Boynton Beach Offers Some Pretty Nice Schools

By Jony Mozen


Finding the right place to study is nice. The population in Boynton Beach is about 68,000 and is a city in Florida, Palm Beach County. In 1921 they acquired a well known area for park and recreational purposes from Lewis S. Today it is better known as the Oceanfront Park. A beach casino was built just seven years later and had a large dining room hall with lockers and showers for the many social parties and gatherings.

In 1966 the City Commission approved the facilities on the beach and this was named the Walter A. Madsen Park. This was in appreciation for the Mayor, Vice-Mayor and City Councilman. This park has and still is a very popular place for many to visit whether one is a resident or a tourist. Over the years many renovations have taken place and this included restoring the dining area. The bathrooms and concessions were rebuilt and a boardwalk was laid down.

For those that are shopaholic's a visit to the mall is a must. The mall was built in 1985 and is now owned by Simon Property Group. There used to be a few different fountains with different statues but unfortunately only one now remains and is empty. There is a movie theater which houses 14 screens at the lifestyle center as well as plenty of places one can sit and enjoy different foods.

There is now a train which seats sixteen people that carry from one end of the mall to the other with stops on the way. This was replaced by the old Ward one which only ran during the Christmas and Easter season. The old carousel was replaced and now offers different rides that where there when the mall first opened in 1985.

This wood has got so many different names ranging from Ironwood to Greenheart. In France it is known as Bois Ipe and it is more popular because it is not very expensive and very durable. It normally grows in tropical South-central America. It can be found in marshes, on riverbanks and even on ridge tops. They can grow as tall as 140 feet which is one of the tallest trees in this region.

One thing that should be visited is the Flamingo gardens which stretch for over 60 acres. These Botanical Gardens have well over 3000 different kinds of rare, exotic, subtropical and tropical plants. Their Arboretum houses some of the biggest trees in the state of Florida.

The powder from this tree was used in herbal medicines as it was believed to help with many different conditions. Some of them were used in the treatment of ulcers, diabetes, boils and cancers. Unfortunately it is not used very often as it does have a few toxic side effects.

The place has been voted the best family beach by the The Palm Beach post. Every year these beaches see more and more people flocking to swim and watch the surf. The seas are relatively calm and are scattered with palm trees that provide shade for many.
