PALM COAST, FL – In light of recent state and local government decisions to end mask mandates, the Palm Coast-Flagler Regional Chamber is encouraging business leaders to attend the Hammock Beach Business Exchange on Monday, May 17, 2021, from 4-6 p.m. at the Hammock Beach Golf Resort and Spa.

The Business Exchange is a part of the Hammock Beach Hiring Fair, which will occur prior to the event, where dozens of local businesses will be hiring future employees “on the spot” for open positions.

“The Chamber urges the thousands of unemployed Flagler County residents to attend the Hammock Beach Hiring Fair. Employers continue to recover from the pandemic and want Flagler County residents on their payroll,” said Palm Coast-Flagler Regional Chamber of Commerce President & CEO Greg Blosé. ““Flagler County’s workforce is nearly 48,000 strong, an increase of two thousand from the beginning of the year. The Chamber is happy to support any effort that helps residents find work so that our economy can continue to recover from the COVID-19 recession.”

Blosé continued, “The Chamber also urges business leaders to attend the Business Exchange, as it’s the first time since government-backed mask mandates have been lifted that we can meet in person without masks.” The event will be held outdoors, under a tent, at the Hammock Beach Golf Resort and Spa.
