About 25 companies will be taking part in this year’s 10th annual Military Job Fair put together by The Players in partnership with the Jacksonville Military Veterans Coalition.

The Saturday, March 6, job fair is scheduled to be held outdoors in The Grove behind the 17th tee near The Players Welcome Experience.

Given Saturday’s forecast of rain, The Players has a backup plan to host the free job fair inside the Championship Club hospitality structure.

It’s open to military personnel, veterans and military spouses who are seeking employment.
