Support Local Businesses during “We Survived Irma” Weekend, Sept. 23 & 24
We are back in business! Support our local businesses during “We Survived Irma” Weekend, Sept. 23-24. Businesses are offering specials and discounts, and the City is allowing all businesses to have outdoor displays of merchandise and signage. Some businesses lost power for up to 6 days, and others pitched in to support our residents and each other during the storm and its aftermath. So this weekend, show support by shopping and dining in Tarpon Springs, and participate in Saturday’s Wine Walk.
