The United States is just three weeks away from its big electoral event, which is considered one of the most divisive election days in American history.
President Donald Trump held a packed rally on Sunday after Trump’s COVID-19 diagnosis. This rally was held with no social distancing and lots of excited, maskless supporters. Polls show that Trump is struggling because of his handling the COVID-19 situation.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was heavily criticized, especially on social media where he was criticized for acting irresponsibly by high-fiving people and not taking the right precautions at the rally.
Trump’s been announcing that he will be present at future rallies as well, and that he “feels powerful” by scheduling full physical campaign events. His Democratic opponent, Joe Biden, is ahead by an average of 10.4 points in polling as of Friday.
Pink Dragon Ladies represent best of breast cancer awareness month
Breast cancer is considered one of the most common invasive cancer in women’s lives. There are over 3.5 million breast cancer survivors in the U.S, due to science and medical improvements.
October is the official month of breast cancer awareness.
This month is absolutely vital to lots of women because of their strength when it comes to battling this disease.
Breast cancer awareness has inspired some in Tampa Bay to form an organization known as The Pink Dragon Ladies. Several women have created friendships and bonds because of this group, especially due to having one thing in common that makes them fully understand each other by sharing their experiences.
If you are a cancer survivor interested in joining the group, you can visit its website at Pink Dragon Ladies or message them on Facebook.
Armature Works goes to the movies
Tampa Heights welcomes its new drive-in Armature Works, an outdoor theater at the popular drinking and eating spot along the Hillsborough River. It opens on Thursday.
The new movie drive-in is called Rooftop Cinema Club. The Armature Works website says, “We are so excited to join forces with Rooftop Cinema Club to bring a contact-free, drive-in movie experience to The Heights District.”
This new way to watch movies is a safer way of enjoying a film with your closest people but also with the comfort of being in your own space with the right amount of health safety methods, organizers say.
The drive-in theater will show two movies every night, with an schedule that starts at 7:00 p.m., with the second movie at 10:00 p.m., with a cost of $20 per car and first-come first-served parking. There is an online option to order from Armature Works for food and drinks.
They are also planning an entire week’s schedule of Halloween movies just so people can still feel the spirit from the safety of being in their own car.
