Mercedes-Benz Club of America Southern Stars Chapter will be at the Caffeine & Octane Jacksonville, hosted at The Avenues Mall in Jacksonville, FL.
On December 13, 2025, we are the "First Coast Car Council" (FCCC) Featured Car Club of the Month (FCCOTM), and will be located in a special corral within the "Central Lot," in the same row as the Caffeine and Octane black and white checkered dome tent!
For the last few years, Mercedes-Benz Club Members and friends of the club have shared an enormous amount of toys at our FCCOM reserved parking area! Can we beat last year's record? We will be collecting new, unwrapped toys.
Please bring a new unwrapped toy(s) for deserving children, and let's see if we can break our record last year!
We've crafted a link and QR code for some toy ideas available on Amazon Prime under $25, with a four-star rating or higher!

Beginning around 6:15 a.m., club leadership will begin to assemble in the “Central Lot” at Caffeine & Octane Jacksonville to prepare for the event starting at 7:30 a.m.
Chick-fil-A, as well as restrooms in the Avenues Mall food court, will open early for Caffeine and Octane attendees at 7:30 a.m. (Yes, they serve coffee!) You are encouraged to arrive before 7:45 am to find a nice spot with us if you would like to park with us in the Central Lot.

Cover photo for event was shot by Caffeine and Octane Jacksonville’s guest photographer, Marcello Murillo, via Deremer Studios, in 2024, sharing our Chapter's decorated tree, a wide variety of donated toys, including, for multiple years, a bicycle attached to a RENNtech-enhanced E 55 sedan, shared by the Louis family!
