“EMACC is extremely proud to have served our local businesses and communities for the last 95 years,” said Jennifer Eckhoff, Executive Director. “This event will honor our history and celebrate our future in the beautiful setting the Molly Pitcher Inn offers.”
“We are looking forward to celebrating our long-time members who provide a wide variety of unique services to our community, and thank them for playing a vital role in our Monmouth County towns,” said Eckhoff. “We invite community members from our area to join us for a great event.”
EMACC began in 1928 when 12 businessmen banded together to form the “Red Bank Chamber of Commerce” to serve the business interests of downtown Red Bank. Over the next 28 years, the organization’s membership grew beyond the borders of Red Bank and was renamed the Greater Red Bank Chamber of Commerce and then the Red Bank Area Chamber of Commerce.
In 1995, the name and service area were changed to the “Eastern Monmouth Area Chamber of Commerce” to better reflect the organization’s growing membership and the rapidly expanding business interests in the neighboring communities of Eatontown, Fair Haven, Little Silver, Monmouth Beach, Oceanport, Rumson, Sea Bright, Shrewsbury and Tinton Falls.
