From the Bench

Hello, November! This is our favorite time of year. Markets, trots, festivals, and picnics as far as the eye can see. Sometimes though, we can’t anticipate the events that will connect us. It’s through this lens that we look back at St. Petersburg’s Connection to Two of the 20th Century’s Greatest Disasters.

As we get closer to holiday shopping we emplore you to shop local! This year has been particularly tough for small businesses so it is up to us to “Keep St. Pete Local”. Fortunately, we have ideas for everyone on your list!

With Thanksgiving just round the corner, we have so much to be grateful for— especially you, our readers, advertisers, and contributors. It’s a great honor and privilege to share these stories with you each month. Thank you all for making GBM part of your life. It’s important

to us that as a community magazine, we’re free for all to enjoy, but as our printing and mailing costs continue to rise, that mission is becoming increasingly difficult. So if you enjoy

our content, and would like to support independent media, please consider making a donation. Every dollar helps. To donate, visit: greenbenchmonthly.com/support

Finally, as Larry J. Sabato once said, “Elections are determined by those who show up”. VOTE, St. Pete!
