City Club May 2010 – Young Pros – 05/10/10
Younger Professionals in Corvallis:
Indispensable or Invisible?
May 10, 2010
11:45-1:30pm
First Presbyterian Church
With Chris Nordyke (State Farm)
Matt Andresen (Chase Bank and Funneli)
Molly Marcum (Samaritan Health Services)
What is the role of younger professionals in Corvallis? Are the voices of 20- and 30-somethings heard in the business community? In local government? Why or why not? Do the behaviors of established professionals influence civic engagement in their younger colleagues? How do we get tomorrow’s leaders actively involved today?
Join us for a discussion with three local professionals as they share their experiences and ideas for getting and keeping Generations X and Y actively engaged in our community.
Chris Nordyke, who was born and raised in Corvallis, owns a local State Farm Insurance agency. Chris sits on the board of the Boys and Girls Club of Corvallis, is one of the founding members of Corvallis Young Pros, and also founded SpeakerLunch.com.
