It’s that time of year for the FLEX Annual Meeting, an event where the FLEX young professionals gather together to celebrate their successes over the past year and discuss plans for the future.

This year’s event will be on Friday, October 26, at 5:30 p.m. at Karma Coffee Company in Oil City. Similar to last year, attendees can expect a fun evening of networking, with hors d’oeuvres and drinks.

A presentation will be given by FLEX leadership, covering a review of 2018, plans for the upcoming year, election of new committee chairs and officers, and the FLEX Highlight Awards. After the presentation, they will have trivia, with a variety of fun questions and prizes for winners.

Attendees also have the opportunity to get a free professional headshot taken by FLEX member and photographer Chett DeLong.

“This past year has gone very well for us. The committees have accomplished several goals, such as increasing paid membership, diversifying/expanding our events, and strengthening our social media presence,” said Rachel Stiller, FLEX president. “This well-anticipated meeting is unique in that we still take care of organizational business, but the focus of the meeting is for our members to network with one another. It’s an appropriate time for reflection on what we’ve spent our effort on the past year and it’s an exciting event to usher in our new leadership.”

FLEX would like to thank Penelec for once again sponsoring this event, and Karma Coffee Company for supplying delicious food and a great venue.

Any young professionals are invited to attend! Please RSVP to Ashley Cowles at (814) 676-8521 or acowles@venangochamber.org by Friday, October 19.
