>From the Fins-to-the-Left Store 
Be sure to come to our next meeting, this Wednesday, September 6th and check out all the exciting new apparel and accessories at the Fins to the Left Store.  New items include beach bags, hand bags, men's & women's tank tops, visors and some kiddie shirts, just to name a few.  We also have some Bar Stroll and Memorial Day Party shirts available if you missed out the first go 'round ($7 each), and if you have any suggestions of items we should offer at the store just shoot an e-mail to store manager Charlie Rose at phcharlierose at yahoo.com. 

Beach Clean-up & PARTY -- It's Time to Cleeeeeeeeeeeean the Beaches!!!
MARK THE DATE -- Saturday, September 16th, is The Florida Coastal Cleanup.  Each year on the 3rd Saturday in September, Keep Hillsborough County Beautiful, Inc. (a nonprofit organization) coordinates the Cleanup locally.  This event is part of the International Coastal Cleanup, which is coordinated by the Ocean Conservancy.  This is the largest marine-related Cleanup in the world!  Last year more than 2,400 volunteers collected more than 56,000 pounds of trash along our local beaches and waterways.  This is a "t-shirt event."  There will be sign-up sheets at the meetings.  If you can't make the meetings, please contact David, our Chief Officer of Community Events by e-mail - dolphin96 at verizon.net or phone 727-543-6548 or 727-734-8263 to sign up.  This is a great opportunity for anyone who needs community service hours to acquire those hours and to help leave the world a little better than we found it. 

As always we will meet in the parking lot of Whiskey Joe's (south on Rocky Point Road on the east end of the Courtney Campbell Causeway) at 9:30 a.m. and hit the beaches around 10:00.  Bring gloves and a hat and wear good shoes!  The post party details are in the works but you can be assured the post party will be awesome as usual.

It is now up to the candidates to campaign for votes.  How is a winner chosen??? Well, this is a totally "bribe initiated" election.  Everything that you would consider to be against the rules of a normal election is thrown out the door, and the candidates need to get you to contribute hard earned dollars to their cause.  Each dollar the candidate receives equals one vote.  All monies are donated to charities.  Complete information about the contest and where the monies will be donated can be found at web site below.
