On Monday November 16, 2015 ARMAC will be hosting the 63rd Annual Military Appreciation Luncheon at the Cobb Galleria Centre and will start at 11:00 a.m. This luncheon is a celebration of Cobb’s military community. A major highlight will be the presentation of the 2015 USO Patriot of the Year Award.
This year we’re proud to have Congressman Mac Thornberry, Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee. The Armed Services Committee has the responsibility to oversee the Pentagon, all military services, and the Department of the Defense agencies, including their budgets and polices. Congressman Thornberry is committed to ensuring that the United States has the military capability and agility to protect the nation and our interests around the world. In Congress, he has previously served on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, as well as on the Budget Committee, Resources Committee, and the Select Committee on Homeland Security. He was also tapped to chair the Task Force on Cybersecurity in 2011 and 2012.
ARMAC was founded more than 50 years ago as a program under the auspices of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce and was moved to the Cobb Chamber of Commerce in 1999.
Every major military installation and military command in the metropolitan Atlanta area has a representative on the council’s executive committee and the men and women who serve on ARMAC are justly proud of the council’s service.
Registration for this signature event ends on November 9, 2015 so make sure to visit http://www.cobbchamber.org/Member-Services/Military-Appreciation-Luncheon.aspx for more information!
