Calling all Young Professionals! NCYP is back in March of 2018 with a unique twist on networking. We are honored to have Fortis Fitness & YOGALUX host a 45-minute mini boot camp workout followed by drinks, hors d’oeuvres and networking. All members of North County Chambers are welcome to join us and break the ice by breaking a little sweat.
Founded by the Carlsbad, Oceanside, San Marcos and Vista chambers of commerce, the North County Young Professionals group is geared towards those ages 21-39 who are interested in professional development and networking. Building your network is a crucial, if not the most crucial, aspect of developing your professional career, and the skill takes time for most people to learn and get comfortable with. With five generations in the workforce currently, there are some differences in communication styles and preferences. Everyone deserves a place where they feel comfortable, and for those young professionals who crave an opportunity to get together and form relationships with others we will “grow up” professionally with, NCYP is here.
March’s NetWorkout is a chance to get outside your daily routine, step out of your comfort zone and into the gym, connecting with your peers in the community. Though the concept of “sweatworking” is not new, this will be the first event of its kind for the Carlsbad Chamber, and we are pumped for it!
Wednesday, March 7 | 5 – 7pm
