Wellington is one of the safest communities to live in, and part of that is due to the hard work of Palm Beach County Fire-Rescue, which works around the clock to show up when Wellington residents need them. At the helm of PBCFR locally is District Chief Amanda Vomero, a Wellington resident who has been breaking barriers since she first joined the fire service in 2001.
Also this month, we join the Wellington Community Foundation in saluting the recipients of the 2026 Arle & Ken Adams Scholarships, presented in May. This year’s honorees, profiled in this issue, are Joseph Ayoub, Serena Amro Gazze, Georgeia Mareska and Jaidyn Rosenzweig Shapira.
Elsewhere in this issue, we meet the new members of the President’s Circle at the Greater Wellington Chamber of Commerce and head over to the Mall at Wellington Green to check out some perfect gifts for Father’s Day.
Our Wellington Philanthropy series continues this month with a look at the Wellington Council of Dads, founded in 2018 by John Sitomer. This wonderful group works primarily with student-athletes from the Wellington Wolves Youth Basketball organization, along with an array of other community projects. Finally, Wellington Table visits the newly opened Spiros Taverna on South Shore Blvd., which has brought a delightful array of traditional and authentic Greek favorites to Wellington.
We hope that you have some fun plans on tap for this summer, and we look forward to seeing you out and about in the community, taking in all of the activities that Wellington has to offer.
