The Chamber is non-partisan- we focus on issues and do not endorse specific candidates. The purpose of the Candidates Forum is to provide a venue for the candidates to inform the public about their platforms. The Chamber encourages the citizens of Beaufort, Port Royal and the Sea Islands to be informed and engaged.
