It’s 92 degrees in October?! But the heat is just about to take its seasonal break in the next couple of weeks! There’s still lots to do in the neighborhood inside & out this weekend! Take the opportunity to support our local businesses and events!
THE HEIGHTS RESTAURANT GUIDE
This is the inaugural release of a project I have been working throughout the summer. I wanted to create a directory of local restaurants rather than any type of “rating”. In my opinion the Heights has all of the best eateries in town, so this was meant to be a guide for neighbors to quickly find local eateries that appeal to our tastes and lifestyle! This list is not warranted to include all offerings in and around the Heights Community. Please comment or contact us with additions and updates!

THE STRAZ IS BACK BLOCK PARTY
The Straz Performing Arts Center will be featuring performances in two outdoor venues around the plaza on the Riverwalk this Saturday from 4-7pm. Local performers, food trucks and libations will be available. All performances are free to the public.
ROCK THE DOCK FOR HOSPICE
Charters Health Foundation is putting on a classic rock n roll show at Julian B Lane Park Saturday from 6-10pm. All proceeds go toward supporting their pediatric services. You can get tickets at the door, or preferably by visiting https://lifepathhospice.chaptershealth.org/RockTheDockRegistration. Come out and rock out for a great charity!

COMEDY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
There’s also plenty of opportunities to get a few laughs in and around the hood this weekend! Here’s some related events:
Aries Spears headlines – various showings – this weekend @tampaimprov
JP Sears headlines this weekend. If one was looking for a comedy act to warm up a rally from one of the former presidents, this might be your guy. Reluctantly… all weekend @sidesplitterscomedy
