A message from WDTB

What’s Doing? Tampa Bay has been made aware of the dispute between boat captains and Early Autism Interventions, the event host for the Reeling For Autism event.
What’s Doing? Tampa Bay was NOT the host of this event. This website was simply posting about the event as it was conveyed to us by Early Autism Interventions. This site is not the right place for contractors and event hosts to settle a dispute.
However, given the concerns, What’s Doing? Tampa Bay will no longer be posting events sponsored by Early Autism Interventions.

We sincerely hope that the boat captains and Early Autism Interventions will be able to resolve their issue.
