The 2015 Blake Real Estate Paddle for Kids event is Saturday, May 2.

Coming off one of the biggest months of special events in Safety Harbor’s history, including the hugely successful Safety Harbor Songfest last weekend, it’s only natural there would be a little bit of a let-up in large-scale activities in the ensuing months.

And there is a little let-up. Very little.

While its true that April and May, combined, have the same number of special events as the month of March had, there are still plenty of fun (and fundraising) events happening in the Harbor this spring.

In order to help plan your upcoming entertainment schedule, Safety Harbor Connect came up with this handy cheat sheet of special events for Spring 2015. If you know of any events we might have missed, send an email to support@safetyharborconnect.com and we will make sure it gets added to our calendar!

Note: Parking for downtown Safety Harbor events is available in the public lot on 8th Avenue South and on side streets, where permitted. Parking behind the Harbor Pointe Shoppes complex at the west end of Main Street is now restricted to plaza patrons only. Transportation is available via the Safety Harbor Jolley Trolley.
