At the monthly meeting of Tampa PRIDE a fairly new topic was brought up. The use of “Social Media Influencers.” These people have large groups of friends & followers on social media.

If you or someone you know would like to be apart of this group please send your contact info to TC at 3510E8@gmail.com  There will be a fun met up meeting in the next couple weeks. Thank You

Ray’s Moving to Ybor City?

The whispers around Ybor City and in downtown Tampa are saying the Ray’s will be coming to Ybor City.

What?? We heard this same claim 18 months ago . Ray’s moving to the GaYBOR District in Ybor City.

The window of opportunity were closed after the  $1 Billion baseball complexwas proposed. Since then the St Petersburg leaders cinched the idea and so did the Ray’s Baseball group, in public.

The empty space that was presented to the Ray’s is still available.We did know that the rents went sky high for a 6 month period. Now coming back to affordable rent. But if the Ray’s do plan on looking at Ybor City, what will happen next.

A new proposal brought to the Hillsborough County Board of Commissioners Meeting by Comm Ken Hagan yesterday have a proposal for an Entertainment AND Ray’s Baseball Center. And guess where? That is correct in the GaYBOR District in the southside of Ybor City.

It was just over 6 weeks ago the ownership of the Rays proposed splitting the annual season between Montreal & Tampa Bay area. No more specifics have been sent out. St Pete leaders have said nothing!

We will just have to see how the new whispers will pan out.
