Members of the Tampa Bay Association of Black Journalists and friends:
We'll be meeting next week, at 11 a.m. on Saturday Nov. 8, at a old spot: the Perkins Restaurant at 612 N. Dale Mabry Hwy., just south of I-275, in Tampa, 33609.
It will be an important meeting. We'll be taking about final preparations for our Griot Drum Awards scholarship banquet and awards ceremony, which will feature keynote speaker Mark McEwen, former anchor of CBS This Morning, and host ABC Action News anchor Deiah Riley.
At this stage, we need to sell tickets and make sure the event is full. So please let me know if you plan on coming and stop by the meeting with ideas for selling tickets. Price is $30 for members and $35 for non-members.
We'll also be talking about our Christmas Party, tentatively scheduled for Dec. 11. And brainstroming ideas for the national convention coming to Tampa next year. We need to decide soon what we will do as a local fundraiser,. so bring some ideas.
Feel free to call or email is there are any problems. Otherwise, I look forward to seeing you Nov. 8.
