The Healthy Lifestyle Expo hosts Speakers Square during designated hours on Friday, May 19 and Saturday, May 20 on the exhibit floor. The lineup features Jim Klock of Fredericksburg, VA, who doesn’t just play a police officer in movies and on TV, he lives the part having served 19 years in law enforcement in both Alexandria and Stafford, VA. Klock, still a part-time deputy sheriff for Stafford County, has worked and trained in many areas of law enforcement including SWAT tactics and hostage negotiations. He is also a former narcotics detective who has most recently appeared in films including “Deep Water Horizon.” His television series credits include “True Detective,” “Scream Queens,” “The Astronaut Wives Club,” “24,” and “The Wire,” to name a few.

Come say “hello” to Jim on Friday or Saturday. Listen to tips on how to handle Hospital Hill and run strong from Lucky Road.
