AVA put on one largest and most diverse parade me and my family ever seen! They had several college bands that truly entertained us. The floats were magnificent. For MLK Day Parades it's normally just a group of people walking down the street with signs, but not for St. Pete's parade! Kudos to all involved!
Advantage Village Academy (AVA) is instrumental in providing a safe haven for many underprivileged youth in the Pinellas County area. The kids have an opportunity to enjoy athletic activities as well as educational undertakings. AVA also celebrate Cancer Awareness on an ongoing basis. Their signature annual event is the Pink Bowtie Gala. The gala helps celebrate the lives of those that are battling such a deadly illness. I am excited to be involved with such a great organization!
