  1. The Fancy Women Bike Ride event I shared yesterday was accidentally reported to be happening in Dunedin, Florida, when it's actually happening in Australia! Those who plan to attend can still go to the event in Tampa on Sunday, Sept. 17. The hour-long bike ride begins at Perry Harvey Sr. Park at 10 a.m. (Creative Loafing Tampa)
  2. The Friends of the Library are hosting a pop-up book sale between 9:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Sept. 22 and Sept. 23. Stop by Community Meeting Room B to shop for items priced at 50 cents or less. Make sure to bring cash or a checkbook, as they don't take credit cards. (Dunedin Public Library)
  3. Dunedin Patch is compiling a list of the area's best Halloween yard displays! If you and your family like to decorate your home for spooky season, fill out the form at the link and submit it to the Patch for consideration.
