It’s that time again! The Orlando International Fringe Festival is a huge annual initiative for the Central Florida community. Certainly a big stimulator for the Arts. And we’re happy to help get the word out about this year’s Festival, starting tomorrow May 15.

For info and all things Fringe visit OrlandoFringe.org. Enjoy!

This coming Friday, April 26 through Sunday, April 28, hundreds of competitors hungry for prizes and bragging rights will gather at the American Pie Council®(APC) /Crisco® National Pie Championships held at the Caribe Royal All-Suite Hotel and Convention Center in Orlando.

In conjunction with the pie championships, the APC is proud to present its 12th Annual APC Great American Pie Festival sponsored by Crisco® on Saturday and Sunday, April 27-28, in nearby Celebration, Fla.

Complete details on both can be found on the Pie Council’s website at PieCouncil.org. Oh, and here you go (you’re welcome):

This is a great event! I actually used to sponsor it as part of my job in a previous life, and loved every minute of it! Whether you’re a homeowner or a renter, there’s something for everyone at this show (the sister Fall show is just as good). You should definitely check-it-out if you’ve never been.

First of all, how much do you love the name of this event?! So fun!

Looking for something interesting to do next weekend? Here you go! You can purchase tickets to this event by clicking here, or on the image above. Neither are affiliate links and we do not make any money if you buy as a result of seeing this post. We are merely sharing this fun event with our Central Florida fans.

The one thing I’m wondering about, is the ad mentions 21+ to attend. So, is that four in dog years?! ☺ Woof….

Looks like a fun local Easter event! Thanks to Pulse friend Stacey Noll for sharing with us via Twitter.

We’re so excited about this news we can barely contain ourselves. (DOH!)

The Container Store Opens at Millenia Mall

If you’ve never experienced The Container Store and you’re someone who likes to keep things somewhat organized (we’re not talking to you OCD folks!) then you’re going to love this.

The concept of this store is fairly obvious. It’s basically the mecca of all things that can help you gain organization in your life. And it’s amazing! Central Florida is getting our very own over by Millenia Mall coming later this Spring (and the store is conveniently located by the Krispy Kreme — what, what!)

Location deets:

The Container Store
4800 Millenia Blvd.
Orlando, FL 32839

Excited as we are now?! Also, if you’re looking for a job is appears The Container Store in Orlando is hiring as well.

We’re all about sharing relevant Central Florida news and information with our readers, so when this recently came our way–and given the often current struggles with our economy–we knew we had to post.

Looking For Employment?

KINGS Bowl, the Boston-based, dining, bowling and entertainment venue that pioneered the “boutique bowling” revolution in 2003, is scheduled to open its first Florida location in April 2013 in the “I-Drive Live” project on Orlando’s world-famous corridor, International Drive. Information can be found below. Applications can also be downloaded in advance at KINGS’ Facebook page and information found on Twitter/Kings_Orlando.

Thanks to our friend Jennifer Bisbee for sharing this information with us. If you’re a job seeker and end-up getting hired as a result of this posting we’d love to hear about (no affiliate benefits here for us).

And I’m sure once this place opens later in the Spring we’ll be sure to check-it-out and give you all the 411.

Five years ago today we published our very first post here on PulseofCentralFlorida.com. Can you even get over it? Now that is a Valentine worth celebrating!

We have so enjoyed providing content and information to the Central Florida community for half a decade (woah…) and love the audience we’ve built over that time. Looking forward to many more years to come and appreciate all of YOUR support!

Thank you.
Gracias.
Merci.
