One of the journalists contributing to our favorite newspaper, the Palm Beach Post, wrote an article about Palm Beach National Closes for Summer Renovations. But the problem with it is, the writer attributed the Palm Beach National Golf Course to Lake Worth (Beach).
The News media still, to this day, has not understood this name change and where it is applicable. Can't say that I blame them because only a small number of people voted for this name change--2,766 voters bothered to show up at the polls on this important vote to change the name of our city after 106 years. 62 votes changed our history forever.

Even though this was a "Special to the Post," you would think some editor would have noticed the mistake.

ReplyDeleteThey never will! It's our problem, not theirs. Nobody outside of this little Hamlet cares. It should never have been done, and I keep hoping it can still be reversed.
ReplyDeleteDidn't you say you stopped reading the Post?
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh still crying about the “name change”? We added Beach to Lake Worth it’s done, get over it, quit crying and start campaigning to throw out any council members you don’t agree with and stop whining about term limits. Sad!
ReplyDelete@2:43...just making an observation about the most stupid vote ever in this city. BWAA, BWAA.
ReplyDeleteTerm Limits is a great idea.
