Bluegreen Orlando Resort, The Fountains, on Pitch for American Idol Concert

June 24, 2011 - PRLog -- Boca Raton, Fla., - June 24, 2011 – Bluegreen Corporation , a leading provider of Colorful Places to Live and Play, today announced its Orlando, Fla., resort, The Fountains, is a prime location for owners to stay while attending the American Idol tour, July 24, at 7 p.m.
While several cities in Florida were in consideration for hosting the American Idol concert, like Idol, there could be only one winner. This year, Orlando’s Amway Center will have the opportunity to present the crowd with this season’s top 11 finalists and hold the concert. Casey Abrams, Haley Reinhart, Jacob Lusk, James Durbin, Lauren Alaina, Naima Adedapo, Paul McDonald, Pia Toscano, Scotty McCreery, Stefano Langone, and Thia Megia will all be performing for the event. This season’s group has been praised as being the most memorable with its diverse and deep talent pool.
The Fountains provides the perfect retreat after a day of Orlando’s festivals, events and attractions. The resort’s two-bedroom villas are richly appointed with all the comforts of home—and then some. Most feature a screened balcony overlooking the property lake, a fully-equipped kitchen, a garden tub, and a surround sound stereo system. The resort’s main pool, Wakoola Springs, is a 75,000-square-foot tropical oasis with two twisting water slides, a zero-entry pool, interactive water fountains, two hot tubs, two bridges, and two fire circles for campfires. A 20,000-square-foot clubhouse, a gift shop, a teen center, and a kid’s activity center with video games, air hockey, and billiard tables are sure to keep owners and their families busy.

“While watching American Idol at home each week is nice, having the opportunity to have the event live in town is a real treat for our Bluegreen owners,” said Kristin Ingram, General Manager of The Fountains. “It should be a great addition to our owners’ vacation experience.”
