Summer’s not over yet, and we’re not ready to let it go! Join Young Professionals Network of Howard County next week for our last summer mixer of the season at Hudson Coastal.

We’re getting together for a night of good food, good drinks, and the kind of atmosphere that feels more like hanging out than networking.

Come meet someone new, catch up with people you already know, and enjoy one more summer night with the YPN crew before we officially call it a season!

brought the heat last week 🏀🔥

The Annual Turn Up Thursday: March Madness Mixer was an absolute slam dunk. The Young Professionals Network of Howard County showed once again that nobody does fun, laid-back networking quite like this crew.

From bold bracket takes to buzzer-beater conversations, the energy was high, the room was packed, and the connections were real. Whether people came for the games on the big screen or just an excuse to hang with an amazing group of professionals, the vibes were unmatched. Thanks to Victoria Gastro Pub for hosting us!

Want in on the fun? YPN isn’t just an event...it’s a community. If you’re looking to get more involved, make deeper connections, and help shape the future of YPN, this is your moment.

And next up… breakfast. ☕
We’re swapping court-side energy for coffee at YPN in the Morning, hosted by JAM Eateries, on June 23. Fresh conversations, light breakfast, zero pressure.

☕️ Coffee, connection, and community — last week’s YPN Coffee Networking event was such a great way to kick off the morning with like-minded professionals who value real relationships over business cards.

💛 Huge thank you to Silver Diner for hosting us and making everyone feel so welcome — great space, great vibes, and even better conversations.

🤝 This is what YPN is all about. With six events each year, we create intentional opportunities to meet, connect, and grow your network through genuine relationship-building (the kind that actually lasts).

📅 Save the date! Our next YPN event is a Happy Hour on March 19th from 5–7 PM at Victoria’s Gastro Pub — we’d love to see you there.

✨ Whether you’re new to the community or a familiar face, there’s always room at the table.
