Hellooooooooooooooooooooooo Tampa Bay Parrot Heads! What time is it?????

 

It’s time for Fins Up and “High Buffett Week” for the concert and pre-parties. Here’s the instructions and schedule for “I Don’t Know” tailgate……

 

If you are bringing tents, tables, grills or canopies, please make sure that your name & phone number are clearly marked on them to identify you. Although we have a team taking care of tear-down Saturday night, please tear down your tents, etc. and place them in your vehicle or safe place while you are in the concert. You are responsible for your items.

 

Entrance to Fairgrounds

You MUST  have either a ticket or a volunteer badge and be on the Tailgate list (list is closed) to enter into the State Fairgrounds through the Orient Road entrance. Volunteer badges will be available at the 5/31/17 meeting after 7:30pm  If you can’t make the meeting, bring your Tampa Bay Parrot Head badge to flash at the Orient Road gate.  You can pick up your volunteer badge inside (see Joyce). Your name is on the list, so it should be no problem getting in through the gate.
