First Responders Appreciation
MORE THAN A LUNCHEON. A COMMUNITY THANK YOU.
Every day across Bay County, first responders answer calls most of us hope we never have to make.
They enter dangerous situations, provide lifesaving care, protect our neighborhoods, respond in moments of crisis and serve our community around the clock.
For 15 years, the Bay County Chamber of Commerce has brought the business community together to say two simple but important words: thank you.
The First Responders Appreciation Luncheon is an opportunity to recognize the extraordinary men and women serving throughout Bay County and honor individuals whose courage, professionalism and commitment to others represent the very best of our community.
Join us as businesses, community leaders and first responder agencies come together to celebrate those who answer the call.
HELP US FIND BAY COUNTY'S 2026 FIRST RESPONDERS OF THE YEAR
Some acts of service deserve to be recognized.
Do you know a first responder who went above and beyond?
The Bay County Chamber of Commerce is accepting nominations for the First Responder of the Year Awards. Community members, businesses, colleagues and agencies are encouraged to help us recognize individuals whose service has made an exceptional impact.
BRINGING BUSINESS & FIRST RESPONDERS TOGETHER
A strong community depends on those who protect it—and the businesses that stand behind them.
The First Responders Appreciation Luncheon brings Bay County's business community together with the agencies and professionals who serve our residents every day.
Through this annual tradition, Chamber members have an opportunity not only to express their gratitude, but to build stronger relationships between our business community and the people who help keep Bay County safe.
