Therapeutics Timeout

Paralympic Sport Tampa Bay (PSTB) has been ROCKING at the National Junior Disability Championships this week. 6 of our team members are

competing out of 174 athletes throughout 28 states in New Jersey,

and have already set MULTIPLE National Records!!! WAY TO GO!!!!

The “Ryan Davis Back To School Bash” held last Friday at Winston Recreation Center was a huge success. Ryan who now plays professional football for the Jacksonville Jaguar’s wanted to give

back to the community that he grew up in. He provided children of the area with music, food, games and backpacks for 500 children. Thanks again to the Win-ston staff that assisted with the event

that drew about 600 people.

Kudos Corner

To Kevin Clethen— “Every day that you come to work your enthusiasm is as contagious as if it’s your first day on the job. Last Friday we were challenged with short staff, lots of rain and a Canine Unit demo by the HCSO. You really went above the call of duty in all aspects, from ensuring that staff were supervising groups, communicating with parents as they came inside and also made sure staff was ensuring parents were signing kids out , transported kids to the Ruskin Cultural Center (4 trips) and so much more. Your actions did not go unnoticed. We were successful despite our challenges thanks to your invaluable contribu-tions and teamwork. It’s not enough to say thank you, but thank you Kevin. You demonstrate everyday what our mission is all about.” - Jackie Brown

With 50 cent of every dollar spent on July 29th being donated to the Hillsborough PR&C Department, make sure to tell all your family and friends to show up at the grand opening Wednesday night! Hope to see you all there!!
