News for Lake Worth's beat reporter from the Post* vis-à-vis the July 4th Parade/Raft Race

Greetings friends and neighbors of the Tropical Ridge Neighborhood Association:

Our July meeting is cancelled. Too many people are out of town and it falls on July 4th. Our next meeting will be on August 1st.

I heard from the NAPC President Jon Faust [Press Release] and Mary Lindsey. The 15th Annual Great American Raft Race has not been cancelled [as of 6/28]. The algae situation is being monitored by Environmental Resource Management. The NAPC will let everyone know immediately if it becomes necessary to change any planned events.

Have a safe and happy July 4th and look forward to seeing you on August 1st.

Carolyn

*Note: The Parade start time is 11:00. The start time given in the Post print edition on Monday, 6/27, is wrong.
