PSU FOOTBALL PARTIES 
Various Locations in Sarasota

Our chapter will continue to operate under a modified schedule during the 2021 football season. Therefore, the chapter will not be hosting any official football watch parties this season. Many local businesses that have graciously supported us in the past may continue to have informal watch parties. If you would like to support those businesses, head on over to the Sarasota Brewing Company, Gecko’s (Fruitville), or Miller's on Bee Ridge.  The Lighthouse Grill will NOT be hosting a viewing party for the Bowl Game.  Please note, because these watch parties are unofficial, there may not be any board members present, there may not be a designated PSU seating area, and you may need to ask the restaurant to turn on the game.

​The Alumni Association will once again co-host a volunteer activity with the opposing school’s Alumni Association at this year’s bowl. Similar events were organized before the Fiesta Bowl, Citrus Bowl, and the Cotton Bowl, and each year Penn Staters show up to demonstrate their pride with purpose.

This year, we will participate in a beach clean-up in partnership with Keep Pinellas Beautiful. Everyone will meet at Gandy Beach at 9:30 a.m. on Dec. 31. After a short welcome from both Penn State and the University of Arkansas Alumni Associations, supplies will be distributed, and clean-up will begin. The event will conclude by 11:30 a.m.

Gandy Beach is located about a 15-minute drive from downtown Tampa. A reminder email with directions and additional details will be sent the day before the event.

Sign-up today to “Team Up & Clean Up!” Don’t forget to wear your Penn State gear!
