February ManaTeach Winner

March 18, 2019

ManaTeach is an authentic campaign to “Tell Your Story” using current media trends.

6th Annual Tidewell Day

Tidewell offers home-based comfort care to everyone, regardless of ability to pay, involving the support of physicians, registered nurses, social workers, certified nursing assistants, chaplains and volunteers.

Bradenton Christian’s Local Government Day on Bradenton Beach

A few weeks ago, we had the pleasure of hosting a class of third graders from Bradenton Christian School who were visiting Bradenton Beach to learn first-hand how local government works. We were thrilled to provide lunch for these adorable future leaders of Manatee County after their exciting day visiting City Hall. They also had some other unique Bradenton Beach experiences like putt-putt at the Fish Hole, sailing on the beach with Commissioner Ralph Cole, a tour of the bakery at our friends the Beach House, and more!
