As part of our continued partnership with Clothes to Kids, Marine Mat recently sponsored their fundraising event. Clothes to Kids is an exceptional nonprofit organization dedicated to providing new and quality used clothing, free of charge, to low-income or crisis-affected school-age children. This partnership is especially meaningful to our companies as Kimberly Pickren, the wife of Marine Mat owner, Greg Pickren, has volunteered regularly for Clothes to Kids for more than 8 years. She explains why the organization is important to her: Every child deserves the opportunity to feel confident and comfortable at school. By providing kids with the clothing they need and a friendly shopping environment, students can focus on their academics and enjoy school.

Teens in the Lighthouse for the Blind & Low Vision's Transition Program went kayaking with WayneAdventures and they had quite the adventure! Sue Glaser, transition coordinator, shared about the experience, "From manatees sniffing boats and swimming in between us, to practicing water rescues and paddling hard against the strong winds, students worked on a lot of skills and had a great time. We were grateful to enjoy a delicious lunch of wraps, fruit, and cookies afterwards thanks to HydroTurf! We appreciate all the support from the amazing Tampa Bay Community!!"
