This weekend in St. Marys, GA

A weekly running club that gets people moving, encourages new connections, and includes coffee.

Experience Fernandina's original arts market, where local creators and small vendors showcase unique handmade pieces you will not find elsewhere. Browse at your own pace, pick up gifts or keepsakes, and know your purchases support area artists. The farmers market is just a block away, making it easy to explore both on the same outing.

Enjoy a calming Qigong session on the sand in front of Elizabeth Pointe Lodge in Fernandina Beach. This beginner-focused class introduces gentle, flowing movements with mindful breathing and relaxation to support balance, mobility, flexibility, energy, and overall well-being. All experience levels are welcome, no equipment or reservations are needed, and contributions are optional. Move at a comfortable pace, bring water, and wear comfortable clothing for a peaceful experience by the ocean.

An open Al-Anon meeting of the S.O.S. Al-Anon Family Group provides a welcoming space at The Alachua Club in Fernandina Beach on Amelia Island. This fellowship serves relatives and friends of alcoholics, and it is separate from AA because it is not intended for the person with the drinking problem. The group meets each week, and meetings are free and confidential, with newcomers welcome. There is no simple solution to stop someone from drinking. Participants learn ways to cope with the challenges that come with another person’s alcohol use, gain a better understanding of how families are affected, and explore healthier responses. By sharing experiences and encouragement, many feel less alone, discover new perspectives, and focus on living one day at a time. Support is available whether the drinker in your life is still using, sober, in recovery, unwilling to seek help, or no longer present. Because this is an open meeting, family members and friends are welcome, and observers may attend as well, including professionals, medical staff, students, reporters, and anyone interested in learning about the impact of alcohol on loved ones. The location is accessible. S.O.S. Al-Anon Family Group, AFG #2564, is part of North Florida District 3.

The Honey Badgers, hailing from Fernandina Beach, bring a high-energy show with upbeat tunes and food trucks. Presented with support from Jerry Lee's Music Store and Visit St. Marys GA.
