Palm Bay is one of only 118 communities that have each demonstrated creative commitments to the cause of play and earned this title.
"Support Our Troops" Makes a Difference
The annual "Support Our Troops" rally on May 15, 2010 at Veteran's Memorial Park included the 300 attendees signing multiple banners to show their support of our local Armed Forces. This photo depicts one of our Florida National Guard troops stationed in Africa with one of the banners. Thank you to everyone who attended the event and brightened the day of these brave men and women!
