Today's riddle: What happened to the pregnant cat that ate yarn? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Woodfield Country Club's Cosmetic Crisis Causing Traffic Backups On Clint Moore Road (bocanewsnow.com) — If you drive Clint Moore Road, expect long backups where Woodfield Country Club is building a new eight-foot wall along its golf course in Boca Raton. The city approved the project, but the lane closures and a security guard blocking U-turns are snarling traffic in an area that overlaps unincorporated Palm Beach County. Officials are now reviewing whether traffic and code rules are being followed.
2. Your Week Ahead: Sept. 8 to 14, 2026 (bocamag.com) — Boca Raton locals have a busy week ahead, including the opening of "Life's a Beach" at the Schmidt Boca Raton History Museum and a special MST3K: The RiffTrax Experiments screening at Cinemark Bistro. The guide also highlights notable performances in Coral Springs and Fort Lauderdale, giving you options from comedy and podcasts to cult TV riffs and a tribute tour by The Mavericks & Friends.
3. A New Exhibit from Historical Society of Palm Beach County, 'Shipwreck: Discovering Lost Treasures' (bocaratontribune.com) — Boca Raton residents can visit the Spanish River Library this fall for a free traveling exhibit, "Shipwreck: Discovering Lost Treasures," exploring historic wrecks and coastal finds along Palm Beach County's shores. Running September 28 through November 6, the display uses four interactive cubes to highlight how shipwrecks shaped local life, from survival and shelter to surprising discoveries of long-lost valuables.
4. General Counsel, Bloom Cannabis Boca Raton, FL 33432 (cannabislaw.report) — A major cannabis company is hiring a part-time in-office general counsel based at its Boca Raton corporate headquarters, three days a week. Local attorneys with senior leadership experience in highly regulated industries, especially cannabis, are sought to guide strategy, governance, and risk. The role includes overseeing contracts, compliance, and board meetings, plus occasional travel to Ohio and Maryland facilities.
5. Boca Raton Church Member Wrote His First Book at 88 and Gives the Money to Charity (tapinto.net) — An 89-year-old member of St. David Armenian Church in Boca Raton has written multiple memoir-style books and donates all proceeds to charities tied to his family's history and 9/11 losses. His life story spans immigration, overcoming a learning disability, running a Queens auto shop, and now living between Boca Raton and a Coconut Creek farm. Locals can find his books online and support his chosen causes.
