An off-campus reception is held the first Thursday of every month, 4:00-7:00pm, at different restaurants near campus. Upcoming events include an evening at the new Elephant Safari exhibit at the Lowry Park Zoo, a Halloween walk through “Lost” Ybor City, river and ocean kayaking adventures, and special invitations to art openings around the Bay Area.
Members of the JFG also regularly receive free tickets to the Florida Symphony Orchestra and discounted tickets to other cultural events.

Upcoming Events:

Come and enjoy Hops microbrewed beer accompanied by tiny food and great conversation! Spouses and significant others are also welcome. Cost: none. I hope to see many new and returning junior faculty at this first reception! We had a great time at Don José’s and the CAM opening this past weekend – thanks to all who made the effort to attend (especially Interim CAS Dean Kathleen Heide!) and supported the university’s community life through their presence. New photos will be up on the website soon, so check it often.

Sept. 18, Saturday, 9-5
Day trip Kayaking down the Hillsborough River (All levels, but especially appropriate for beginners.)

Led by USF Outdoor Recreation, we will receive basic training in handling a boat and a paddle before heading down the Hillsborough River. This is a fabulous way to see the flora and fauna as well as bond with your colleagues as you brave the skeeters. Followed by beers & gator chili at Skipper’s Smokehouse.
