Stay wild 🤪

Hi, friends! It’s Brenda, back in your inbox for all the Central Florida Happenings.

It’s been a busy last week for me, from going away parties to birthday parties to driving back and forth from Fort Myers and more (phew!). One of the sights from the last week includes the photo above from one of the many events I attended.

And it was a fun reminder to stay wild! We all get caught up in things happening daily, but we should also remember to make time for fun memories and just say “yes!”

So here’s your chance!

Here’s what’s happening this weekend ⤵️

Did you know the world’s largest frog leg festival happens right here in Florida? 😮

Kind of crazy when you think about it.

🐸 Anyway, THOUSANDS of pounds of frog legs and gator will be served up at the Fellsmere Frog Leg Festival, starting TODAY!

While the food is the main event, there will also be fun carnival rides and live music over the weekend.

(Cirque Italia Team)

I told y’all about the circus last week, but this circus is definitely not for children 😱.

Paranormal Cirque is back and making stops in Central Florida this week, with a one-of-a-kind production featuring “death-defying stunts, creepy creatures and haunting performances.”

Sounds interesting enough to me...

The circus promises to “send shivers down your spine” and transport you to a “dark world.”

If you’re interested, here’s everything to know. Step right up, if you dare.
