Happy<br />
Birthday<br />
America!<br />
This year on <strong>July</strong> 4th, we celebrate<br />
Lisa Mizen, editor<br />
our 247th birthday. A time<br />
to celebrate the birth of the<br />
United States and to honor the<br />
contributions of the founding fathers who made it possible.<br />
The American flag stands for our country’s values of freedom, liberty, and justice, and is<br />
commonly seen during our nation’s celebrations and especially right here in Delray Beach. The<br />
4th of <strong>July</strong> Celebration begins at 5pm on East <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong> and AIA, with the raising of the 60’<br />
flag, an honor guard and the singing of the National Anthem. A sight to be seen that will leave<br />
you with a lump in your throat and a feeling of pure patriotism. Following this you can stroll<br />
along the traffic-free street and enjoy food, contests, entertainment and more. Don’t miss the<br />
fireworks starting at 9pm.<br />

Mimi Haley Meister: A Force For Good is our City Person this month. She is a phenomenon<br />
when it comes to fundraising and there are an abundance of people testifying to this. “Mimi<br />
supports all non-profits and makes everyone feel good for the mission, whether it’s St Vincent<br />
Ferrer School, OSS, The Delray Beach Public Library, Sandoway House or the Delray Chamber.<br />
We call her events the Friendraisers!” said Louise Glover.<br />
Swing into Summer and enjoy all that Delray Beach has to offer!
