SCORE Chapter 87 Volusia Flagler was honored by the Flagler County commission on Oct. 7 with a special proclamation recognizing SCORE's 60th anniversary.

SCORE was created on Oct. 4, 1964. Over six decades SCORE volunteers have shared their skills and expertise with entrepreneurs across America at no charge.

In both Flagler and Volusia counties, SCORE has strong ties with local chambers of commerce, businesses, colleges and universities and city and county governments participating in local economic development matters.

SCORE is currently recruiting new community volunteers to mentor small businesses and nonprofits to help them grow. 

SCORE Chapter 87 has been instrumental in providing input to the Flagler County Tourism Development Office, mentoring startup businesses and collaborating to form the Junior Chamber in both Flagler County high schools.
