WSH is proud to announce that Managing Director Jamie A. Cole and his team, the “Fiscal Cliff Hangers,” won this year’s Hunt. The Herald Hunt (originally called the Tropic Hunt) is a major South Florida event that has taken place almost every year since 1984 and is hosted by celebrated authors Dave Barry and Tom Shroder. Each year, the Hunt attracts thousands of people, including locals and out-of-state participants, who maneuver through a series of brainteasers, hoping to win the grand prize of an 8 day cruise for eight people aboard the Carnival Breeze. This year’s Herald Hunt took place on December 1 at Coconut Grove’s Peacock Park.
In an interview with the Miami Herald, Jamie and his teammates explained how they solved the brain-wracking riddles, and expressed their joy over winning the coveted grand prize. “We’re psyched,” Jamie admitted. The sentiment was echoed by his fellow Fiscal Cliff Hangers and longtime Hunt partners, wife Debbie Cole, daughter Julie Cole, and friends Peter (Managing Director at Transworld Business Brokers) and Caren Berg (Senior Vice President at Boardroom Communications). The Fiscal Cliff Hangers actually solved the Hunt fifteen minutes before the final clue was given, achieving a new Hunt record.
In addition to his role as Managing Director, Jamie is a skilled litigator and appellate advocate who represents private and public clients with an emphasis on complex litigation and governmental matters, and serves as City Attorney for the cities of Miramar and Weston.
