Front Yard Friday (Orlando, FL)

The invitation

Headline: "They wave. You wave. Time to actually meet." The promise is a single coordinated evening of front-yard gatherings during Good Neighbor Week, with money attached. The button says I'm In — Send Me $100. It is for Orlando-area residents willing to host during the event week.

The grant

Fixed $100 per host. The event date is Friday, October 2 (inside the Sept. 28 to Oct. 4, 2026 week). Asked of hosts: hold a front yard, porch, or sidewalk gathering so neighbors can actually meet. Post-event requirements are not stated on the fetched page.

What the landing page does well

• The headline names the exact micro-moment everyone recognizes (the wave) and promises to finish it.
• Button copy is a first-person commitment, not an action label: "I'm In — Send Me $100".
• One shared date does the hard part for hosts; nobody has to pick a night or worry about being the only one.
• A four-photo carousel (neighbors talking, yard signage, downtown streets, the Orlando skyline) places the program in a real city, not stock suburbia.
• "Here's the plan" section stays short and plain, and an "alternative participation" block gives non-hosts a role too.
• Visual feel: warm, photo-led, conversational (exact colors not stated on the fetched page).
