TAMPA, Fla. — The City of Tampa is offering free activities at seven of the City of Tampa's Parks and Rec Centers during this year's "Jingle Jam."
It is part of the city's ongoing commitment to provide our residents with exciting and affordable programming while school's out.
The centers will have themed camp activities for all ages.
