The first quarter of 2016 has absolutely flown by, and with all of the activities slated for the next few months, quarter two will likely pass just as quickly!
In the coming weeks, LTB will have its inaugural Sportfest team go head-to-head with some of Tampa Bay's top companies. We are happy to have cheerleaders join in. See registration info below. The Tampa Bay Rays will be hosting LTB alumni on April 26th as the Rays face the Orioles. RSVP for your tickets quick! Mark your calendars now for the class of 2016's graduation ceremony and LTB annual meeting on June 16th. More details to come.
As the program year comes to an end, we are ramping up recruitment efforts for the next class of participants, next gracious sponsors, and committee leaders. If you have nominations or would like to take on a leadership role, please contact Alice.
This is my last letter as chair, but I happily pass the keyboard and gavel on to the expert hands of Stu Williams, who will lead this fine organization through its 29th year. A huge thank you to all who have made this an exceptional year.
Until next time,
Sarah

What Does LTB Mean to You?
Brian Auld (LTB'07) shares how he has been impacted by his experience with Leadership Tampa Bay.
"LTB does a fantastic job introducing participants to all of the unique things Tampa Bay has to offer - from businesses to community to the arts and beyond. However, for me at least, the best thing about it are the relationships that get built along the way. I graduated over 9 years ago and to this day many of my best friends are from that class."
