Citizens interested in serving their communities by holding political office have the opportunity to learn about various aspects of pursuing public office, campaigning, and what is expected of a candidate. Hearing first-hand from people involved in the election, such as the Supervisor of Elections, campaign managers, and successful officeholders, gives participants a well-rounded view of what to expect when seeking political office at the local, state, and federal levels.
When issues at the state or federal government level have an impact
on your business, a collective voice and access to expertise is critical.
Cornerstone Events are designed to help you decipher complex
political issues by bringing experts in the field to the table to share
their knowledge. On occasions when the voice of business needs
to be heard at the highest levels, we provide the connections to our
elected officials to ensure they are hearing directly from you…our local
business leaders and their constituents. Advocacy is the cornerstone of
our work at the Daytona Regional Chamber.
