We have two important goals:  To help you form lasting friendships through networking within the group, community and the Chamber of Commerce and to give back to the community through fundraising and volunteer efforts.  All of this is done through several committees that work hard to make sure events are planned and volunteer projects are covered.  Our committees are chosen every April and run for an entire year. 

Luncheons/Mixers/Entertainment Committee:  This committee can consist of as many YP’s as necessary to keep up with the luncheon and mixer schedule.  Responsibilities include coordinating luncheons, mixers and other fun activites with restaurant and speakers.

Volunteer Committee:  This committee is responsible for coordinating with local programs for the YP’s to volunteer as a group.  Responsibilities include contacting various businesses and non-profit organizations within the community that are in need of group volunteers.

Public Relations Committee:  This committe is responsible for communications to our members and the public.  Responsibilities include assistanting with press releases for the Chamber and Young Professional’s newsletters, and the Star Democrat.  Assisting the Chamber’s marketing director with the newsletter and social media postings.

We will be reaching out for new members in February and March of 2012 in our newsletter and Facebook!
