Odessa Rodeo, Oktoberfest, Artist Honored and More on Westchase Patch

A look back at the week that was...

  1. A founding member of the Westchase Artist Society was given a major kudos recently when the Tampa Bay Lightning honored Vanessa Montenegro for her work. Her works will be on display on the walls of the Executive Suite Level of the Forum.
  2. After six years of being on hiatus it looks like the Odessa Rodeo and Festival is returning to the area later this month. The boot-scooting fun will take place at the Tampa Bay Downs.
  3. Speaking of the Tampa Bay Downs, we brought you a story on the area's largest Oktoberfest happening there through Monday. The Upper Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce organized this massive German fest.
  4. Patch is getting into the holiday spirit and we need some yummy recipes. We're asking readers to submit their tried and true recipes. Some will be featured. So submit them now!
  5. We're also looking for the best Halloween decor in the neighborhood. Know a really spooky house? Submit a picture to our gallery.
