  • (1888PressRelease) March 24, 2016 - CLEARWATER, FL - Dozens of residents and neighbors filled the lobby of the historic building to hear Ms. Roberts play their favorite songs.

    One resident stated, "It was an absolutely incredible concert, in a beautiful location. I hadn't visited the building since the Bank of Clearwater was here. It was a wonderful end to the United Nations declared 'Day of Happiness'. I was so happy throughout it all."

    The event was co-hosted by The Way to Happiness Foundation of Tampa Bay, an organization based on the book, The Way to Happiness, which was written by L. Ron Hubbard in 1982. The Way to Happiness is a non-political, non-religious moral code aimed at restoring common decency. The Director of the Foundation, Ms. Tanya Cranton, shared the positive results from the use of the book with the guests: "Lowered violence and crime, improved behavior of teens towards family, and increased self-esteem are some of the results we have seen when people apply this information to their lives." Each guest received a copy of the Way to Happiness booklet.

    The next scheduled event at the Information center is the monthly Business Reception on April 13th. The center located at 500 Cleveland Street is open daily from 10am to 10pm.
