Jestena Boughton, owner of the landmark downtown hotel, continued a family tradition that began more than eight decades ago by giving back – this year, to the Delray Beach Historical Society. Boughton presented a $10,000 gift that will help the society in its mission to educate the community about the city’s history and ensure maintenance of archives. ‘This gift and those we’ve received in the past are really gifts to our town and future generations who, through our exhibits and our archives, will gain a better understanding of how Delray Beach came to be what it is today,’ society President Leslie Callaway said.
