PRSA Young Professionals 2009 Kick-Off Event at Solaris Restaurant
Do you want to make new PR connections? Would you like to hang out with other young PR professionals from the Triad? PRSA Tar Heel’s Young Professionals group welcomes the Triad’s up and coming PR practitioners as well as those from any other communication related fields. It’s the perfect setting to bounce around those on-the-job questions and challenges. Our monthly socials and professional development activities provide a relaxed environment to meet new people. Each month in 2009, we will select a different Triad location to host the meeting.
Our kick-off social for 2009 is a Meet & Eat at Solaris Restaurant in Downtown Greensboro on Tuesday, January 27th from 6 to 7:30 pm. Solaris offers great drinks and we’ll provide the tapas!
We hope to discuss the exciting ideas we have for the year ahead and also want to get feedback from members on their needs as young pros. The group is designed to help the city’s young professionals through peer support, leadership opportunities, professional development and job assistance.
Also in 2009, the group will officially be recognized by national PRSA as a New Professionals section. More details on this to come at the meeting including the formation of the executive board. The executive board members will help coordinate and plan activities for Young Pros. If you are interested in becoming a board member, please email youngpros@prsatarheel.org.
I look forward to seeing everyone at the meeting and kicking off a great year for the Tar Heel PRSA Young Pros!
