Realty Executives Gallery Properties (Orlando)
Last week, we featured Thornton Park as our neighborhood spotlight and this week we are doing the same! We gave you the scoop on some must go to places, some background information about the community, and the different types of events Thornton Park likes to host. This week we want to give you more of a visual on what we talked about and outline the upcoming events within the next few months. Think of this as an extension of information; by the end of today’s blog you will be a tell all expert on Thornton Park while also hopefully giving you some future plans! Here is a fun video the Thornton Park District put together to show you what they're all about.
