This organization was set up by the Brevard Veterans Council to
operate the Center & Park. Day to day
operation is handled by a 17 member Executive Board, which the
council
elects from representatives nominated by the Veterans organizations
in Brevard County. This is a 501(c)3 not for profit organization.
Individual membership cost is the same as for the Council
organizational members. Membership of the Brevard Veterans Council
automatically includes Center membership.
There
are two primary programs managed by the Center, the Military Museum
and the Multi-Media Library.
Museum:

museum is maintained to display military artifacts and memorabilia
of all wars in which the United States has been engaged since the

loaned for display, and all military services are represented.
Admission is FREE.
HOURS: Monday - Saturday, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, Sunday noon to
