April - YEPresent
Location: Liquid Lunch Shelton
Date: April 11th 

Spring is finally upon us! Join YEP for our first Spring YEPresent

As some of you probably know, the Liquid Lunch on Research Drive is inside a corporate building on the lower level. That means there is plenty of parking! There is plenty of space inside the restaurant and the food is amazing. 

This event is sure be fun, so don't miss out. And don't forget to bring your business cards!

Do some Spring cleaning! As you might have heard, My Sister's Place has recently lost a great deal of their inventory due to smoke damage. See the In The Community section below for more details. 
 
Please take a few moments to look through your closets and kitchens and gather some items that are in good condition that you no longer need. 

We will be collecting these items during our YEPresent to be donated to My Sister's Place. Some items they need include clothing, jewelry, cups, plates, flatware, and other housewares.

YEP's lively after hour events make it easy for area young professionals (in their 20's & 30's) to build their professional and social network that both natives and transplants can instantly engage in.  

 

Is it your time to emerge?

Are you new to a career and don't know where to turn? Do you want to grow your business, but don't know where to do it? Do you want to meet great new business contacts but don't know where to start? This is an ongoing problem for young professionals in today's market place. That is why the Greater Valley Chamber of Commerce formed Young Emerging Professionals (YEP) for individuals in their 20's and 30's in the region.
