Taking Time for Tea
A group of young ladies from the Family Learning Center day care in
Ruskin took time out for tea on Aug. 27 at the Porch Tea Room on Shell

The Changing Face of South Hillsborough:
The rumors are flying about several big box retailers moving into
south county. The facts, however, are few. Yet one in every ten new
jobs created in the entire nation came from the Tampa-St.

and what can south county shoppers expect from the future?
The three-part series is available on
the web:
Part 1 - Welcome
to SouthShore
Part 2 - Meet
the Neighbors
Part 3
- It's a Bird! It's a Plane! It's a Home Depot!
