While there will be less chefs, it will still be packed full of good eats, community connecting and more. The VIP area will be hosted by the recently opened Myrtle Ave. Brewing with small belly bites supplied by Route 90 BBQ. Feasting occurs Oct. 23rd from 6-9pm. www.chsfl.org

Jacksonville police, firefighters show off tools at safety fair
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - It was a sea of red and blue flashing lights, helicopters and more in the Avenues Mall parking lot Saturday for a safety fair put on by the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office and the Jacksonville Fire-Rescue Department. People also got a look inside an ambulance and a chance to meet the animals who work alongside officers and firefighters to keep Jacksonville safe. Louie Smith brought his two sons to the safety fair so they will feel comfortable if they ever need help from JFRD or JSO. "I've always taught them that they need to understand and respect police and firefighters, and they can ask them questions," Smith said. JSO and JFRD say they are passionate about being involved in the community and Saturday's safety fair is one way to help build that relationship.
