VIP
Convention Card
Local business discount card will offer deals during
PTA National Convention
- TAMPA - In an attempt to help local businesses during the PTA National Convention, the Tampa Bay
Host Committee will hand out discount cards offering deals at more than 100 Tampa Bay area restaurants, theme parks, golf
courses and museums.
About 30,000 of the PTA VIP Convention Cards will go to conventioneers
at airports and hotels or will show up in goodie bags given to delegates and the media. The
deals - some discounts, some buy-this-get-that offers - will be good Aug. 17-Sept. 3, basically from 10 days before the convention
through a few days after it. The idea is to drive as many customers as possible to local businesses. I don't care who they are, I want them to come here and spend money," host committee president Ken Jones said
this week. The card's offers fall into six categories: - Arts
and culture, which includes offers from the Museum of Science and Industry in Tampa, Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater and the
Dalí Museum and the Museum of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg.
- Casual dining, with discounts,
free appetizers and free glasses of wine offered by restaurants mostly in or near the downtowns of Tampa and St. Petersburg.
- Dining - more free appetizers, free desserts and $2 martinis from Tampa Bay area restaurants serving Italian, Brazilian,
Latin fusion, seafood, Chinese, Japanese and ThaiMex.
- Things to do, with discounts to, among
others, Adventure Island, Busch Gardens, the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, the Lowry Park Zoo, Legoland, the Florida Aquarium
and the aquarium at St. Petersburg's Pier.
- Golf, with discounts at courses from Tarpon Springs
to Lutz to Brandon.
- Outdoor activities and ecotourism, with deals on charter boat tours, ferry
rides to Caledesi Island, tours of Shell Key, deep-sea fishing excursions and rentals of canoes, kayaks and paddleboards.
