Edition #2.2025

🌴 This week (Jan. 8 - Jan. 14) in Palm Beach & West Palm Beach

Hey Neighbor!

Have you heard of “Quitter’s Day”? Thanks to a recent Apple commercial, we learned that Quitter’s Day is the second Friday in January (January 10th this year) and, according to research, is the day that New Year’s resolutions are thrown out the window. 🗑️ This is particularly true of health and wellness goals, which seem to dominate the resolutions made every year.

For those of you that made a health or wellness resolution this year, we have good news. West Palm Beach and Palm Beach are making themselves quite the wellness haven these days, which may help you keep those resolutions alive past Friday (more on this below 👇️). For those of you that refuse to make resolutions, we applaud that you don’t need to wait for a new year to make the most of each day. 👏 

In This Edition:

  • 🏃 Beat Quitter’s Day with these activities

  • 🦖 Dino world record attempt?

  • 🤝 WPB gets busy with private clubs

NEWS

Quick & Dirty Headlines 🗞️ 

It’s the first full work week of the new year, and everyone’s looking to reset—even local airline Silver Airways. The airline 🛩️ has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, with up to $500 million in both debts and assets. So, if you were planning a flight from FLL to the Bahamas or around Florida, you’ll want to double check your travel plans (although Silver stated operations will continue as normal).

As we get back into the swing of things, expect the news cycle to pick up, too—lots more to come! 🌪️
