My former journalism career led me to a stint at @wrtv, my hometown of Indy, before I eventually landed in Tampa. Many friends worked in those halls too. What happened there yesterday is heartbreaking, and the new owners couldn’t have handled it worse.

History in the making!

Go Rays! #RaysUp

If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen… but in pickleball, that just means it’s time to dink (pickleball lingo)! The City of Treasure Island is opening the gates to the hottest new spot in town! Six brand-new, cushioned pickleball courts are about to open at Rosselli Park, and they’re softer, more forgiving, and way more fun than your average court. Think bouncy comfort that saves your knees while you play! This pickleball “isle” went from “hey, what if…” to reality thanks to the teamwork between residents and city staff. Come celebrate! Rosselli Park Pickleball Courts Ribbon-Cutting Saturday, April 18 at 9:30 a.m. Everyone’s welcome, including pickleball pros, beginners, and even tennis players sneaking over to the other side. Attendees will enjoy light refreshments, open play, and a raffle for pickleball paddles so you can sport a new look on the new courts. Bring your paddle, your best game face, and your community spirit. Don’t miss out! This is the biggest thing to hit Treasure Island since Bucky claimed his golden spot in Treasure Island Community Center Park!
