Crestwood Ward 2 Alderman Justin Charboneau will host his first “Juice With Justin” event from 10 to 11 a.m. Saturday, March 5, at the city’s Government Center, 1 Detjen Drive.

The event will be an informal open forum where citizens will have an opportunity to connect with Charboneau on issues regarding the city, as well as share ideas they have regarding community improvement, according to a news release.

“I feel it’s important to allow individuals the opportunity to openly share their thoughts and ideas — I want this to be more of a conversation we’d have around the kitchen table, versus one that happens in a formal board room,” Char-boneau stated in the re-lease.

The alderman plans on hosting multiple “Juice With Justin” events throughout the year, with future meet-ups being held at local businesses.
