The mission of the Safety Festival is to showcase the outstanding work being done by our local First Responders and to provide important safety information to those who attend.
Live demonstrations have proven to be a favorite of attendees. They are exciting, informative and demonstrate some of the tools and safety protocols available in St. Lucie County. The Port St. Lucie Police and St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office are working on SWAT, K-9, Bomb Disposal and Motorcycle demonstrations. They will also have drones, a driving simulator and robotics as part of their static and touch-a-truck displays.
The Fun Run will kick off the Safety Festival activities with registration at 7:00 am followed by the run at 7:30 am. Vendors, food trucks, touch-a-trucks and other displays will be open at 9:00 am and the event will end at 2:00 pm. Admission and parking are free.
In addition, a free kid's zone featuring bounce houses, face painting and more will be open throughout the event.
