Mayor’s Update:

Congratulations to Boca Club News on a Milestone!

Scott Singer is the 35th Mayor of I look forward to seeing this publication each month email and with regular social media updates. As always,
Boca Raton and was re-elected and hope that community partners and institutions will I encourage you to stay connected for updates in between
without opposition for a final term. continue to share news and information that can help bring those you see here. You can follow me on social media
A South Florida native, attorney, our community together. The City of Boca Raton continues at @ScottSingerUSA. Thank you for being a part of our
mediator, and small business owner, to do the same, with our monthly newsletters available by thriving city!
Scott and his wife Bella live in Broken
Sound with their two young children.
It is with great pleasure that I
congratulate Boca Club News on
reaching the milestone of publishing its 200th issue! For a
time approaching two decades, editor Nils Shapiro and team
have produced an outstanding publication that informs and
entertains residents and has been a mainstay. Even though it is
only a monthly, it still breaks news and highlights community
events that would otherwise go unheralded. This publication
has currency, too: Several residents in my neighborhood of
Broken Sound have over the years commented on items they
saw in the “paper.” They didn’t mean just our local dailies,
the Post and Sun-Sentinel, but rather the Boca Club News.
Community newspapers like this one are important for
keeping neighbors connected and engaged.
I also want to say thank you to both the publishers and
readers because this milestone makes me realize that I’ve
authored articles in more than 100 editions. Starting with
my Council Corner column in 2014, and continuing with my
Message from the Mayor since 2018, I feel fortunate to share
news of the City of Boca Raton plans, policies, events and
happenings with constituents. My City Council colleagues
have also been able to share their insights and stories in a
rotating column since I became mayor.
