Boca Helping Hands to Host Annual MONOPOLY® Event & Casino Night

MONOPOLY® game enthusiasts will have a chance to prove their skills while raising money for charity at the 16th Annual MONOPOLY® Event & Casino Night event. The night is hosted by Boca Helping Hands (BHH) at 6 p.m. on Saturday, April 30, at The Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club, 2425 West Maya Palm Dr. in Boca Raton. Guests will compete for the Boca Helping Hands title of MONOPOLY® Game Champion. The evening will include hors d’oeuvres and dinner, a silent and live auction by auctioneer Neil Saffer, casino gaming, and a DJ.

“This event is so much fun and unique,” Gary Peters says, president of Boca Helping Hands’ Board, a two-time National MONOPOLY® Champion who will serve as the MONOPOLY® tournament mediator. “Think about how you loved Monopoly as a kid. This is a great opportunity to enjoy the game again.”

Proceeds from the event will help assist Boca Helping Hands, a community-based nonprofit that provides food, medical, financial assistance, education, job training and guidance to over 27,000 people annually. Event sponsors include JM Family Enterprises, Gary Peters Family Foundation, Tandy and Joe Robinson, Rochelle LeCavalier and Peter and Susan Brockway.

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
