More about Allies for Cherry Point's Tomorrow

Allies for Cherry Point’s Tomorrow, or ACT, was founded in the 1990s as a group of concerned civic and business leaders to advocate for MCAS Cherry Point and FRC East during early rounds of the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) process. The original group called itself “Allies In Defense of Cherry Point” and was successful in removing the air station and the NADEP from the closure list.

In 2003, the name changed to Allies for Cherry Point’s Tomorrow because this group of leaders from Craven, Carteret, Pamlico and Jones Counties believed that the next BRAC commission should ensure that the missions of MCAS Cherry Point and FRC East be maintained as they are critical facilities in the nation’s military infrastructure.

It is our goal to educate policy makers, Cherry Point employees, news media and the general public about the importance of Cherry Point to our national defense and regional economy. We want to create a network of motivated citizens who will join ACT’s advocacy efforts on behalf of Cherry Point.
