BOCA RATON – A cocktail reception to benefit the Florida Fishing Academy was held recently at the City Fish Market restaurant in West Boca Raton.
It featured Michael Dukakis, former governor of Massachusetts and the Democratic candidate for president in 1988. He has also taught at Northeastern University in Boston and Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton.
The evening included cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and a silent action.
