Hurricane Helene is intensifying and is expected to make landfall along the Gulf Coast Thursday evening; Palm Beach County is under a tropical storm warning. Although West Palm Beach is not in the eye of the storm, we do expect some impact from the outer bands of the storm.
Phipps Park Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony
The 2020 Parks Bond Issue improvements were on full display Saturday morning when Mayor Keith A. James and Parks & Recreation Director Leah Rockwell cut the ribbon at Phipps Park. Mayor James then tossed out the first pitch to begin the 2024 Phipps Park Youth Baseball season.
Renovations included the park's new concession building, new restroom facility, shade canopy, and a new 5 to 12-year-old playground.
