When November finally trots around, Clearwater running enthusiasts know that the Times Turkey Trot will soon be getting underway. This is the largest running event in the Tampa Bay, drawing nearly 16,000 participants. This road race is for competitive runners, recreational runners and walkers of all ages. When you pay your entry fee, you'll get a t-shirt. Trophies are awarded to the top finishers and all the proceeds go to help local charities. Additionally, non-perishable food items are collected the day of the race and are donated to a local food pantry.

Many people yearn for the good old days when things were simpler. Instead of yearning for them, you can actually travel back to them when you visit Heritage Village. In the wake of fast-moving progress, there were several buildings in Pinellas County slated for demolition. Luckily, these places were saved and moved to this location which features two dozen structures that include a store, a church, a school, an outhouse and several private residences from yesteryear that are still very much a part of today.

Your rough week was no laughing matter. But you can change all that by enjoying a zany evening filled with chuckles and belly laughs when you make your reservation at Clearwater's Coconuts Comedy Club. The nightlife comedy venue has been open since 1986 and has been providing an impressive roster of the best stand-up comedians from all over the country. Also, Coconuts welcomes several up-and-coming talents who are dead serious about making you laugh.
