🤓 We wanna know: what do YOU wanna know?
What’s up in Parramore
On Friday, we introduced you to Page 15, a local non-profit in Parramore that works with young aspiring writers of all skill levels. It was the first video in our month-long series spotlight on the Parramore neighborhood.
We’ll be featuring more local businesses, organizations and people to know in Parramore in the coming weeks, so we want to hear from you: what do you want to know about Parramore? What do you want to know about its history, its culture, or its future? Is it about how fast its housing costs are going up? Or how the arrival of UCF downtown and Creative Village will impact the neighborhood? (We’ve touched on that before — check out our findings here.)
Send us your Qs and we’ll pick three of our favorites to put up for a vote. 👍
Then stay tuned: We’ll be back next week with a feature on a prominent Parramore chef — who’s fed legends such as Elvis Prestley, Mohammed Ali, and Coretta Scott King.
It's trivia time
We’re playing a little Orlando trivia with our members. One member who correctly answers this week’s question about Orlando’s claim to fame as the _______ capital of America by noon on Thursday will win a $25 gift certificate to Harry Buffalo.
Wanna play? Join us! For $10 a month, our members help make everything you know and love about Pulptown possible. Members get special perks like free and discounted event tickets, a kit of member gear, and we have a little extra fun with them too. 😉
Let’s get together
We’re celebrating our big one-year anniversary with a birthday brainstorm and party at A La Cart on Wednesday, April 17. The first round is on us, but we’re capping seats at 20, so grab your ticket today.
We’re looking forward to hanging with you IRL (and not with a computer screen between us) and hearing from you directly about what you want to see more of in Pulptown, and what you want to better understand about your community.
See you then??
