On October 4, United Way of North Central Florida hosted our third United Downtown™, Paint Downtown Orange & Blue. Guests mingled with Albert and Alberta Gator, and Florida Players Network former Gator greats, tested their fitness strength climbing Gainesville Rock Gym's rock wall, hung out with Cinderella, Spider Man and Snow White, participated in local art provided by Art Walk and Corks & Colors, witnessed a hair-raising flash mob performed by zombies from Hippodrome's "Zombie Town: A Documentary Play," and tasted some amazing local food. We would like to give a special thank you to our sponsors (check out our sponsors page!), vendors and everyone who came out! Without you all, it would not have been the successful United Downtown™ event that it was. We are looking forward to our last United Downtown™ on Nov. 22, Gators Ride, Rock & Roll! See you soon!
