the tour to one neighborhood; you’ll have the opportunity to stroll through yards and gardens throughout the city. \nRegistration will take place at the Gulfport Rec Center\, 5730 Shore Blvd. \nFeel free to go at your own pace\, seeing properties in any order. Unfortunately\, we will not be able to provide transportation\, so we ask visitors to bike\, scoot or carpool. The tour skims Gulfport’s waterfront district\, so there will be plenty of time to take a lunch break or shop in our historic downtown. \nMasking and social distancing will be enforced\, and hand sanitizer will be plentiful. \nFor more information email pinkflamingo@visitgulfportflorida.com.

SUMMARY:Happy Hour with the Historian
DESCRIPTION:Florida During World War II Presented by Lt. Col. Robert Kirchubel \n\n\nJoin us Thursday\, February 11th as the Museum of History welcomes Lt. Col. Robert Kirchubel\, USA (Ret.) for an evening of wine\, words\, and wisdom.\n\nKnown for its warm weather\, white sandy beaches and swaying palm trees\, Florida long represented rest and relaxation. At least until 1942. After America’s entry into World War II\, the U.S. government transformed our tropical oasis into the largest military training ground in the United States. Hotels were converted into military barracks\, airports filled with bombers and fighter planes and those beautiful Florida sandy shores were invaded with assault after assault of amphibious military trainees. Lt. Col. Kirchubel’s presentation will explore how the Sunshine State was converted from a resort paradise to a key player in the U.S. home front during World War II.\n\nHappy Hour with the Historian is presented by Green\, Henwood & Hough Wealth Management Group of RBC Wealth Management.\n\n\n\n\nProgram begins at 6:30pm. \nSPMOH Members receive free access! \nThis edition of Happy Hour with the Historian will be streamed live online via Zoom.
