Love and Friendship Walk, Town and Country

Scheduled for Friday, February 10, 2012

Town n Country is celebrating the power of love and friendship as they do in Latin America, recognizing Day of Love and Friendship – Dia de Amor y Amistad – as key to having a better community. Youth are preparing their own messages that include anti-bullying messages and wish lists for what they would like to see in their lifetimes. We will gather at noon on Friday February 10, 2012 at the FICS Multicultural Family Center, 6704 Hanley Road, Tampa FL 33634 and walk to the Town n Country Recreation Center, 6039 Hanley Road, Tampa FL, meeting up with others to take a symbolic lap around the track. The event is free and open to the public, all ages! 

We are pleased to announce that we have confirmed our keynote speaker, Mr. Tony “Red” Morrison, a former New York Yankee who will discuss goal-setting and the importance of focusing on education as key to a better future. There will be light refreshments served. The event is scheduled to end around 4 PM at the Town n Country Recreation Center. This event is co-sponsored by the Hillsborough County Department of Parks, Recreation and Conservation and the Florida Institute for Community Studies (FICS).
