T

he Emerald Grand at HarborWalk Village was the perfect setting for the 2nd annual 
Coastal Boil. The Boil, which was also presented by Northwest Florida Chapter of 
FRLA, brought Harborwalk Village alive with the smell of fresh cooked, delicious 
seafood in a boil bag full of 10-12 jumbo Gulf shrimp, andouille sausage links, corn on 

the cob, and new potatoes. For the mid November event, the weather was perfect and Live music 
was featured on the main stage from I’magene & Luke Langford Band. Beer tastings were available 
from sponsor, Heineken. Additional sponsors for the event included Coca-Cola and Big Kahuna’s 
Water and Adventure Park. The price for the event was $25 per person.

are invited and encouraged to dive in and make memories that will last a lifetime. The Village is
