and I am thankful to the men and women donning their lime green , bright yellow , aqua , and orange shirts , because without them our City on the Gulf would be a bit more drab . The mission of VABI is “ to make Venice a beautiful place to live , work and play !” and to do this , Venice Area Beautification succeeds only because of its volunteers and sponsors . So , if you have a green thumb , a love of the outdoors , or a willingness to give back to our community , please consider donating your time or treasure to VABI and to learn more about the organization visit vabi . org .
COMING UP : February 16 we will host our inaugural whiskey tasting at Venice Fine Wine & Spirits . March 3rd will be a favorite event to many ( including me !), the
12th Annual Sporting Clays Event at Sarasota Gun Club , and we will host a Brown Bag Lunch with our new South County judges , Judge Maryann Boehm and Judge Danielle Brewer , who we welcome wholeheartedly ! �
