On Tuesday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers dedicated Bevis Elementary School as the 24th Buccaneers Academy. The event included a ribbon cutting ceremony for the school’s new Fitness Zone, a covered court designed for children to enjoy their favorite outdoor activities while minimizing the risks of heat exhaustion and sun overexposure.
“Every time we install one of our shade covers at our Buccaneer Academies we hear from the schools that it’s a living visual dedication that shows the children that we’re committed for the long term and it shows them that people really care about them,” Glazer Family Foundation President Darcie Glazer Kassewitz said.
