EXECUTIVE CHEF Jupiter Island Club Hobe Sound, Florida June 2020 INTRODUCTION to the position of EXECUTIVE CHEF Jupiter Island Club Hobe Sound, Florida June 2020 The Jupiter Island Club is unquestionably one of the finest clubs in America. In the history of private clubs, the Jupiter Island Club is iconic. Its Membership roster since its inception and today reflects some of our nation’s most notable philanthropists and industrialists who are also members of many of the country’s other top clubs. After building the railroad system to South Florida in 1933, its founding family forged the Club’s beginnings on the principles of privacy, casual elegance and warm and hospitable excellent service. Its style and feel are unpretentious and low-key, the antithesis of most clubs built in the last 20 years. Not just a club but an island community, the Jupiter Island Club is on the north end of Jupiter Island in Martin County, Florida, about 30 miles north of Palm Beach. This very insular retreat is home to an 18-hole golf course with many holes on the Intracoastal waterway, a Main Club with formal (150 seats) and informal dining (60 seats), Golf Clubhouse (200 seats) with various styles of dining service, a 36-slip yacht basin hosting power boats up to 100’, 14 fast dry tennis courts with Tennis Shop, croquet court, 200-seat theater, Flower Shop, Wine Shop, Beauty Shop, Beach Shop, and oceanfront Beach Club informal dining (175 seats), two pools, spa and fitness. The Main Club is a social hub for formal dining, breakfast and events. A portion of the Club’s 52 Inn rooms are in the Main Club along with the Chef’s Cupboard, which provides a retail hub for prepared foods. There are also nine cottages in the Club’s lodging program.

  • Treasure Coast FSA Post-Season Meeting 10/22/18 Notes American
    Treasure Coast FSA Post-season meeting 10/22/18 notes American Oystercatcher The AMOY population in the Indian River Lagoon Aquatic Preserve was discussed. Habitat preference was noted to be atypical in that birds will nest on islands in close proximity to tall vegetation, although often near the interior lagoons that exist on some islands. Habitat management to maintain early successional sites on spoil islands will continue for this species in the IRL AP. Also notable for this population was the presence of birds that appeared to be defending a nesting territory but did not nest. It was hypothesized that some environmental condition may be preventing the birds from nesting physiologically, like insufficient food resources or perhaps something more insidious like an environmental contaminant. Monitoring will continue. The AMOY pair at MC2 AKA Bird Island Critical Wildlife Area in Martin county nested and fledged one chick. Interest was expressed in banding the AMOY in the area to better understand movement patterns, site fidelity, survivorship, etc. A similar suggestion has been made for the AMOY in the Lake Worth Lagoon (Palm Beach County). Black Skimmer Rooftop-nesting Black Skimmers were successful at one Martin County rooftop site. One ground-nesting colony of Skimmers was present near the St. Lucie inlet in Martin County but were over washed before fledging any chicks. This represented the farthest south that any ground-nesting BLSK were observed in 2018. Least Tern Least terns successfully nested on one rooftop in each of our 3 counties. The Office Depot rooftop in Vero Beach had issues throughout the season with emergency rooftop/AC repairs.

  • Hobe Sound III
    Hobe Sound III. REFUGE National Wildlife Refuge ENVIRONMENT Section A. Draft Comprehensive Physical Environment Conservation Plan CHAPTER III - Refuge Climate Environment Located in southeast Florida, Hobe Sound National Wildlife Refuge is characterized by a subtropical climate. Temperatures very rarely fall below freezing in the winter months and often reach mid- to high-90s in the summer months of July, August, and September. Temperatures measured at the Palm Beach International Airport weather station range from an average annual maximum of 83oF to a minimum of 67oF (Winsberg 1990). The average January temper- ature is 65.1oF, and the average August temperature is 81.8oF. Specific weather data for the refuge is gathered from a fire weather station located at nearby Jonathan Dickinson State Park. According to this data, the refuge receives an average of 50 inches of rain per year, with most of it occurring from June through November. During the wet season, thunderstorms that result from easterly trade winds and land-sea convection patterns occur almost daily. Wet season rainfall follows a bimodal pattern with peaks during May-June and September-October. Tropical storms and hurricanes also provide major contributions to wet season rainfall with a high level of variability and a low level of predictability. During the dry season, rainfall is governed by large-scale winter weather fronts that pass through the region approximately every 2 weeks. High evapotransporation rates in south Florida roughly equal mean annual precipitation (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 2002). Air Quality The existing air quality within Martin County is considered good, and the region meets current National Ambient Air Quality Standards.
