work hard … play hard

Gasparilla_Pirate_Fest_2003_-_Pirate_Flagship_Invading_Tampa

 

Gasparilla has been a Tampa tradition since 1904 and includes among other festivities, a pirate invasion followed by a parade.  This year was no exception and the invasion and parade took place just steps away from our office on a beautiful Tampa Saturday.

While we pride ourselves on working hard, we also like to play! Dan hosted a few pirates for the festivities and our newest employee, Christy, attended a roof-top party with Patty for her inaugural Gasparilla parade.  As a part of the City of Tampa and the downtown community, D&P did their part to participate in the revelry!
