WE ARE<br />
DELRAY<br />
Our gateway to the sea, <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>,<br />
reserves it’s fun for us locals this time<br />
of year. During June, <strong>July</strong>, and August<br />
you can enjoy the ease of trying a new restaurant<br />
or local brewery. You can taste local<br />
beer and burgers from a food truck, listen<br />
to local music and smile…. all in your own<br />
backyard! Or you can jump on the Lady <strong>Atlantic</strong><br />
and ACT like a tourist, enjoying the intercoastal<br />
sites while sipping a tropical drink<br />
and remembering you really LIVE here!<br />
You can breeze into Throw Social and try<br />
your hand at axe throwing or a game at Silverball<br />
Museum. Or stop by Sandoway Discovery<br />
Center and let your kids get to know<br />
all the cool animals that reside there.<br />

Let’s Savor Summertime!<br />
As the weather heats up and the snowbirds go home,<br />
summertime comes to Delray. It is a season when the locals<br />
can walk <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong> at a slower pace, find a seat in the<br />
newest restaurant, or enjoy an impromptu game of putt putt<br />
in the evening breeze. This month, let’s celebrate all the<br />
wonder of summer fun in Delray -- without all the visitors!<br />
head to one of our wildlife parks for a<br />
peaceful nature walk. Rent a bike or golf<br />
cart and coast along A1A. Take your kids to<br />
Catherine Strong Splash Park for some water<br />
fun, or dare to dip your feet into a tank<br />
at WTF Lounge for the “Minnow nibbling”<br />
(prepare to laugh out loud!).<br />
All without reservations or planning…...<br />
all in a fun, spontaneous, summer way.<br />
Want to try something you have never<br />
done before WITHOUT a large group<br />
watching you? Maybe a yoga class – you can<br />
just drop in and take one! Want to get an IV<br />
drip, sit in a salt room, or get a massage?<br />
How about a stretch zone or group fitness<br />
class? Summertime is the time to try -- just<br />
walk in and do it.<br />
t h e<br />
C h a m b e r<br />
And what about during the hottest part of<br />
the day? When it is just too warm to stroll?<br />
You can head east or west to a cool theater<br />
and enjoy the newest summer movie, stroll<br />
our many art galleries and museums, or<br />
take in a live show at Arts Garage. Enjoy<br />
an evening drink at the Courtyard Marriott<br />
rooftop bar, or at Aloft’s WXYZ Bar. All on a<br />
whim, all with ease.<br />
No matter what road you pick, what activity<br />
or food or fun you happen upon, marvel<br />
at the fact that these months are the<br />
months to jump in and try. You have all this<br />
wonderful fun at your fingertips, all summer<br />
long. Go for it!<br />
We Are Delray – and we are lucky to call<br />
this magical summer place HOME!<br />
