FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Friends of Jupiter Beach has named Lynne Gibbons managing director of the operations for the 11-year-old grassroots, not-for-profit group that sponsors monthly beach clean ups for 3 1/2 miles of Jupiter's beaches, and supplies more than 250,000 "doggy bags" annually - at no cost to the Town of Jupiter - in boxes at beach crossovers.  This organization serves as official Palm Beach County Adopt-a-Road organization for the Jupiter Beach stretch of A1A and Adopt-A-Spot group for Solid Waste Authority.
