Happy Birthday, Tampa!





The City of Tampa officially turned 137 years old on Monday, celebrating when it was first incorporated as a city on July 15, 1887. 

We here at Tampa News Force would like to say Happy Birthday, Tampa. You are our favorite city in the Tampa Bay Area with a population over 300,000.

Anybody who didn’t receive a piece of cake on Monday, just stop in at the office of any government agency, tell them you didn’t get yours and they will give you one.
