BREVARD COUNTY • PALM BAY, FLORIDA – The Greater Palm Bay Chamber of Commerce will feature former Palm Bay police chief and current U.S. Marshall, William “Bill” Berger as the keynote speaker for the organization’s membership luncheon on March 5.

Berger will address the members and guests about the history of the U.S. Marshal Service and his role as the Marshal for the local district.
“Most business leaders don’t interface with this level of law enforcement in their lifetime,” said Vicki Northrup, President & CEO of the Greater Palm Bay Chamber of Commerce.
“To have our former chief of police return to Palm Bay to educate and inform our businesses about this important U.S. department is a topic that is welcomed.”
