WHO? The Tampa Bay Parrot Heads in Paradise Club is a diversified group - well,
a little more than a "group" with over 1,000 members who are drawn to the
tropical music & laid back lifestyle suggested by Jimmy’s music. Although we are
not a "fan" club, we are certainly all fans of his music - it is our common
bond. Our age range spans six decades & our roster includes everyone from aerobic
instructors to zoologists, students to teachers, the guy who flips the cheeseburgers to
the lady who owns the burger stand, and all in between.
WHAT? Well the rumors are true. We have refined and redefined the word party. We
have fun whether it’s at our meetings, community projects or informal get-togethers.
Most importantly, we pride ourselves on making a difference in our world. We were voted
"Volunteer Club of the Year" by Lowry Park Zoo & "Community Service
Organization of the Year" by Keep Hillsborough County Beautiful. We perform beach
clean-ups, volunteer at zoo and other functions and sponsor an Environmental Scholarship
at the University of South Florida. We support: Save The Manatee Club, American Red Cross
Hurricane Disaster Relief, Tampa Baywatch, Pinellas Seabird Rehab, Tampa Alzheimer’s
Assoc., Adopt-A-Shoreline, Mayor’s Beautification Program, Lowry Park Zoo & more!
WHERE? Our next meeting is at Kahuna's Bar &
Grill, located just across Tampa's Gandy Bridge
in St. Petersburg.

WHEN? The "ODD" (being the odd birds that we are), 1st, 3rd
and 5th (when it occurs) Wednesdays of each month from 5:00 p.m. -
10:00 p.m. About 300 members show up at
the "meetings" (if you can call them that) for news about club activities,
raffles, dancing to Bubba’s music, laughter, hugs, Teeeeeam Drinks and
Kahuna's great tropical atmosphere.
WHY? If any of the following unruffles your feathers: a chance to get involved
with cool community projects and have a blast doing it, making new "Friends for
Life," no dress code, great trips like the National Parrot Head Convention in Key
West or the upcoming Mexico cruise, a chance to attend the wonderful Manatee Ball. Hey,
you’re a Parrot Head! Until we meet again . . . FINNNNNNNNS UP!!!
