1) General Interest

WEDU Needs Us on Monday Night!  11/30, 6:30-10:30pm

I'm STILL having trouble getting a full crew for tonight.  Several regulars are unable to make it this time.  If you can join in for tonight, please call me at 727-580-6016 and let me know.  Thanks to any who will answer my last minute call for help.

WEDU is very easy to find. Their address is:
1300 North Boulevard
Tampa, FL 33607-5699

The easiest way to get there is to head East on Kennedy
Turn left (North) on North Boulevard
WEDU is several blocks down on your left.
Parking is free, and it’s very secure.
