Subscription renewals for current members run May 26 through June 30, non-member renewals follow July 7 through August 3, and new subscription sales come after that, all tied to the theater at 11051 Campus Drive.

Field of Greens plans two Palm Beach Gardens locations
Field of Greens, the Palm Beach-born fast-casual chain run by Hess Musallet and Myron Miller, filed DBPR permits for two Palm Beach Gardens spots — Alton Town Center at 5320 Donald Ross Road and Avenir at 12485 Northlake Boulevard — with juices, salads, and breakfast and lunch on the menu.

Smoke & Maple Gastropub picks Avenir for its first location
Smoke & Maple Gastropub, a locally owned spot serving rustic, refined fare, plans its first location at Avenir, 12325 Northlake Blvd., Suite 130, with a late-spring 2026 opening anticipated. The owner says the team chose Avenir because he lives in the neighborhood and watched the development take shape. The address places it inside the Avenir growth area, where new housing and retail have been reshaping the western edge of Palm Beach Gardens. (What Now Miami)
Stop-loss insurance selection committee meets June 10
The city's selection committee for RFP2026-081HR, covering stop-loss insurance, holds its kickoff meeting June 10 from 3 to 4 p.m. at 10500 N. Military Trail. Stop-loss coverage is the kind of back-office contract that can still affect city risk planning, because it helps cap exposure on larger health-plan claims. (City of Palm Beach Gardens)
Police Pension board meets June 11
The Police Pension board meets June 11 from 9 a.m. to noon at 10500 N. Military Trail. The meeting is one of the city’s routine public-board sessions, but it is still a public money item because pension boards oversee retirement-plan governance for sworn personnel. (City of Palm Beach Gardens)
Sandhill Crane posts Monday course closure for June 15
Sandhill Crane Golf Course and The Nest Par 3 list a Monday, June 15 closure for both courses and all practice facilities, including the driving ranges, while crews handle routine maintenance and summer projects. The Dancing Crane remains open from 3 to 8 p.m., and normal Monday operations are scheduled to resume October 5. For golfers, the practical note is that both the full course and The Nest Par 3 are affected, along with the practice facilities, so the listed Monday closure is broader than a single-course maintenance window.
