Thank you to George Weide of Boynton Beach, who wrote to suggest we check with the City of Boynton Beach about the installation date of the current boardwalk in Oceanfront Park. As a regular beach visitor during the 1990s, he suggested the city might have given us the wrong date. He was right. We checked back with the city and learned that the current recycled plastic boardwalk was installed in 1994, not in 1986, as we published in our last edition.
Thank you to Stacey Winick of Delray Beach, who wrote to offer kind and constructive feedback concerning how tightly rolled The Coastal Star is when delivered — and how it often ends up in the bushes rather than the driveway. I’ll address delivery packaging first: Since The Coastal Star is delivered for free to our neighbors, we use the complimentary plastic bags that our printer provides. We are exploring the cost of using larger bags and hope to in the future. On that other delivery issue: I’ll speak to the publisher (my husband). He and I deliver the papers each month. I drive, he throws. I’ll ask him to try to avoid the bushes.
If you’d like to pick up a flat copy of the paper, they are usually available at the following Delray Beach area locations: The Trouser Shop, Atlantic Avenue; Huber’s Drugs, Atlantic Avenue; Old School Square, Swinton Avenue.
