The last five directors for LEGOLAND® Florida have been announced. The press release is posted at The Brick Blog. As part of the announcement, time is getting close for hiring the nearly 1000 “Model Citizens” that will staff the park.

LEGOLAND Press Release

Here is a press release from Legoland Florida.

POLK COUNTY, FL (Feb. 24, 2010) – The excitement is building since the announcement of LEGOLAND® Florida in January, and now future guests and job seekers can follow the progress of the family theme park at www.LEGOLANDFloridaResort.com. The website includes a press page with photos and video of LEGOLAND® California, a link to all available job opportunities with Merlin Entertainments and a link to LEGOLAND® California Resort.

Due to the strong interest from contractors, a separate email has been set up for those wishing to introduce their company and offer their services to Merlin Entertainments. All those inquiries should be addressed to LLFContractors@LEGOLAND.com.

LEGOLAND Florida opens at the end of 2011 and will be the biggest LEGOLAND Park to ever open offering a unique mix of more than 50 rides, shows and attractions, including spectacular LEGO® models. The Florida development will be Merlin Entertainment’s second LEGOLAND Park in North America and will play an important role in the group’s continued growth in the U.S. Providing a full-day, year round, theme park experience geared towards families with children between the ages of two and 12, LEGOLAND Florida will mirror the successful concept of the four existing LEGOLAND Parks in Denmark, Germany, UK and California. However, as with the other four, it will also have its own unique “twist” reflecting its stunning location and adding a Florida flavor.

A Flight You’ll Want to Take

Fantasy of Flight is a great place to visit for die hard aviation enthusiasts or people with just a casual interest. And now Florida residents can see it for less.

Dads can get in free June 18 — 21 with the purchase of any full-price admission, including adult, senior or youth.

Florida residents can take advantage of $8 off discounts on adult admissions June 22 to July 31. Attraction visitors must present proof of residency. Meanwhile, the attraction is offering from July 1 to Sept. 30 a free admission with the purchase of a full-priced ticket for people who work in the service industry, which includes bars, hotels and restaurants.

I really recommend visiting Fantasy of Flight. The wide variety of exhibits will keep you and your family entertained for hours.
