February event

The February SCYPN event at Flying Pig in Everett was a fun and friendly social event. I met several new people and enjoyed chatting with other yp's that have attended previous events. The food was great, the conversations were engaging, and I had the opportunity to learn from other's experiences. I am looking forward to the next event and meeting new people. ~Sarai

Why YPs Matter

Look around your office and your community...notice anything? Most of the individuals in decision-making positions are over 50. While retirement may not be as close as some may have though before the recession, the fact remains the same - young professionals represent the future of our community.

As baby boomer slowly inch away from their regular responsibilities at work in our communities, our generation will be left carrying the proverbial torch. While the much-feared mass exodus of baby boomers from the workforce looks unlikely, YPs are going to be required to step up and lead our communities over the next decade.

In order to lead effectively, YPs will need to acquire the necessary skills, knowledge and relationship. SCYPN programs and events are aimed at further developing these three areas providing insightful guest speakers, group volunteer activities and engaging social events.
