PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION FOR IMPORTANT INFO. Join us for an evening of music, dancing, and a plethora of food options. https://krateatthegrove.com/

The music starts at 7pm, so we'll meet at 6pm so we can get parking, a seating area, and grab food before the music. Please bring your own lawn chair, as seating is limited. I'll post where we are sitting once I arrive. Feel free to bring friends and dogs.

Caribbean Night at KRATE at the Grove is a vibrant monthly event celebrating Caribbean culture through live music, dance, and cuisine. The event features performances by local Caribbean bands and DJs, creating an energetic atmosphere for attendees.

As usual, I'm scheduling our next Read 'n' Watch way ahead of time, so people have time to both read and watch this one. This is more than a book club discussion. These will be focused on books that have also been made into movies or TV shows, so we can discuss the differences, which we prefer, how they each handled the material, etc.

For our next one, we'll discuss Dark Matter by Blake Crouch. The 2024 TV show can be found on Prime and Apple TV.

Dark Matter explores the consequences of choices and the lives we might have lived. The story follows Jason Dessen, a college physics professor who wakes up in an alternate reality where his life is unrecognizable. His wife is different, his son doesn't exist, and he's no longer a professor but a celebrated genius. Jason, a devoted family man, must navigate this disorienting world while trying to get back to his own family.

We'll have lunch at Doodle Noodle in Westchase while we chat. Let's have some intellectual fun!

As usual, RSVPs close the day before the event. Please make any changes before then. No-shows will be removed from the group. (This includes people who drop after RSVPs close.)

We're trying the volunteer event again, after having to cancel last Oct due to hurricanes. We'll be doing warehouse sorting and packing of food items for Feeding Tampa Bay.

*Please only sign up if you can truly commit to being there.*

See below for details and requirements.
What to Expect: Volunteers in our warehouse help inspect perishable and/or non-perishable foods for their expiration date and quality, then package those good foods into bags/boxes that will be distributed to our neighbors soon thereafter. Volunteers of all ages are welcome to this activity, however it is best suited for volunteers ages 5+ years old.
Additional Reminders:
• ALL volunteers MUST wear closed-toe shoes (i.e., sneakers) for warehouse safety. Volunteers wearing open-toe shoes will not be allowed to volunteer. Appropriate attire includes shirts with sleeves (no tank-tops), and jeans or shorts of appropriate length.
• Volunteers will be asked to fill out a Liability Waiver onsite at the shift.
• Parking will take place on the west side of our building, there will be clear signage for the parking, volunteers will enter through the main lobby and be guided to the Volunteer Lounge for check-in and orientation.
• Please arrive on time as orientation will take place no later than 10 minutes after the shift's designated start time.

It's not mandatory, but for those who are interested, after volunteering, we'll grab lunch at Manila Eats, a Filipino restaurant, 1601 S 22nd St, Tampa, FL 33605.

As usual, RSVPs close the day before the event, so please make any changes before then. No-shows will be removed from the group. This includes people who drop after RSVPs close. See you then!
