The JAX Chamber hosted the “Longest Table” community dinner, back for its first time in two years.
At a drive-up turkey and gift card giveaway on the Northside, 100 turkeys were handed out. Radio personality GeneDotCom, with V101.5, says the gift cards help ease family stresses during this time of year.“We always give away money every week,” he explained. “So we kind of make it like a scavenger hunt and we go on Instagram and if you follow us and if you add the location you get the money.”
“It’s very important ‘cause there’s a lot of hurting people out there financially, the holidays are coming and, you know, this is our way of giving back to a community that gives us so much,” the radio personality said. Ray Driver, the chair of the Chamber, said he was thrilled to see the tables out for a feast that brought out hundreds.
