All residents of Tampa Heights are welcome to this unique on-going tradition of Tampa Heights.  Children are residents too and are most certainly welcome but please keep an eye on them at guests homes.

The host provides paper goods, sodas, ice, a covered dish and of course the porch. Guests bring a covered dish (with any serving utensils) and own alcoholic beverages.

How to Contact City Government

The City of Tampa’s Neighborhood and Community Relations Office is available to help you navigate your way through city government.  With over 34 departments and nearly 5,000 employees, the task of determining which department to call first is sometimes overwhelming for residents. Our office is available to help connect you to the appropriate city department; provide contact information; or input your question, concern or suggestion directly into Tampa’s on-line Customer Service Center.  We can be reached at (813) 274-7835, and I encourage you to call.  Please be sure to also visit our website www.tampagov.net/neighborhoods to learn more about your neighborhood.

Goodsearch.com
What if Tampa Heights Civic Association earned a penny every time you searched the Internet? Well, now we can!

GoodSearch.com is a new search engine that donates half its revenue, about a penny per search, to the charities its users designate. You use it just as you would any search engine, and it's powered by Yahoo!, so you get great results.

Just go to www.goodsearch.com and be sure to enter Tampa Heights Civic Association as the charity you want to support. Just 500 of us searching four times a day will raise about $7300 in a year without anyone spending a dime! And, be sure to spread the word!
