This Thursday we’re kicking off our Summer Listening Sessions. Come join us at several great spots in town and let me know what issues are most important to you.

[Andy Thomson @andythomsonboca]

I also want to hear your thoughts on the pending plan to redevelop our government campus; I’VE OPPOSED THIS PLAN FROM THE START, but I know the community is fired up about it and I want to give you a chance to voice your opinion.

[Andy Thomson @andythomsonboca]

FAU students: if you or someone you know might be interested in state and local government, this fall I’ll be back teaching Florida Government and we still have some spots open! Help spread the word!

If you want to participate (by kayak, paddleboard, or boat) to help keep Boca’s waterways clean, we would love to have you!  And we hope to roll out some related initiatives over the next few months, so stay tuned!

[Andy Thomson @andythomsonboca]

The City of Boca Raton has 77 miles of waterways.  Over the next year, the Thomson family is on a mission to kayak and clean all of them.

[Andy Thomson @andythomsonboca]

Thanks to the Miller family for letting us borrow their kayak and allowing us to launch from the perfect spot.
