Tampa Bay Watch is celebrating their 25th anniversary this coming November. The local organization is hosting its annual “Evening for the Bay” gala, themed “Wave of the Future”, on Saturday, November 3rd from 5:00pm – 9:00pm. The event will feature neon lights and futuristic innovations, dinner sponsored by Bonefish Grill, and complimentary refreshments sponsored by St. Pete Distillery, Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant, Great Bay, and Coppertail Brewing. Guests will also enjoy live music, magical performances, and live and silent auctions. In celebration of the organization’s silver anniversary, Tampa Bay Watch encourages guests to dress in hues of silver.
Special thanks are given for this year’s presenting sponsor, ASI Progressive Insurance, core sponsor, Healthcare IQ, in-kind sponsors, and table sponsors including Tampa Bay Rays, Shutts & Bowen, Alden Suites and Sabal Trust Company. This year’s live and silent auctions will include exotic trips to Belize, Caribbean cruises, wine tours through Sonoma, local adventures, and more.
“We are also proud to partner with local businesses for auction items. From gift cards of local restaurants to special experiences, we feel that community involvement is essential for the success of our environment and our economy,” explains Michelle Andersen, Special Events Coordinator, “when we have a healthy environment, it grows our economy. Just look at what red tide has done to tourism and businesses. We can’t stop the natural occurrence of red tide, but we can all do our own part to keep our environment healthy.”
If you would like to support the mission of Tampa Bay Watch through a donation for their
auctions, contact Michelle Andersen at mandersen@tampabaywatch.org. All goods and/or services donated will be tax deductible to you or your business.
