Bookmark their website, Hurricane Milton (volusia.org) and share with your employees, friends and family. Residents can also reach the CIC (Citizens Information Center) at 866-345-0345 with questions.
The Chamber office will be closed on Wednesday and Thursday. Your chamber staff will monitor the storm from safe locations and will respond to your questions and needs as long as they have electricity and internet access.
We know these are stressful times and will be thinking of our entire community throughout this storm. As always, let’s hope this is a practice run. Stay informed and be safe.
