CONNECTIONS OVER COCKTAILS - Community Gems Series

ABOUT THIS EVENT

Every community has a story worth telling.

Every organization has relationships to build.

Every leader has something valuable to share.

Join us for the next edition of the Community Gems Series, a unique networking experience designed to bring together professionals, business owners, nonprofit leaders, entrepreneurs, community organizations, and changemakers from across the region.

This isn't a room full of elevator pitches.

It's a room full of communities.

Whether you represent a business, nonprofit, veterans organization, professional association, church, civic group, networking organization, or simply want to expand your circle, Community Gems is your opportunity to discover people and organizations you may never have met otherwise.

Throughout the evening you'll meet leaders from diverse communities, hear about the work they're doing, exchange ideas, and build relationships that continue long after the event ends.

Because the strongest communities aren't built alone.

They're built together.

COMMUNITY GEMS SPOTLIGHT

Several organizations will be invited to briefly introduce their community by sharing:

• Who they are
