Sheriff Shoar to brief advisory council

St. Johns County Sheriff David Shoar advised local reporters with Historic City News that he will be briefing members of the Sheriff’s Advisory Council at a reception for all district councils this Thursday evening.

Sheriff Shoar will welcome all advisory council members and interested citizens. Refreshments will be served.

This reception is open to the public between 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. at is being held at the St. Johns County Agricultural Center located at 3125 Agricultural Center Drive off CR-208.
