Cape Cod Young Professionals

Hookers speak to the Cape Cod Young Professionals

Ok..Ok..Not those kind of Hookers! 

Paul Parker, Executive Director of the Cape Cod Commercial Hook Fishemans Association will be the featured speaker at the CCYP evening event at Chatham Bars Inn on Thursday, March 8th from 5:30 - 7:30pm.  If you've never heard Paul speak, this is a great opportunity to learn about this vital Cape Cod industry.   On top of that, we'll get to enjoy some great food in the main dining room, courtesy of CBI and meet new friends through the CCYP network.  Cost to attend is $10 and receipts will be available.  Please RSVP by email to capecodyp@gmail.com 

 Membership's Growing!

Our membership has hit the 375 member mark!  Everyone talks about how there are no young  people on Cape Cod, but we're finding that is just not the case.  

We're hopeful that our organization will continue to grow thanks to the support of local businesses and community leaders who see this group as the next generation of Cape Cod Leadership (and rightfully so, we might add!)

Breakfast with the President

 Next up...Mark Novota, President of the Wequassett Inn Resort and Golf Club.  As the head honcho of one of the premier vacation destinations on the Cape, Mark will speak on one of the most important industries to the Cape Cod economy - the Hospitality industy.   Mark will speak at the Hearth and Kettle in Hyannis on April 10th at 7:30 am.  Cost to attend is $20 and includes full breakfast.  Please RSVP to capecodyp@gmail.com .

Hello out there

Hi from the Cape Cod Young Professionals (CCYP) group! 

We're one of the newer bloggers here at good ol' Cape Cod Today and thanks to all of you who have sent warm welcomes. 

Over the next few weeks, we'll be blogging on info about our upcoming networking events, strategy planning for 2007, our "Breakfast with the President" series, and our first big social event (details not finalized, but it will include a trip to Beantown this summer to catch a game at Fenway!)

We're a new group - a little over a year old - and have about 325 members on our email list.  As our all volunteer group navigates its course, we appreciate constructive feedback, enthusiastic support and help spreading the word to those who might be interested in the group. 

The #1 question we get asked is "What's the age limit?"  While most YP groups are 21-40, we figure that the Cape is a little different animal, so our answer is "young at heart."  For more information, please visit our website at http://www.capecodyoungprofessionals.org .

We look forward to blogging with the group.
