We like to think every issue is full of interesting stories, but this month’s are some of our favorites. St. Pete native, Amy Walker, shares the legacy of her grandfather, M.B. Welch, who played an intricate role in the city’s development during the 1920s. Her detective work has helped to unearth a treasure trove of St. Pete history.
If you need a sign to start moving and beginning to achieve your fitness goals, this is it. Get your groove on at St. Pete Dance and meet the trainers at The Athleticus.

If you need some ideas for Mother’s Day weekend, we’ve got you covered. To all the moms, and those mothering, we love you— Happy Mother’s Day.
Till next time,

The history of the green benches is layered. For some, it is a reminder of a painful period of racism and segregation. To others, it is a symbol of welcomeness and hospitality. We carry this name to shine a light on our city’s history and in celebration of those who work tirelessly towards a more inclusive St. Pete.
