Message from the President
|
A few years back Dawn Bittar, with 321 Plumbing, was a very active member of the Greater Palm Bay Chamber of Commerce. Sadly, her daughter Cathy passed away on Monday. There will be a viewing on August 4 from 4:00 - 8:00 p.m. at Fountainhead, 7359 Babcock Street SE, Palm Bay and a Celebration of Life Service on August 5 at 2:00 p.m. at St. Anthony the Great Orthodox Church at 4031 Aurora Road, Melbourne.
Do not forget to ensure your membership with the Chamber is current. All those in good standing as of August 18 will get a free listing in the 2018 Business Directory and Community Guide
. We are printing 10,000 copies of the guide and there will be a digital version on the Chamber website along with the cities of Palm Bay, West Melbourne and Melbourne. This is huge exposure for your membership.
