September 12th-14th
📬 Hey Jupiter friends,
As we move into the weekend, let’s take a moment to remember the heroes of September 11 — those we lost, the first responders who ran toward danger, and the countless everyday people whose courage still inspires us 24 years later. Their legacy is a reminder to look out for each other and to never take a single day for granted. 🇺🇸
Here at home, there’s some news from town hall. On Tuesday, Town Manager Frank Kitzerow named Don Hennessy, a 23-year veteran of the Jupiter Police Department, as our new Interim Chief of Police, effective Friday, October 3. A big thank you to him for his decades of service and for stepping up to lead. 👮♂️🌴
We’d also like to start shining a light on some of our favorite local businesses each week. This time, it’s all about I Need Coffee ☕. Have you seen the hidden room at @ineedcoffeejupiter? It’s like a tiny little coffee speakeasy tucked away in Jupiter! If you’ve never been, this is a great spot to get your caffeine fix and soak in some cozy vibes. Check it out on Instagram too!
With reflection in our hearts, gratitude for the folks who keep our community strong, and caffeine fueling us up, let’s dive into the weekend ahead — packed with local events, markets, music, and more.
