Do You Believe?<br />

Icertainly do! I believe in the magic of holidays. There<br />

is something very special about the last six weeks of<br />

every year. We prepare to visit or host family from<br />

near or far, we enjoy shopping for people we love, we<br />

become more aware of those in need and give, and we are<br />

reminded of how lucky we are… Yes – to me the holidays<br />

are magical. And during the holidays, Delray is extra special.<br />

There is the 100ft Christmas Tree with Santa at Old School<br />

Square that was named the best tree in Florida by Travel and<br />

Leisure in 2016, the Annual Boat Parade, the Grand Menorah<br />

Lighting at Old School Square, and a Family Friendly New<br />

Year’s Eve with fireworks to name a few! More details on<br />

these events and more inside this issue.<br />

There’s a new Chief in town! Allow us to introduce our<br />

new Chief of Police Russ Mager. He is a 26-year veteran<br />

of our police force and is deeply committed to serving<br />

our community! Read all about Chief Mager and all he’s<br />

accomplished in our regular feature City People.<br />

Special thanks to our readers and our loyal advertisers<br />

for another wonderful year of sharing with you all about our<br />

City and our people.<br />

Happy Holidays and<br />

Happy, Healthy New Year!<br />

Let<br />

yourself<br />

be silently<br />

drawn<br />

by the<br />

stronger<br />

pull of<br />

what you<br />

really love.<br />
