Destin Area Chamber of Commerce... One of the Nation's Top Three
Destin Area Chamber Press Release

     Destin, FL, June 20 - While in pursuit of its mission to build a world-class community one business at a time, the Destin Area Chamber of Commerce received another honor this week. Today, the American Chamber of Commerce Executives (ACCE) named this chamber one of the nation’s top three in its dues category.      The Destin Area Chamber of Commerce is now a finalist for the ACCE’s Membership Development Division Award for Excellence in the $200,000 - $499,000 dues category. This award is the “highest achievement in the membership development profession, recognizing an organization’s excellence in financial performance, member programs, internal operations, and organizational mission,” according to ACCE.

     The Chamber was selected as a finalist during an application process, which determined the Chamber’s excellence in programming and management. To qualify for the application process, the Chamber scored at or above the national average for net gain in new members, net gain in new member dollars, and retention rate, in the $200,000-$499,000 dues category.

     In August during the ACCE National Conference in St. Louis, MO, the finalists will undergo an interview process to further evaluate the finalists’ programs and management practices. The winning Chambers will be announced Saturday, August 13.
