Jacksonville’s Longest Table
On November 15th, Investment Manager Adam Oerther volunteered at Jacksonville’s Longest Table event, presented by JAX Chamber. From the event’s Facebook page:
“The Longest Table is a shared meal at one table that stretches more than 600 feet along Independent Drive to
foster conversation and build relationships across economic, racial, religious and ethnic backgrounds. The 2016 inaugural dinner drew more than 400 people from across Jacksonville for the open-air meal in downtown.”
As a member of ImpactJAX, the young professional arm of JAX Chamber, Adam signed up to volunteer as soon as he learned of the event.
“It sounded like a really cool idea, and I’ve never seen anything like it,” Adam said of the event. “I enjoyed serving and mingling with the residents from all over Jacksonville and meeting volunteers from several other organizations as well.”
