Indian River Colony Club Preferred for Tournaments

Charities like Viera location, course conditions and amenities for their fundraisers. An estimated one million golf tournaments are held each year in the United States, netting an average $10,000 or more in a single enjoyable day. For many charities and non-profits in sunny Florida, an annual tournament is the fundraising tool of choice. And deciding where to hold the event is key. For a growing number of charities on the Space Coast, Indian River Colony Club (IRCC) has become the go-to spot for tournaments.

Military Uniforms Collected for ‘Dover Detail’

Veterans from Indian River Colony Club donate clothing for military burials. The Indian River Colony Club Foundation, the charitable arm of the 55+ Viera golf community of military veterans, recently collected uniforms and service-specific apparel items to be used for the burial of veterans, particularly those who are homeless or destitute. The April 16 donation benefits The Dover Detail, a special outreach of Down the Road Thrift in Cocoa, owned by veteran Jerry Vaughan.

Florida's Space Coast - Great American Defense Communities

Did you know that the Space Coast is one of just five recently named Great American Defense Communities for 2022? According to the April 6 press release from Washington, D.C. –

Florida’s Space Coast, home to Patrick Space Force Base and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, is one of five communities across the country named to the 2022 Class of Great American Defense Communities.

The Association of Defense Communities (ADC) announced the five selected communities in conjunction with USAA, the program’s official sponsor at the Defense Communities National Summit earlier this month. The 2022 class also includes West Valley Partners, Ariz., Tullahoma, Tenn., Antelope Valley, Calif., and Northern Virginia.

“Our military needs America’s defense communities to support them,” ADC President Bob Ross said. “We selected Florida’s Space Coast because they are a region that consistently goes above and beyond to support service members, veterans, and military families living in their community.”
