🎷 SENSATIONAL SUNDAY: South St. Pete, Are You Ready to JAZZ?! 🎶
Good music. Great people. Stron

We’re counting down to OCGC’s Jazz in the Park—an afternoon of food, music, entertainment, games, prizes, family fun, and COMMUNITY! 🎺🥁🌱

📅 Sunday, October 18, 2026
⏰ 2:00–5:00 PM
📍 Child’s Park Lake Park
43rd Street S. & 10th Avenue S., St. Petersburg

But this is about more than having a good time. Jazz in the Park is our opportunity to celebrate the founding families and individuals who believed in the vision of a community-owned grocery store—and invite the next generation of member-owners to help us grow it.

More than 200 families and individuals have already said YES to community ownership.

Now we’re headed toward our next BIG milestone:
🌱 300 MEMBER-OWNERS!

So bring your family. Bring your neighbors. Bring somebody who keeps saying, “I’ve been meaning to join OCGC…” 👀😂

Come chill with us, enjoy the sounds of jazz, support local, make some memories—and learn how YOU can become part-owner of the grocery store we’re building together.
🎷 GOOD MUSIC.
🥬 GOOD FOOD.
💚 GOOD PEOPLE.
🌱 COMMUNITY OWNERSHIP.

This is more than an event. It’s a celebration of how far we’ve come—and where we’re going TOGETHER.

✨ Shop Local. Eat Healthy. Build Wealth. Grow Together.

⛈️ Oct 8-11 Live Music & Events in Gulfport, FL ☔️

Support local — grab a b**r, get something to eat, and shake off a little cabin fever. It’s been a super soggy week leading into an even soggier weekend.

Be sure to check with each venue before venturing out in the rain.

🛟 🌊 If you come across a flooded street, take your time. No wake. Zooming through floodwater sends it straight into yards, homes, and businesses.

Stay safe out there, friends.
