Military Affairs
For more than 50 years, the Cocoa Beach Regional Chamber of Commerce has been a valuable avenue of service and support to the military stationed in our Space Coast community. The very first efforts to support the military from the Chamber were organized and worked through a Military Committee. In 1991, the current Military Affairs Council (MAC) was formed and continues today to provide Chamber support for military members and their families.
The MAC is an all-volunteer group of Chamber investors from the local area, both civilian and military, working together to enhance the quality of life in our community, especially for the enlisted members of the services assigned to the Space Coast.
