TAMPA - Coach Joe Gibbs and the Gibbs Racing Team announced last month that the Coach would be speaking April, 28 2010 at the 39th Annual Tampa Bay Leadership Prayer Breakfast at the Tampa Convention Center in downtown Tampa.

Members of CBMC Tampa, the executive committee, were pleased to host Gibbs’s chaplain, Bob Dyer and Public Relations Director, Chris Helein for a planning luncheon at the DeBartolo Development offices on Kennedy, where an agreement was quickly reached to promote the event as Joe Gibbs’s Game Plan for Life Breakfast, coordinating with Gibbs’s book and his new ministry to men.

The event, in its 39-year history, has seen as many as 1,500 and as few as 500 in attendance, according to a former Chairman. And with the announcement of Gibbs’s attendance, this year’s Chairman, Dan Shock, and the committee opted to move the event to the Tampa Convention Center in expectation of a minimum of 1,200.

That number presents a need for at least 120 tables and 120 corporate Table Sponsors. Contact Dan Shock for more information dbs88@hotmail.com.

Thank you for those who have been asking for a Pay Pal button for Table Sponsors. We have added a button for a one-time payment of $315.00 on the sponsorship page.

Sincerely,

Team

Our Chairman, Dan Shock, recently recorded a special video for Brothers who might be able and interested to take on a special responsibility the morning of and after the Breakfast.

If you have not been contacted about this opportunity, you can email Dan for more information. Email dbs88@hotmail.com</a>.

Sincerely,

TAMPA, FL -  The 39th Annual Tampa Bay Leadership Prayer Breakfast, scheduled for May, 2010, announced earlier this month a new Web site and Blog at www.tampabayprayerbreakfast.com.

“Our theme this year is all about preserving the heritage of a breakfast,” said CBMC Committee Chairman Dan Shock. “The new Web site just assures those who already know about us and those who don’t that they can get to a complete set of online information quickly and in a format that is attractive and easy to navigate.”

The project, being developed by Tampa-based CERICDigital (www.cericdigital.com), is a blogger /database-driven platform that makes searching the site a breeze , according to CERIC’s J. Boe Ellis.

“We are excited to be in the middle of the process right now of compiling and categorizing a lot of content,” Ellis said. “And as it comes live to the Web, the site should be reasonably robust but still simple. ”

Ellis said the site should to be completed by mid-November.

The Breakfast is hosted by CBMC (Connecting Businessmen to Christ), a 76-year-old organization formed during the Great Depression in Chicago.
