Atlantic Ave Magazine - June 2018

from the

Summer,
Summer,
Summertime!
IJune is here and with it comes...kids out of school, longer days,
balmy nights, and carefree weekends. The 21st marks the First
Day of Summer or our Summer Solstice. This occurs at exactly
6:07am - the moment our amazing Sun is directly over the Tropic
of Cancer - but what we really care about is the over 14 hours of daylight
we get to enjoy! The Summer Solstice has been celebrated since ancient
times and is still revered today. Some ways to honor our Sun is by making a
flower crown, spending the day outdoors or at the beach (with sunscreen,
of course), or by doing yoga Sun Salutations! The United Nations has declared
June 21st National Yoga Day - and in New York City’s Times Square
you can do yoga from sunup to sundown!
And while we are in celebratory mode, let’s also give Dads their day!
Sunday, June 17th is Father’s Day! Spend some time with Dad or let him
have a day all to himself - however you celebrate, remember all the wonderful
places Delray has to have fun in.
Our City Person this month is Ryan Boylston. He is a newly elected City
Commissioner and one of the most interesting people in our city. He does
many incredible things for our community, while also running several
businesses, that it made me wonder when he sleeps! And...he’s also a dad!
Have a wonderful June - look around, take a moment to appreciate our
YOU CAN MAKE IT
beautiful Sun and all it brings us. Hug your Dad.
“I’m gonna
soak up
the Sun,
I’m gonna tell
everyone”
